Thanks for the info, which makes sense.

I'm just trying to figure it out first, rather than raise a new, perhaps uneccesary post. I'm just trying to follow the steps in the wiki

It's crashing, something about not finding a language. I'm trying to redo all the steps, but that was why I was asking about needing an installation of the actual application (which of course doesn't make sense) - unless it's needed for the databases.
I can't remember exactly how language localisation works, but clearly I've missed something, probably some path to where the language settings are. If I can't figure it out - I'll shout

Yes, I suspect that the card isn't playing ball. If the settings were wrong, then I would have thought everyone else in the uk using Astra 28.2, but using a different card would be shouting.
Since perhaps not many have the S500, I thought I'd have a go myself - and save people time - one advantage of open source - but clearly (and as is usually the case) getting started is the major issue with any development environment.

I will take the dll - if it's not too much trouble

Thanks for the help, I know it's a pain when a noob starts off, but it's very much appreciated.

Gordon
