Thanks for your reply.

The Helix part is a problem. I don't have the skill (yet) to figure it  
out. I'd like to use a Helix Kpart, standalone and used in other apps.  
I'll be trying again this week for a pure Helix build instead of  
integrating it with KMathTool. Can I use the Amarok code for this?

Thanks for your reply.

I got very p-off with myself and tossed the baby out with the bathwater  
when I upgraded to AMD64. I have been having trouble with my dail-up but  
will try to do a svn co tomorrow and reproduce the work I'd done already.  
I looked at the Amarok code and it looked the easiest route, but dug  
myself into a corner. I also looked at the Helix code but it was to  
complex for me. If possible I'd like to create a standalone HelixKpart  
that can be used elsewhere.

OK to contact you off-list?

Kind Regards

Trenton
