I've just bought DBPro. My first job was to upgrade it to the latest version, so I downloaded the 62b patch, and ran it.

When I go into DBPro and look at "About", it still says 1.055?? What am I missing?

Also what should I do with the 62b extras download? It's just a zip file with loads of stuff in. Where should it be extracted to?

Extract the extras into the DBP folder

Yesm I installed it into the same directory... Infact in that directory I have "upgrade6_2.txt"...

Maybe the "About" version isn't updated? Can anyone verify this?

I've had the exact same issue. Out of interest did you get the Electronic download version, and if so - which one? I downloaded the 11mb version and have wondered if the patch (for some reason) doesn't work properly with that particular version.

Also for some reason now when I try various pieces of code from the code bank and run them, my comiler complains that I don't have DirectX 9.0c installed - when clearly I do.

The DirectX problem was solved 2 minutes after I posted. I wasn't using the "brand new" version of DirectX 9.0c but rather a version that came with a game.
