Hi Jim,

Are your environment settings (PATH, LIB, ...) correct?

Jim,

please check that VX was installed in the same directory you
installed Xbase++ 1.82 in.

If VX still not working, delete the registry entries of VX. You can use
"vx20 -cr" to clear your registry. Now try again.

Does this help?

James,

Are you using the 1.9. ADSDBE Beta?

If so, that screws up VX.

You will need to uninstall VX and xbase, reinstall both but don't put 
the ADSDBE beta in there.

Vx was installed and running. But suddenly stopped working with the 
bridge errors. tried uninstalling an re installing with no help.

Starting with vx20 -cr seems to lockup. I have given it a good long time 
to complete ( do have a rather large registry) but it simply never 
returns. Better then 5 minuets now.

vx clearing automated does not work on Xp platforms, you will need to 
use RegEdit to remove Vx... this will reset the registery

Found the problem somehow I had an old copy of XppUi3.dll, probably form 
trying to update the OCX stuff. This also caused a problem with the FD. 
I had a copy of the DLL 1.82 but I can't find a copy of the lib.

Could someone send me a copy of the XppUi3.LIB dated 3/27/03

BTW whats in XppUi3.dll there is nothing in the documentation about it 
and none of my programs seem to use it.

Bridge failure?

"Bridge failure" is a runtime error

VXBridge is still full of bugs

I thought thats what I was doing.

I have even tried uninstalling and installing again.

I have not used VX much I still like my little IDE. I can develop much 
faster just using it. But VX does have a very nice debugger that comes 
in handy at times. Its just that now I can't seem to get it to run at all.

James,

 sorry for the late reply. However the runtime error 217, ... while
 loading the bridge is always a indication that an older Xbase++
 Runtime DLL or an old XPPOCX.DLL is somewhere hanging
 around.

 VX needs 1.82.294 to work properly. You can check this if you
 execute XPPLOAD VERSION in the bin-directory where VX20.
 EXE and VXIDE20.EXE reside.
