Hi Justin and Warren,
Thanks for the note about WampSevrer. Looks like a great utility. I installed it without any luck. It appears to install. There's a c:\wamp\www\index.php file etc however the Wampserver won't load to configure it as per the wampserver help/instructions page. The only item to choose from the start and app menu in vista is "start wamp server". The windows icon says that wampserver is offline.
Any clues?
Thanks again, Mark.
