John: I'll try my copy tomorrow and post here with results. My system is XP and I have the General set installed but I do have a seperate copy of LV. I seem to remember that this CD sometimes loads funny (nested files). I reccomend you go to the Depot at www.spwaw.com and post there also, its a sanctioned site exclusively for SPwaw. More later.

Sounds like you could manually move the files to the correct directories and it should work.

Manual file move was it. Took a few tries but now it flies. Thanks guys! Come by for a brat and a beer!

Your welcome, I also passed info to Alby. Now drop on over to the Depot, that's where most SPwaw people hang out. We have lots of real good info there. MATRIX won't get mad if you do.
