Wheww, glad you guys are on top of this.  Proved to be less to this than met my eye at first.  Kiss (actually a somewhat rhyming term) off MapQuest.

OOps! Must have clicked something wrong.  Seems OK now.

I D/L'ed version 94 about a half hour ago.  It has now been rebuilding the database for nearly 20 minutes.  Am I too impatient or is this too long a wait?  I have a screen saying "preparing database for new data" and the green progress marker is moving across the white progress bar.

Oops!!  Let me rephrase that.  After I did things correctly, I'm up and running again.  Thanks :)

No joy doing that either Demious.  I changed the file name as you pointed out and added it to the PlanG files in documents & rebuilt the database but the tabs across the top of the map are still not available.  I wonder if perhaps this is because I am running P3Dv2.2?

I can't move any data into the FSX file.  The info on the P3D folder shows that data is in there but nothing shows up when I open the file in notepad, only a window saying the program is not responding.  I can open the FSX file in Notepad and see some computer code.

Tim, sorry to keep bothering you with what must be a pretty simple concept for you , but I have no idea where to even find those files.  They do not show up when entered in the Windows Start Panel.   Yes, I have "display hidden folders and files" enabled.

OOps! Just found them.  I'll let you know how things work out

Uhh, uhhh, I'm not the most computer adept of people Tim.  Do you mean for me to copy the data found in the Plan-G  P3D folder found in "My Documents" into the FSX folder at the same location?

Hi gang.  Just D/L'ed a new version after my move to P3D.  I'm running W-7 64 bit, no FSUIPC installed.  I cannot access the planning menu ribbons, they are transparent.   I have built the P3D database.  I am planning to use the program as a stand alone--not connected to P3D itself.  Any help would be appreciated

Ok Tim, I'll check around further on this end.

Here are two other shots showing the location of the xml file and the xml file as written:

Here's a shot Tim.  Sorry about the size, Imageshack is not being cooperative today.
I have tried using the IPv6 address as well as the computer name.

I'll send one in a little while.  Thanks Tim

No joy Tim.

I've got Plan-G installed on my W-7 computer and am trying to connect to FSX in my Vista 64 bit computer.  I am using the IPv6 protocol.  I have installed a simconnect.xml file in the same folder as my fsx.cfg file.  Here is the simconnect file I wrote by copying and pasting from the manual section 10.2.2

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>
<SimBase.Document Type="SimConnect" version="1,0">
  <Descr>SimConnect</Descr>
  <Filename>SimConnect.xml</Filename>
  <SimConnect.Comm>
      <Disabled>False</Disabled>
      <Protocol>IPv6</Protocol>
      <Scope>link-local</Scope>
      <MaxClients>64</MaxClients>
      <Address>fe80::c94e:603b:d9c3:d6b 1%10</Address>
      <Port>4506</Port>
    </SimConnect.Comm>
  </SimBase.Document>

I have tried using the above address in the Plan-G options panel and simply using the computer name.  I still get the "time out" screen.  Yes, FSX is running at the time.  Do I need to be in any certain window in FSX before trying to connect Plan-G?
Any other ideas as to what I am doing wrong?
