Not all VOR are DME equipped. Same goes for ILS. That is why you only see three horizontal orange dashes.

Suisiadle! I'm trying again to to ILS approaches in 2.3; Too many fixings to do to get the a/p to work properly in 2.3; But most of the time my DME window doesn't display anything? Must I tune something somewhere?

Thanks Mark.

ps:I had to edit this post I wasn't sure which vers. I had installed Now Thanks Marc for answering my post regarding this. Now back to my issues...in 2.3

You need to tune the NAV 1 radio to the ILS frequency of the relevant runway.Assuming it has DME capability,the DME window should show the distance.Check the Map dropdown for the airport to see its frequency and if it has DME :)
