Thank-you Stuart and all for all your help which led me nowhere I'm  
afraid. There simply is no wireless connexion anywhere in the Control  
panel or anywhere else.  I guess I will have to get myself a windows  
laptop.  Even with an emulator the whole thing is flawed. I followed  
Stuarts suggestions and as usual what it said is there is not there.   
I think these emulators are a con!  Windows software through them do  
not work properly.  I am dispirited things that should be there by the  
book somehow are stripped out and simply do not appear.

Virtual PC at least on my emac installed the software.  Whereas  
Parallel I didn't even get to first base;  it couldn't even read the  
sodding CD, never mind run it properly without anything stripped out.   
What a con!

Thanks, guys,  Peter
