Bob,
Mine has the same error when double clicking so I
just drag the file from explorer
and drop it into SC. You have to open explorer
anyway and when dropped the
file opens immediately. I also use a 21" monitor
and found a program called mouse wrap
that works well. If your cursor is on the
bottom tray just continue dragging on down and it
comes out on top. It takes a little to get used too
but shortens up the mouse stroke alot.
Most of you probably already have mouse wrap but if
not, let me know and I will post it.

XP you have to go thru the "explorer/ folder options" route. open explorer, then folder options then file types new enter PM4 in the extension box, then "OK" you're now back to the folder options box, highlite the pm4 extension you just added in the lower portion of panel, click on advanced button, you'r now in edit file type panel click "new" action is "open", type this in the empty box application used to perform action is ""C:\SM11\SYSTEM\ffm.exe" %1" (edit your path, and note dbl quotes in string) from an earlier post you need the %1 in there un-check "use dde" ok to all and get out this works for me with "one" error no matter what, when i start this way, my diagnostics panel pops up saying it can't find my dfont.sh2 file. bob ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, May 30, 2003 8:02 AM Subject: [mfg-smartcam] Starting SmartCAM from Explorer in XP > We have started switching our SmartCAM to Windows XP workstations.
