Re: Re-installing Netbeans - problem solved, and thanks!



This note from a very happy camper.

Moving ~/. Netbeans out of the way did the job. Netbeans is clean as a
whistle now.

I'm very grateful to all the helpful folks in this group. All of your
various suggestions have taught me a great deal and made me more likely to
be able to solve my own problems in the future (fingers crossed!)

I hope someday to be able to repay the group.

best wishes,
Lou

PS: Michael, you asked which version I'm using: it's 5.0. I'm a patient man,
don't need beta versions. the "old" projects were developed partly under a
previous version of Netbeans (can't recall previous version number, maybe
4.1) but also one or two under 5.0.
