hey cr1776,

thanks for the response.

i tried to do what you said, i entered:
Code:
dumpprivkey 16in5R5UH4LkbA9hhvU2z6ZGYHPxyve67
in the Console,  but it came back with:
Error: Please enter the wallet passphrase with walletpassphrase first. (code -13)

what is this? my wallet password? i tried
 
Code:
walletpassphrase
and it didn't work. i got:
Error: Error parsing JSON:it

what am i doing wrong?


Yeah, you'll have to unlock it first. You didn't put it in <> did you?
