Hmm. You see these errors "all the time" Rod?
I don't recall ever seeing such an error. Making sure the object exists and pausing and trying again if it doesn't should prevent this most of the time. But of course there are always exceptions to the rule. We can only pause and try again so many times before assuming we're not going to get what we want. Then we should notify the user and bow out gracefully. If I remember right Aaron Smith wrote virtual View. And I'm sure he incorporated proper error checking and handling. Virtual View works fine here in Thunderbird, which is where Larry was running it. Larry. Given the name of the object (dlgResult) it is for a dialog. If you're getting this error on launch before anything comes up in Virtual view then it's on the main window creation, which is strange because it's just an XML dialog. But if the main window opens and you get it when pressing the OK button after making your selection then something in that selection is throwing an error.
Just for the heck of it I'd open the Control panel, Programs and Features.
Shift+Tab up to the Turn Windows features on or off link and activate it.
Make sure Windows TIFF iFilter is checked. It's the OCR component in Windows.
Hth,

Hi Larry,

This looks to me like an app error similar to errors that I encounter all the 
time when an app needs info which isn't ready to be delivered to it.
If you know how to open the App Manager, simply reload the app and see if the 
app then loads properly.
Alternatively, simply shut down WE with Ctrl-Insert-F4 and Enter and then 
restart it using Ctrl-Alt-W.

Hth,

Rod

Subject: An error when trying to use virtual view

Dear Listers,


I've never encountered this one before. For some reason I am getting the
below error whenever trying to use Virtual View. I have tried
reinstalling using Apget, but this seems to do nothing to help. Any
ideas please? I just hope this isn't a sign of WE falling apart as I speak.


I must say that this makes me a little paranoid. I'm thinking that there
might be a bit of sabotage goin' on somewhere <smile>. But this kind of
serious. There are just times when I find this app to be quite useful,
as I'm sure all of you do.


Any help would be greatly appreciated,


Larry
