How are you attempting to run Web Update? Are you getting any error messages when you try to

run it?

Thanks for responding. I am running Web Update manually from DaboDemo,

as follows: (apologies if this is too much info)

From the command prompt, I navigate to the \demo directory, and then

issue the command

python dabodemo.py

which brings up the Dabo Demo. Within the demo, I select Edit,

Preferences from the menu, and then click the Web Update tab. I then

make sure the "Check for framework updates" box is checked, and click

the "Check now..." button.

This presents me with a form saying that updates are available. Three

changes are specified in the changes grid, each with "Change" of M and

"Project" of dabo. The files are: settings.py, ui/uiwx/dDateTextBox.py,

and ui/uiwx/dSizerMixin.py.

I respond to the "Do you want to install them now?" prompt by pressing

the "Yes" button. A "Success!" box pops up, saying "Dabo has been

updated to the current revision. The app will now exit. Please re-run

the application."

No error messages are evident (is there a log file I should be looking at ?)

I press two "OK" buttons to get back to the demo, and then close the demo.

The problem is that if I then follow exactly the same procedure, I get

exactly the same results (i.e. the same updates are still available).

(I was hoping that this would fix the problem in which, when I switch to

the \ide directory and try to run ClassDesigner.py, I get the response

"AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'dPageStyled')

Many thanks.

-- Pete
