You didn't say there was an error or anything went wrong. I'd recommend ie
developer toolbar over show_all_objects. The link is on the FAQ site.
Otherwise, are you having problems?

I am a new user to ruby/watir as well...maybe we can get through this

Basically, I did the same thing...launch irb and type commands to see what
happens. It was my experience that if it worked in irb, it worked in the
script. However, I am using ie6. I haven't tried ruby/watir with ie7
yet...
In irb, try using the ie.show_all_objects. This generates a table of all
the objects on the current page. This was helpful for me to build the list
of objects for my script.
Maybe using a later version of watir is required? I am using 1.5.1.1158.
ruby -e 'require "watir"; puts Watir::IE::VERSION'
1.5.1.1158
ruby --version
ruby 1.8.5 (2006-12-25 patchlevel 12) [i386-mswin32]
