Rev Studio and Vista

[Jerry Daniels]

Len,

I've looked at Vista and it has the same set up system as XP. You do  
have a folder where your documents are supposed to reside. You can  
discover that with the specialFolderPath function, if need be.

HOWEVER, on installing Revolution, it does NOT create the third party  
plugins folder for you. You have to do this yourself, or use the  
Galaxy 1.5 Installer to install Galaxy to create it.

All that said, the easy way to solve this problem is to create the  
third party plugins folder yourself. Create "My Revolution Studio"  
folder in your "blessed" documents folder. Then within the newly  
created "My Revolution Studio" folder, create a folder called  
"plugins" and put your "Galaxy Studio Startup.rev" file and your  
"GLX2 Code.rev" files in there. Then restart Revolution on your Vista  
machine and you'll be as right as rain.

Lemme know if you have any more problems.
