| So if I already have PM installed and working I just overwrite the new files over the old files ? |

Yes, everything else works fine and the changes to those 2 files is minimal.

master @TOMIC:
The last task on the README file is to modify INC_HEADER.ASP (2 changes). Is this the last step in the PM-MOD installation? Or are there any additional steps we should be aware of?

Now that you mention it there is one thing in the readme.txt file(not the html) that's important for Active Users. This keeps your Private Message link off of that. I will update the readme.html as soon as i can with that. There are some more optional bits of code in that as well but they are not mandatory for the PMs to work. There is some internationalization code there too but that's astill beta so I don't touch it myself. Of course, I do have the luxury of using the default Snitz language.

Do you use an Access database? If so I think I have a cure but can't post it for a few hours but more information would be helpful.

have you changed anything else? should i upload ALL the files in the current zip? |

Unfortunately I too have a problem with the new pm_view.asp 
It barfs at line 115, executing the Access version of the SQL string, with an ADO 80004005 "Unspecified error".
Pasting the string into an Access query doesn't work either; I get the wonderful "Reserved error (-3025); there is no message for this error."

OK, I have redone the query in a way that is, hopefully, Access friendly.

master @TOMIC:
...just a quick question to get me unconfused...
When modifying DEFAULT.ASP, what exactly do you mean by "Right above that but below "end if" insert the following"
Here's the instruction snippet.
Find: (about line 574)
Select All
if strShowStatistics = "1" then
WriteStatistics
end if
Right above that but below "end if" insert the following:
Select All
if strPMStatus = "1" then
%>
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="privatemess.asp"-->
<% end if
How should the snippet look like after the code insertion? 'preciate all the input, sir.

Here is how I have that part of the page:
else
blnHiddenForums = true
end if ' ChkDisplayForum()
end if
next '## Next Forum
end if
next '## Next Category
end if
if strPMStatus = "1" then
%>
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="privatemess.asp"-->
<% end if
if strShowStatistics = "1" then
WriteStatistics
end if

@tomic
Will this work just fine (see snippet in red)?
'----------photo album insert into main page------
%>
<!--#include file="inc_photo_album.asp"-->
<%
'---------end photo album insert ----------------
'----------- Active Users insert----------------
%><!--#include file="inc_activeusers.asp"--><%
'----------- end Active Users insert ----------
'------------- start PM insert ------------
if strPMStatus = "1" then
%>
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="privatemess.asp"-->
<% end if
'------------- end PM insert -------------
if strShowStatistics = "1" then
WriteStatistics
end if
thanks for the support!

That is how I have my code set up. I removed my reference to Active Users in the hopes that it would be easier if it was just PM refrences but it looks like it should work fine.
