I've also seen the User tool setting of Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Default Form View cause this problem when it is a view that does not exist for a given form that the .artask is attempting to open.

Open Windows Explorer (not IE).   Do Tools -> Folder options -> the File Types tab.  Scroll down to the ARTASK file type.  It should be set to open with the ARTask Application.
 
In the Advanced button settings the Open action should point to the ARTask.exe in your user tools folder.
Action:                                      Open
Application used:                      "C:\Program Files\AR System\User\ARTask.exe" "%1"
Use DDE:                                 Checked
DDE Message:                          {blank}
Application:                              ARTask
DDE Application Not Running:  {blank}

I was hoping this was related to/would fix a small issue I was having, but no such luck.  We have a few users (very few) that when they double click on an ARTask file, get a window that just says "Invalid File".  It appears to be PC related, but I haven't a clue what to look for.  The exact same file works on different PC's (all Window's XP sp2).

Any idea what to look for?

Thanks,
Thad

Re: ArTask


Welcome to the world of the Windows Registry  ;)

Seriously .. Any program could have messed up the registry settings of the ARTask association.  I had one user load a program to view AOL ART graphics files and the viewer install only had a 3 character buffer for file extensions so it messed up the ARTask file type.

hi, what could be the reason? Some users have no association to the ARTASK icon, AR Shortcut File, command "C:\Program Files\AR System\artask.exe" "%1" sent in email by filters. But it works for 95%, and some users have told me that 'it works now' .without having done anything special ..we have had the same client this year, and the problem came at the same time as we migrated to a new version of the application. But, it's not a generall problem ...related to the pc rather than to ars I guess.
