Hi, what you should do is

1- install Bazaar
2- change to the directory where you want the source then run

  bzr branch lp:~vcs-imports/wp-united/trunk wp-united

that should get you a copy of the tree.

->> Question: Where can I put in the command "bzr branch lp:~vcs-imports/wp-united/trunk wp-united" in the tool? don't know?

Are you using the bzr explorer gui? If so click 'Get project source from elsewhere', 'Branch', enter 'lp:~vcs-imports/wp-united/trunk' as 'From', and choose a directory as 'To'.

Run command: bzr branch lp:~vcs-imports/wp-united/trunk C:/blub --use-existing-dir

You have not informed bzr of your Launchpad ID, and you must do this to
write to Launchpad or access private data. See "bzr help launchpad-login".

bzr: ERROR: Already a branch: "C:/blub".

I don't know what's in C:\blub, but try using a directory name that doesn't already exist.
