Where can I get a copy of it? If this is a serious question -- I don't know. It is packaged up with Butterworths (Lexus/Nexus) Australian Legal Research Library. I was told by Butterworths people that they were instructed to use it instead of a simple HTML because their parent company (at some time or another) had acquired ownership of Folio. You can get it to run on Windows XP, but it requires that the old installation be removed (at least a major part of it) and then the new one installed. Honest, that is the instructions that they send with it. This has to be done with each monthly update. That actually worked for a while for me with Wine, but when I switched to Debian Testing from RH8, it choked up and I haven't had the time to fool around with it too much. I will have another look at it in the next day or so. What kind of debugging information might be useful? Cheers, Alan > > j. > > -- > "Now, there are no problems only opportunities.
