Thanks, everyone. There is so much help here.

I tried to move the V4 material manually into the P8 runtime (Still don't know what a runtime is or why it is called that) and unfortunately when I opened P8 to look for Victoria in the Library I could find ONLY the material labelled Poser 8.

I suspect I will have to reinstall P8 again.

Yes, also noticed that the instructions for installing the V4 is to load it into P8... so it seems that dosen't work. I have to directly inticate that it should install the P8 runtime... is that right?

Thanks again... Just another happy day learning :)
