No, that sorts out the problem.

Now up and running. There are some issues I have found by a few minutes =
tinkering. I presume you would like feedback on them? If so should I =
post the issues here?

BTW I havent looked in depth at the project but, if its doing what I =
think its doing, its impressive :-)
I have visions of the semi-casual user of the application creating their =
own personal 'views' from the application 'database'. Is this the =
intent?=20

I also tried invoking the =
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/adobe-source/asl_1.0.17_net_setup.bat?=
download

The first part of the install went fine, but there were some cascaded =
compiler errors, AFAICS maybe just due to warnings as errors setting, =
getting conversion of size_t to long or some such in one source file. =
(Boost.Bjam finds VC7.1 standard edition on my system FWIW). I will see =
if I can fix that error and get back to you if it is what stops the =
build completing successfully.
