    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
