I've been trying to download version 1.130 but keep getting a message stating "the feature is on a network resource which is unavailable" I've tried installing the patch and the full version. Neither will complete and I get the same message for both. One note: even the "full version" says it's a patch. Anyone know whats up with this?

I had the same problem, guess it is universal. Hopefully they will fix today or tomorrow

Yup - same problem here.

I've been writing computer system software for 40 years now and the real world never fails to interfere with new software maintenance/release. This is probably a quick fix once a CarveWright SE addresses it.

There's are sayings in software development circles:
1) new software fixes old problems and introduces new problems; and
2) God created users to generate test data for programmers.

the link for the full install points to the patch. Try this: http://www.carvewright.com/downloads/designer_1_130.exe

you will need your original CD to complete the install. If you installed from a network drive, you'll need to reconnect.

It appears to me that the "path" that it is trying to find itself at is one directory too deep. Simply navigate down the path and look for an ?????.msi file with the current date and time that is when you first tried to run the install and double click it. It will then install from that ?????.msi file. The question marks are because the file name changes. You will likely find the msi file in C:/Documents and Setings/username/local/temp folder, but it may be different on your system.
