Will - thanks for the input, except - all I'm trying to do at this point is get setup.exe to _download_ the new stuff. After that, I'll run the sed cmd and "install from local dir". The problem I'm having is downloading.
DA. ------ From: Will Lucas <swillie...@gm...> - 2009-10-07 15:12 Make sure on the final run of the setup.exe, you have "Install from local dir" checked. Make sure you've run the sed cmd on the previous step as well. Using the "Prev" view is always a good idea too. -W.
