From the beta release here on your DNN project page here at www.dotnetnuke.com:

I noticed your message just now.  Perhaps we were not meant to see these files for download. 

No I didn't see that - I downloaded it 6/8/06 and I was sure it said Version 01.00.01 beta.  I see it says test release... as I look at the page now.  I don't remember it saying that before - or being below the header:

Team Files (Private)

I guess that explains the problem.  Shame on my eagerness to play.

No problem - it was my eagerness that swept me past that detail.  I didn't mean to bold that sentence in my last post (a function of copyng the red text from the other page).  I hope that didn't get taken badly - if so sorry.  I goofed and appreciate you pointing it out!  Sorry to waste time troubleshooting this - but as you can see, there are several of us who overlooked that version detail in the filename.  (I actually read the documentation first for a change too)

thanks
