Hi Magnus,
 
Thanks a lot for the info. It works! I am still facing some issues related to rights when I do not run PG as a service. Could you help me by providing the documentation to do the installation of pg8.0 by hand.

to windows. The only other difference is you have to register it as a
service, vs on unix you put it in /etc/rc.d.

The llink for the archive is
 
Awaiting your response.
