I don't understand anything in that last link. I can't get any useful info out of it at all. Am I being thick?

Whilst on the subject has anyone got either this

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331307913667? ... EBIDX%3AIT

Or the cd version.
Are either any good ? I would prefer the book unless the cd is better.

I believe it's very similar to Elsawin. Both will be good references for any job.

Elsawin is cheaper to buy through eBay but it's a little more difficult to get setup for the first time, although if you read the instructions carefully you'll be fine.

Thanks I will have a look at both options . Are they both aimed at the trade or DIYers?

But it doesn't work with Windows 8.1. Or at least, not with mine.

Went for the Bentleys hardback option in the end, mainly due to a major case of computer incompetence on my part. Oh and a state of the ark computer.
It arrived today and having studied it at length I can confirm it's definitely a book full of words, pictures and other technical sh*t!
Just thought I'd post to help others make up their minds which to get.
