Hello,

Thanks to all who replied!!
I found somebody who had the same problem. It seems that the /Update-UX
path is not on the march 2001 CD-ROM I am using.

So I am going to try the march 2003 CD-ROMs. Hopefully I will be
more successful. But I will not be able to find out before next Tuesday.

Regards

Andreas
