I tell you what ............ that Thomas Igracki has got his mind in gear ....... not like me.

Thanks Thomas for the advice, a simple thing of copying what I should have copied in the first place to the correct drawers now has the program running as it should, many thanks.

EDIT

I should also add that after I had installed the datatypes that were included with Metaview (68k) into the System:Devs/Datatypes drawer (NOT MOSSYS:Devs/Datatypes) as well as the ones in System:Classes/Datatypes to complete the copying of files from the directories suplied by the original author that MorphOS would not start.

It just hung before the Boot-screen image.

So, I had to use the installation CD to boot my MorphOS machine to then remove those files as they were obviously interferring with how MorphOS works. I did not establish which ones were to blame or identified any specific one that was causing the issue, but if someone else want to do that they are welcome to work it out which datatype/file is causing this issue. However, I would just advise you not to copy those files as Metaview works without them.
