Hi, Cliff, you "hijacked" a thread (meaning replying to an email and only changing the subject). Please ask new questions in a new thread (by composing a new message and not replying).
Your email appears in a different thread in my mail client. So you might get less responses to your question. Thanks.

Have I just overlooked something simple? > Thanks for any help anyone can give. Which version did you install? Did you also install the corresponding language pack? If I remember correctly, you have to install 1. software package 2. language package 3. help package In this order. I agree, that this is unfortunate. I don't know, if this is well explained on the download page or not. If not, it should be added there, so that the user doesn't get a "surprise" of a not working local help.
