			<description><![CDATA[<p>Just thought I&#039;d flag up a couple of issues that cropped up when I set up R6 for the first time as a new user.</p><p>First - when I downloaded the SQL software I thought that somehow I needed to &#039;activate&#039; it so that R6 would find it when I downloaded that. I found an &#039;install&#039; exe file and ran it, but it seemed to be a vestigial file unrelated to the version I&#039;d downloaded. I kept being asked to point it at an older version of SQL which didn&#039;t make sense. Anyway, the long and short of it is that you don&#039;t need to do anything other than download the version you want/is recommended in the R6 guide.</p><p>Second - when I came to update the dictionaries I kept thinking the program had crashed. That&#039;s because the first update is huge and can take up to an hour. But you keep getting a &#039;Not Responding&#039; message from the R6 screen, which suggests something&#039;s not quite right. So I kept quitting before it had completed the task. I thought that 20 mins should have been quite long enough, and the progress bar hadn&#039;t budged. </p><p>The first problem is probably unlikely to occur again - just me being stupid. But I wonder if you might add something about the likely length of time the big updates take in the Dictionary Update page?</p><p>Cheers<br />Nevil</p>]]></description>
