And one last post on this. Now it is reliably running. I'm assuming once I got a .zo of the offending module actually built, from then on I'm okay as long as I don't play around with it. Does that make sense?
And, just to test that, I deleted the compiled directory and the weird behavior comes back. I (re-)load it and hit run enough times until I get it to start and from then on it starts fine. [Although I'm not sure I should actually trust it - but it seems to be running fine after that.] Doug - done with experimenting for the day - Williams On Wed, Jul 25, 2012 at 12:27 PM, Doug Williams <[email protected]> wrote: > And, actually I was premature with the "I have a work around for > Windows XP".
