While I'm not familiar with IIS4, I installed Swift last month on a 

98SE box running Microsoft Personal Web Server. I'm sure they're 

similar, so you make want to try these steps:


1. Make sure that the Swiftgen.exe is in your CGI-BIN directory.


2. Then, run the test to see if it's installed: 

http://mark/cgi-bin/swiftgen.cgi?test


If it's correctly installed a test page is displayed.


Unfortunately, that's as far as I got; I couldn't figure out how to 

call my test pages. I set-up the sws files, but I couldn't get the 

swt template to process. There's a Swift-Generator help page at 

http://www.generatordevelopment.net that the Swift-Gen author 

responses to, but I wasn't able to find anything there that helped me 

that much -- so, I switched to Flash Turbine. You can find Flash 

Turbine at: http://www.blue-pac.com


I was able to get Flash Turbine running in about two minutes, and it 

has lots of examples and fairly good on-line docs. They have a thirty 

day trial download and I believe the cost is $295 US.


If you do manage to get Swift Generator working, let me know what 

you're using to execute swt templates.
