Thanks again for your help Vasili,
Sorry for the "redundant" and "unhelpful" response, I was getting tired and frustration was setting in.
I've gotten the links to the installation instructions at Wordpress.org on more then one occasion, and have read them many times.
Really my problem is not having a firm grasp of even the basics when it comes to transferring files,accessing files, uploading, downloading, ect.
I guess I need a good book on the basics.
The learning curve tends to be steep when you try to learn all this without much help.
The internet isn't always helpful either because of the glut of info, most of it being useless.
I will get it worked out, and put out a high quality blog...damnit I will!
I can see you know what you're talking about, and give you a "A" on thoroughness with regards to your responses!
Anyway I'll get my blog up and running and come back so you can take a look.
Thanks again,
Jerry
