  Can you post a screenshot of your Workbench Project page? I'd like to see what applications you are trying to connect to CFX (if any), and also if CFX actually exists in your Component Systems list.

  Thanks. Well at least this shows the CFX has been installed and is present.
  
  Can you show the RHS of your Project page, the one that shows how you are linking your applications together.

  I don't know where I can find it but I don't use separate components only start with the first module and then update and go to the next
