Hi Nath, Can you take us through what you are doing 1 step at a time.
1.2.1 is the latet non-beta release, but I would recomend 1.25 or 1.2.8 even though these are beta releases they are stable enough for most purposes. (Though I cant think off the top of me head where the latest beta's are). Still 1.2.1 should install just fine. Cheers Phil === Original Message === Thanks for the replies thus far. For starters, I am on the admin account, so I shouldn't be locked out of installing files. Secondly, I downloaded the view-pro031.zip file and am using that to install it. The website says its version 1.2.1.3.1. Still haven't been able to figure out what I could be doing wrong. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, September 29, 2003 10:19 AM Subject: [REBOL] Installation Help > > Hi, > > Which version of Rebol are you setting up. > > 1.2.8 sohuld go in smoothly. > 1.2.10 does not need an instal (but has a few things that are not set .... view desktop doesnt function, the browser path isnt set .... but sound is enabled). > > Are you installing into the same directory that the executable is in?
