In that case, you need to -- very carefully -- make sure you transcribe
exactly the message that you see on the screen.

The message on the screen is (I typed it over):
<snip>
You shouldn't ever have to retype the message. Just paste from the DOS
box (or "Command Prompt"). It's easy using QuickEdit mode.
You select a rectangle of the text by selecting with the mouse, then
using right-click to put it in the clipboard.
If that doesn't work, you haven't yet enabled QuickEdit mode. Use
right-click on the DOS box's title bar. Choose Properties. Select the
first tab, which is Options.
You should then see a selection box called "Quick Edit Mode". Turn it
on, and you won't have this problem again.

Hi Dave,
thanks.
but the message is not in the DOS box (or "Command Prompt").
I do run the program in a DOS box (or "Command Prompt"), but the error
is a windows dialog box.
I can not select in this dialog box.
kind regards,
henk-jan
Whoops! I agree those dialog boxes that don't support select/copy are
a pain. Sorry my response wasn't applicable.
