[quote="WEBMISSIE"]I could not get it to work on my local machine running windows 2000 server and IIS. I posted to the forums several times but was never able to get anyone to help me figure out why. I had to put the program online to get it to work for me, I use tera-byte.com and they are charging me about $15 a month for the space and the database.[/quote]

I know I had to struggle to get it to work on my W2K development box, but in the end I found that most of the reasons it didn't work were due to my own oversights--although, I do think that the way the software is packaged and the way it's actually installed are sort of odd.  You have to really pay attention to the directory structure during install, or it's just not going to work.

If you ever give it a second shot, I'd be happy to walk you through it.  It's really not hard at all, once you've gotten over the hump.
