If you have 4.0 in your local download directory, you should be able to re-run 'setup.exe' and point it to that directory to see the packages you have there. You can reinstall the version you want that way. Otherwise, it looks like it's still available on mirrors, though 'setup.exe' won't see it automatically. Download it (with 'wget' or similar tool) and put it in the proper directory in your local download directory and follow the prescription above. A complete problem report would likely prove more productive in the long run for you though, since you'll find each time you run 'setup.exe' in the future, it will automatically upgrade 'gnuplot' on you. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
