Mick,

If you click the 'Help' menu then 'About' a message box should appear with
the version number. Current version is 0.90. If you don't get the message
box at all then you have an old version.

Also, I have added a setup file to the download now which should eliminate
the problems with installation.

See www.wbtrader.com to download the latest update.

Regards,

John Avis
