I believe that this is the broken version. It's so old I cannot really recall the details. [Someone correct me if I am wrong.] The easiest fix is to upgrade.

We will release a new version soon (5.2) and I urge you to upgrade to that one as soon as your tech guy can handle it. -- Matthias On Oct 13, 2011, at 9:01 PM, Erwin Hildebrandt wrote: > With regards to the error below, we are using dr Scheme v4.2 (I know its an > old version but the tech guys at my school take months to test every upgrade > that we ask for) and we are running windows 7. > > I copied the entire error message below again: > >>> insert-file in text% error loading file (read from file failed) === >>> context === > > > > Thanks for your help > > Erwin > > On 12-Oct-11, at 7:12 PM, Matthias Felleisen wrote: > >> >> Hi -- this sounds like an old error from a couple of years ago. >> >> Which version of DrRacket (formerly DrScheme) are you using? >> Which OS?
