Thanks blake,

I will run the setup again later to take the latest versions of
everything and check that i contains the necessary dependencies at the
correct version. i am on a pretty slow connection at the moment so
might leave this until i get nearer a faster one.

thanks for all your help; i will post again once i have the latest of
everything.


Mike

PS apologies for the formatting of the last e-mail; i sent it from the
web client.
