Hi Henk:

  Files are generally put in the data folder set in the options. When you enter a project name, it creates a folder and puts the output files in it.
By defaul this is C:\Gearotic Thoughts\GearData

Look in there. I set the options myself so a desktop folder keep output files. I find it easier to reach. :)

Hi;

I think Art meant C:\Gearotic Motion\GearData by default, rather than C:\Gearotic Thoughts\GearData ? It's no big deal since you can set it, but my install uses default settings, and located  in C:\Gearotic Motion\GearData.

Cheers
