a techincal note:

In the last official release of VWD, I made some changes to the official VWD *start-up scripts* (and only those scripts)  that added some checks and warnings to the start-up process - to help verify and trouble-shoot the generally rough-edged initial installation process. I also encrypted them (from *.dsa to *.dse).

This may make the advice that Gerald posted above a bit confusing, as there is no way a user of the latest VWD version can read/or edit the start-up scripts in the way he describes above.

The start-up script source-code is (and has always been) available to Gerald, and the general operation of the core functions of the scripts are *exactly the same* as the original V1.x versions. I just added some start-up checks and messages to help users that were trying to get things working after the initial installation (mostly verifying the paths to the EXEs). To be honest, I still don't know if Gerald is/was aware of this detail, regardless my mentions, so please don't be confused - just ask if you have problems.

In addition, if you happen to have them, the original VWD version 1.x scripts should work with the current/latest version,if the paths in those scripts are set properly.

best,
