Have looked long and hard to find a solution so if anyone can help, it
would be great.
I brought a copy of GPL a couple of weeks ago.(In New Zealand) I have
tried to upgrade to V1.2.
Have found no reference to how to tell which country version I've got. I
can only assume from the $ sign on the
package that it is the US version. In that case Papy says that the file
GPL12_us.exe upgrades from 1.0.0.0 to 1.2.0.1 but when you run it , it
says it
upgrades from 1.1.0.2 to 1.2.0.1. If you do run it , it comes back with
the
error "gpl.exe is not a valid previous version and could not be
upgraded".
I have spent many hours searching different GPL sites looking for a
solution.
Can anyone help?

Look on your cd, the updates you need are most likely on the disk in a patches folder.

Just a shot in the dark, but what country is specified in the readme.txt (in
the sierra\gpl\ folder) under "section IV - Contacting Sierra" ?
My UK version has:
United Kingdom
Cendant Software International Limited
Main: (0118) 920-9111
Monday-Friday, 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
Fax: (0118) 987-5603
Disk/CD replacements in the U.K. are �6.00,
or �7.00 outside the UK. Add "ATTN.: Returns."
Presumbly yours will show the relevant country for your copy.
Alternatively just try all the patches until you find the one that works ;-)

But it was. Thanks
