Re: Windows 2000 Question

["Benzenhafer, Dave" <DBenzenhafer@HOUSTON.DEEPWATER.COM>]

I tried the regedit fix without any success. I have looked all through the
sqr.ini file and could find no default output directory. I checked all of
the Preferences in Visual Sqribe for anything that said C:\temp.

Can anybody point to how to change the Default Output Directory in Visual
Scribe?

As I mentioned, this was from the University of Houston, posted 9/4/01 on
another listserve.



A simple registry fix on Windows 2000 machine did the trick for University
of Houston.

The registry hack to solve this SP2 / Windows 2000 Application Update
conflict with SQR report.  After installing SP2 and/or Windows 2000
Application Update, just open REGEDIT and delete the following key branch
entirely:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session
Manager\AppCompatibility\sqrw.exe

We were having a similar problem running sqrs with PeopleSoft.  PeopleSoft's
resolution is to create a new folder under sqrbinw called binw and move the
file from sqrbinw to binw.  Then we modified SQRDIR and SQRBIN in our
configs.  This worked for us both on 2000 machines and the older Windows
versions.

There was also a solution provided by the University of Houston which
involved a registry fix.  This fix would have to be done on each client
machine, so we chose the other route.  If you want this fix, I can send that
to you also.

I am using Visual Sqribe 5.0 with SQR Server 4.3.4 and have recently
upgraded to Windows 2000. Everything seems to work fine except when I try to
save the file, I get an Visual Sqribe error message that says "an unnamed
file was not found". I can use the Save As but then have to close and reopen
the file to work on it again. Also a MFC99.tmp file is created in the
directory in which the sqr file resides.

Has anyone run into this problem? Is there a setting or file I need or is
Visual Sqribe 5.0 just not compatible with Windows 2000.
