In the instructions with the download I am confused with step:

2. Under [Window01] if you want the icons added:

What do the dots represent in this portion:
gauge01=..\..\CS_B737-200\panel\V-One!v1_Icon, 0, 0, 44, 26

I have yet to finish and test but in my entry I assumed the dots where the full path to the V-One folder I created and entered this:

gauge01=F:\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\SimObjects\Airplanes\CS_B737-200\panel\V-One!v1_Icon, 0, 0, 44, 26

Am I even close?

Please, never mind. I figured it out. Thank you for this wonderful addition. Now I need to locate the one for the 727.

Glad you got it working.

I should go through an explaination anyway to clear things up.
The line: gauge01=..\..\CS_B737-200\panel\V-One!v1_Icon, 0, 0, 44, 26 should be copy-and-pasted as is.

FSX interprets ..\.. as follows:
From the root folder (..\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X) go up two folders (\SimObjects\Airplanes) then use the explicit location (\CS_B737-200\panel\V-One).

While ..\..\CS_B737-200\panel portion is not nessesary in the -200 installation, it is very important for the -200ADV, C and F variants.

It was much easier for me to provide a single line that would work for all 737 models and have only one installation location.

Hope this cleared-up some questions for some of you  :)
