Anton, thanks for the reply. I should have thought about using update  
in my situation. However when I tried it on the folder that contained  
the missing file I got the message showing the latest revision number  
but no indication of having transferred the file, and when I looked at  
the working directory it still wasn't there. I've checked again and  
it's definitely in the repository. I assume that if I wanted to  
restore an earlier version (there's not one here) I would have to use  
copy.

I did also try to check that I could amend a file and update the  
repository all right but there I got a message that I didn't have  
permission to create the entry required although I do have admin  
rights. I got round this by using sudo in Terminal - incidentally my  
repository in currently a local one on my hard drive. Could it be that  
permissions are causing my other problem, and how do I start up Komodo  
with admin rights?

Regards
EricR
