5.02 install problem

I have downloaded the version 5.02. I am trying to upgrade from v 4/73.

The install seems to be going well then seems to ask for a file "1" from textpad 4.7.msi. I never had textpad 4.7.msi but an exe install from version 4.7. I can not proceed past this pint.

Any ideas?

I never seen this error before and have no idea why this happen, but to get the "TextPad 4.7.msi" file you can start the installation of 4.7.3, but do not click next and continue with the installation. While you leave the first screen of the installshield installation open you can find the "TextPad 4.7.msi" somewhere under your temp folder. Default that would be "C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Local Settings\Temp". Under the Temp folder Installshield create a folder named "_isXXX" where the X is numbers and the msi file should be under there. Depending on your windows settings some of those folders might be hidden like the "Local Settings" folder.
