Jan-13-02, 02:23 AM (EST) 1. "RE: I'm having a problem with Justin's SD9. " I am not big into the .eng files, but you might try the following:1. Open your *.eng file with wordpad.2. Press Ctrl + F or click the binocular button to initiate the Find command.3. In the Find dialog box enter 'CabView' (no quotes) and press Find Next, the following will be highlighted by Wordpad: CabView ( name.cvf )

The red text above must be the same as the name of your *.cvf file in your Cabview folder. Just rename your *.cvf file in the Cabview folder to be the same as the name in the line above and it should work.NOTE: The name of the file won't be 'name.cvf' this is just an example.Hope this gets you back on the rails.kwk100 Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
