Thank you all for your help. When I do open 'poserstartup.py' in notepad there is no mention of dson, nor could I find anything in 'Addons'. Checking my downloads I found 'dson' for Poser 11.2 dated 2019 whereas the earlier dsons were dated 2014. I installed this ( it removed previous version ) But this version is for 64bits, the error message refers to a non-valid win 32 application. So, as I said before, I shall just delete the error message and not use the Genesis figures. Seems a silly situation DAZ offers so many excellent items.. I used buy quite a lot of this but not now, the need for later, unsupported, genesis material precludes this. I find DAZ studio a cumbersome program to use and can't be bothered to make the effort to become proficient.. Why did DAZ and whoever it was who owned Poser then split up? Was it a high level spat within the upper echelons? I can't help feeling both organisations have lost out to all our detriments. The poser / DAZ conflict is just the World situation writ small I suppose. Anyway, thanks again all and stay safe!
