[Ifeffit] Reply

[Richard Mayes]

Are you trying to open the "data process.rar" file (the very same file you
sent to Matt) with Sixpack?  Athena or Sixpack can not do that, you must
unpack the file to access the individual files it contains.

To solve the "*Cann't execute Grnd.exe to open the graphics window"*
problem, follow the suggestions from Matt posted below (which is the initial
response you recieved from your very first post - read the last sentence
very closely, that is the question you have yet to answer; without these
answers no one can help you):

Some suggestions:
   -  Try clicking on "runner.exe" in the Ifeffit bin folder.  A
simple selection box should pop up and you should be able to choose
Athena, Artemis, etc.
   -  Trying clicking on GrWnd.exe in the Ifeffit bin folder.  A
window should pop up.
   -  The installation was not complete, or got moved somehow.
Reinstalling might help.
If the solution isn't obvious from those, let us know what happened
for each of these steps.
