Hi Bernard, Thanks for answering, I was being sarcastic and did not expect a fire and forget to install, but at least one that didn't entail swearing at inanimate objects,, software and companies big and small. .
What I actually hoped for was a pointer to the de facto thread that means I don't have to spend days looking for problems that others have solved There are lots of threads but I have yet to find one that is definitive for the latest version or at least 1 version back. Like I always say - developers should always eat their own dog food (to personal friends I don't use the words dog food - you know what i mean?) I will look for a thread by you and expect that it should be the latest unless you say otherwise - you didn't say if it works on the latest yet though - which version of indy should I use?
