 Posted: Tue Oct 12, 2004 4:37 am Post subject: VDS Playing up on WINXP SP2 anyone else have similar problem |
 |
|
Hello
i am running a P4 2.8gig comp with 512meg of ram using VDS 5.02 registered for personal use
i have made a program and am having some real weird problems
lets say that i have an expression
| Code: |
IF @FILE(%Ptestrun.txt)
%y = @ask(Would you like to overwrite the previous run?)
if @ok()
goto dosomethingelse
else
goto evloop
end
end |
when the dialog box pop's up asking the question about .5 of a second later it automatically enters the default answer
so it is as if someone is sitting in front of the computer continuely pressing enter
now if i create a new file and simply enter only that portion fo code and run it, everything runs as it should, but as soon as i enter it into my script it goes spastic again.
there is nothing before or after this event which can possible be causing this error
| Code: |
LIST CREATE, 1, SORTED
LIST CREATE, 2, SORTED
LIST CREATE, 3, SORTED
LIST CREATE, 4, SORTED
LIST CREATE, 5, SORTED
LIST CREATE, 6, SORTED
LIST CREATE, 7, SORTED
DIALOG SHOW
IF @FILE(%Ptestrun.txt)
%y = @ask(Would you like to overwrite the previous run?)
if @ok()
goto runit
else
goto evloop
end
end
LIST LOADTEXT,LIST1
"blah blah blah
"blah blah blah
"blah blah blah program is run.
goto evloop |
anyone encountered the same issue ??
or anyone know of a workaround
it is very annoying

I tested your code here on XP with SP2 and it runs fine. The ask message box doesn't dissapear until user cliks OK.
So U need to cheack something else either in your code or another app possibly running in the background.

your first problem sounds like a debugging issue to see what is going on
i suggest that you click on the grey bar at the left of your code to "enter" a "B" - this will cause your script to pause whenever it gets there
and then you can click on the || (i think) to continue with your code one line at a time
this should help you see what is really happening around that area of your code

No it's not a problem with either VDS or SP2.
Most likely explenation is that you have used a program, or a program has changed some settings related to popups. There are also some popup killers that mistakes msg dialogs as windows and kills them such as Pop-Up Stopper Pro and SurfPal.
Check the settings in your popup killers if you have any

First off thanx for everyone's opion 
now i decided to do a clean install of VDS because i was getting very frustated 
everything works as is should now
just for your info i do not have any popup blockers running except for one which is built into the browser i use (Firefox 1 preview release)
the only other 3rd party software i run would be McAffe Security Centre
and Thunderbird for my e-mail
otherwise this is a clean machine (actually is my work computer)
one day it worked & the next it didn't =P
but anyway problem has been solved by doing a clean install of VDS (wiping all exisiting VDS files & DLL files then re-installing vds 5.02)
thanx everything for there contribution!
