Hi Robert,

thank you so much, I might take you up on that, that was something I 
mentioned a while back, about pc to pc help. I have gitso installed, so 
you could connect to my pc and show me some things, to help me learn. It 
will work as somebody from here has already used it on my laptop.

I Have been learning tonight about making copies of files before editing 
them, and deleting the copies.

Its funny really, I had intended for my last e-mail to show that I am 
getting on with things and to let you know I had learnt a bit, but for 
some reason, that didnt quite come over. No matter, I am feeling quite 
pleased with myself really for what I have learnt so far.

Thank you all for your support.

John.
