[CWB] cwb under win 7 32 bit

[Markus]

Hi Andrew,

thank you very much for your advice.
But which registry is meant here?
The one from my system32 whatever or the folder that is for example 
included in your DICKENS corpus example (which I have extracted into my 
CWB-directory)?
I'm sorry for the technical inabilities but I am a student of English so 
my computer skills are limited.

Thank you very much in advance, Markus
