Hello, There are two things that could help you in the future with this. You may want to consider installing the plugins in a location other than the Workbench install directory, see the following for a discussion of this; http://blog.exis.com/colin/archives/2004/12/23/managing-plugins-in-eclipse/ You could also export the update sites from your 1.0 installation, open the update manager, and choose export sites, then you can import these sites into 1.1, and the install will be done in one painless pass. You will need version 1.1 to connect to Mathematica 6, but there are several other new features as well, see the following; http://www.wolfram.com/products/workbench/new.html Thanks, Adam Berry Wolfram Workbench Development Team Wolfram Research, Inc Owen, HL (Hywel) wrote: > Ok, this begs the question - what am I missing in Workbench 1.1?
