Hi all,
Did the advice bellow and it still happens, If I do not delete the pcb
preview file before re entering protel, I get a read error in a PCBPrint.DLL
and the search function complains of no documents of type PCB found <shrug>
I can open them from the explorer pain.
Any Ideas before I am forced to go back to Protel 98 ??
Regards,
Kat.
