Under Help on the program it says 5.5.  I am pretty sure the update didn't work.   I don't know what the update is under at DAZ......I got it a LONG time ago.  :-)  This is what it says:
br_ap001_cUP-99 on the file I had saved to disc.  It was running fine on my XP SP2, but when the compatibilty trouble shooter on Win7 runs for this, it says it has made it so by making it okay with XP SP2......but it won't work.  :-(    So am wondering what I am missing in the program if I don't have the update.  Jeez, I am beginning to think I hate Win7.....having nothing but trouble trying to get things to work.   Sigh.   This too shall pass.  LOL

I got Bryce 6/etc. and didn't like it....crashed all the time for me.  So I went back to using 5.5.  Then I got Bryce 7........crashes even more than Bryce 6 did.  So I really want 5.5 to work fine for me. 

BTW, thanks for all the replies.  Makes me feel not so alone out here.  LOL
