When I try to run Application Wizard, I get "Error 37 - 17"
When I press F2 to use the Dialog designer, nothing happens.
Nothing happens when I click the other tools in the Tools menu.

When I try to close VDS 5 I get this message:

"VDS has caused an exception of class "EAccessViolation".
It may be wise to save your work, close VDS and then restart it."

Problem is that I can't even shut it down.

BTW, I'm running Windows XP with SP1a.

VDS is working now, but I still can't get the Dialog Designer to work.
When I press F2 to open it nothing seems to happen. But I can see it in the list of processes. And it is using 100% of the CPU. Sad

There also appears to be a bug in the Project Manager.
When I open a project and tries to compile it I get an error message saying it can't find a Resource file, which in this case is the icon file.

But when I manually browse for the icon it works even though the path to the icon is the same.

I just tried VDS 5 on my laptop with Windows 98 2nd Edition and I have the same problem with the Dialog Designer there.
And none of the tools in the Tools menu work.

Maybe we should have waiting abit more? Wink

Ok now im getting this too:

The instruction at "0x5d3219f4" referenced memory at "0x5d3219f4". The memory could not be "read".

This happens when closing vds and some times at random points.

I am using 5.0 unregistered while i wait for my key. The dialog designer seems to work fine, I also run XP Pro SP1a.

However when i run the Application Wizard and hit the dialog designer button i get this:

error 19 at line 126 support@dialogscript.com!

Hmmm

Ok i found an easy way to fix the problem...

Just enable compatabilty mode and select windows 2000 for vds.exe.
This fixes the problem, for me it seems to have a problem with XP PRO SP1a on three totally different systems. This works though on them all.

Hope that helps others.

I've tried setting compatibility to 2000. I'm registered VDS 5 and Dialog Designer isn't working here at all.
