Hi Wolverine,
Thanks for that - it turned out the permissions were not writeable for those two files, therefore nothing happened when I patched them (d'oh davie).
So, I CHMODed them to writeable, then went back patched the two from ADMIN> COMPONENTS>> JOOMLA SMF FORUM>>> INSTALL ... & then did "Verify" and all seems to be working fine now.
I changed the two files back to their original unwriteable CHMOD - is that correct?
Phew... many thanks for your help, I'm glad someone knows what he's doing!
