Seems a bit odd - could you have sent it to vfcl (ell) instead of vfc1
(one)?

We got it but had problems getting it to run - it refused to work at
all on the departmental network, and though it installed OK to my own
stand-alone pc, said pc is a bit lacking in the RAM department, and
thus had problems with the large bitmaps.  Still enough came through
for a general idea.

I am also looking at a game/'museum simulation' approach, though
since it's aimed at postgraduate students and people who are actually
working in museums, the approach should be slightly different. It's
very important it shouldn't appear patronising, though obviously it
also has to be useable for beginners (and people who know slightly
less than they think they do. . . )

I am with you on that one!

Thanks, that would be very helpful

I'm also willing to be a sounding board.

Many thanks I amy take advantage of this offer!
