Why won't my Airbus A380 flight plan load....?

I've installed the Abacus Airbus A380 into FS2004.  It has a Flight Management Computer that is supposed to pick up the Flight Plan you make on the Create a Flight pane of FS2004.   I have followed the directions in the A380 Handbook to the letter but when I click on the left LKS for Load a Flight Plan, all I get is No Flight Plan Found.    There are loads I have created in the My Documents/Flight Simulator Files folder but somehow they are not being picked up the FMC.   Can anyone help with this problem please?    
   I have been to the Abacus web-site but they don't have a Help department!!    
   This aircraft is fun to fly (thank goodness for good old FS GPS) & interesting to land

That's funny, I go to the Abacus page, http://www.abacuspub.com, click on "support", scroll down the list to "Airbus A-380" and it takes me to the A-380 Support/FAQs page  where you can also donwload the update.

If that doesn't answer your question, then the page also tells you to email the support dept.

Or, you can write to Adam Howe directly and post your problem.  Remember to provide your computer specs, video card specs, etc.  (Not that it may be affecting, but, it's good practice)

Thank you Felix - you're brick!!

I logged on to the web-site detailed on the registration p/c in the handbook, which is contact-simulations.com.  The Abacus one you detail is obviously the one to go to.  I should have thought of that & looked at the cd box more closely for an alternative!!  I am grateful to you.

I'll post back here if/when I get the problem sorted.

I think the abacus A380 blows.. dont like the graphics and I dont like the interior... and In my oppinion not worthy of being payware.. but a very neat freeware..

just my 2 cents..

Anything by Abacus (EXCEPT FLIGHT DECK 3.....and maybe FSDSv3) is very good freeware...Don't know why they charge for it..
