Thanks, I've got it working now. I originally tried EasyPHP because 
MS4W had problems on a colleagues Win7 system. I successfully 
installed MS4W and MySQL (both worked separately), but initially had 
problems with browser access to MySQL (eg with phpmyadmin) that were 
cured when I fixed a Win7 curiosity - 
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts requires the 127.0.0.1 
localhost line to be un-commented (which used to be the default on 
older windows versions).

Thanks,
Greg.
