When I said, mark the thread as solved, I meant for you to click on the 'mark as solution' button next to the response you deemed to have been the solution. This way the points are sent to the person that provided the solution (it also helps others when they are looking for threads that are solved).
For an example of this, please take a look at the thread 'BESR 2010 + VM Ware' just below this one. Thanks.
