Thanks for the get back, Rupert,
Following your instructions I could get to EDIT but couldn't find
PERMISSONS. The only options under EDIT are:
DLETE
RENAME
COPY KEY NAMES
COPY KEY NAME
FIND
FIND NEXT
(This is Windows 2000, for what it's worth)
When installing the program I merely click on a simple icons such
as "install", No option in the install program for "Administrator
with full permissions".... would I find this somewhere else?
Thanks again,
Sam
