[Qgis-user] Re:Newbie question - gml files

[Sam Vekemans]

That makes sence.
Since there are older versions running, the program doesn't know where
to turn to, to look for the files :)
... also, i have the programs running on the d: drive rather than the
c: drive, so that will also make a difference. I need to clean up my
hard drive anyway as this program needs alot of space to work in.


cheers,
sam
