 * Sorry I’m not really sure of version but downloaded it tonite. After installation,
   WordPress created a website page “my Blog’ blah blah….Then learned I had to get
   into administration section which worked fine but when I go to the tool bar and
   click on ‘my blog’ I get “Error establishing a data base connection” which pretty
   much stops any further work. Any suggestions?
    Thanks
