How do I repair an old rim lock?

[mr-miniver]

I took the (Victorian?) rim lock off our sitting-room door when I was decorating but now can't get it to go back together so it works! Any ideas?

What I really need is a photo or diagram showing the right arrangement of the insides- any ideas where I'd find that? I have looked online but not had any luck.

do u have another in the house if so take it off carefully and copy the other one. if not try a local locksmith,providing u havent lost anything he should be able to mend it pretty quickly. GL
