OK, I think (quite likely actually) that you have downloaded version1.08
from a site other than my site which means that you have the version of the
zip file with the dodgy filenames. Rename them as follows...
GUI108.EXE ... FIG-GUI.EXE
FIG-GUI108.TXT ... FIG-GUI.TXT
FIG-GUI.INI ... FIG-GUI.INI
Yes, the error message is wrong. It is actually talking about FIG-GUI.TXT.
Version 1.09 with this and more fixed is coming soon... and the version with
the correct filenames is available from
http://voices.vossnet.co.uk/a/atkins/fdg.htm
Hope this helps...
