basicwiz,

I'm sorry, I thought the point of the thread was that Silke was frustrated with the results from using IDL and / or GC, and stated that "it's me" - i.e. doesn't understand it. I know that some threads on this subject have had a high and mighty tone, that you **should **use GC etc., but I don't have that mindset, because:

I was at the point where Silke is now some months ago, trying to get it all to work, feeling like a 2nd class citizen because I couldn't, wondering if it was all nonsense and should I ignore it?

But I stuck at it and now I "get it". Once you get past that "a-ha, *now *I understand!" moment, your enthusiasm and creativity get a real boost. I tried to help because I think that if you have those tools and don't use them, you're missing out. 

I have tons of legacy content, but I've learned how to adapt it. Did acquiring that knowledge require time and effort? Of course. Did I get help from the threads here? Unquestionably, yes. Am I one of the GC nazis who think you're some kind of buffoon if you don't use it? Absolutely not.

Maybe I'll put together a tute on common problems encountered when switching from P7 to P8 / PP2010 and deal with their causes and remedies.
