I just purchased a copy of GPL (I live in the US, purchase from a US warehouse) and I'm wondering how to tell which version of GPL I have. The CD cover says it's from www.sold-out.co.uk does this mean it is the UK version or do they ship different versions to different countrys? Is there a file I can look at to determin which version this is before installing the latest GPL 1.2 patch? Thanks, Dan

The version you bought should have the patches on the disk already in a folder called patches. -- Biz "Don't touch that please, your primitive intellect wouldn't understand alloys and compositions and,......things with molecular structures,....and the....." - Ash "Dan Toloso" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:eUlV9.1102$[email hidden]... > I just purchased a copy of GPL (I live in the US, purchase from a US > warehouse) and I'm wondering how to tell which version of GPL I have.

Thanks Biz, I just found that, it is the UK version. This shouldn't present any problems though right? Thanks, Dan "Biz" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:m4mV9.112544$[email hidden]... > The version you bought should have the patches on the disk already in afolder called patches.

No it'll be fine. afaik the only thing that the country makes any difference for is the 1.2 patch, and you have to use the one on your CD anyway, so even that doesn't make a difference. Good luck with it ;-) Malc.

Don, if you're running the UK version you're required to type any posts in here regarding GPL with the Brit spelling. Using a lot of words that end in "st" whilst ignoring your Z key and substituting S should cover it ;) -- Slot Tweaks & Reviews www.slottweak.com "Dan Toloso" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:X0nV9.647$[email hidden]... > Thanks for the help guys. > > "Malc" <[email hidden]> wrote in message > news:qImV9.13320$4k6.1189069@wards... > > "Dan Toloso" <[email hidden]> wrote in message > > news:T6mV9.1142$[email hidden]... > > > Thanks Biz, > > > > > > I just found that, it is the UK version.

I'm British, and I've never used the Z key for words like "fast". -- Above address *is* valid - but snip spamtrap to get me to *read*! Bits'n'Bob-stones: http://www.geocities.com/daveb75
