Topic: Crash - Command mode -> Text registers (1 of 7), Read 47 times Conf: Error messages, Crashes From: John H Date: Wednesday, May 05, 2004 01:39 PM Hi, I didn't hear back on this when sent to support@ so I figured I would reiterate here. I am able to recreate the crash on demand by doing the following: 1. +/ 2. reg_set(nnn,"text") 3. enter 4. click help -> text registers 5. enter This occurs in both 32 & 64 bit versions for me. I have error dialogs (png) captured if they would be any help. -- John VEDIT SN: 95651 VEDIT (32-Bit) Ver. 6.12.1 05/04/04 VEDIT Pro (64-Bit) Beta Test Ver. 6.12.1 05/04/04 Windows 2000 (5.0.2195 Service Pack 4)

It seems to have to do with the position of the command prompt within the window. If the prompt isn't at bottom (e.g. after a window resizing or a Win_Clear() ) there is no crash. Christian

Many menu functions do not work from Command mode; we will either fix it or disabled the item when in Command mode. However, we might not make the fix in time for the release of 6.12.1. Ted.

I actually go to command mode first then do the Reg_Set, then with command mode still active, help->text registers. > Interesting: If I task-switch to another application and back to VEDIT > before the all seems to work fine. I've tried a few variations, one variation I don't get a crash, but get jumbled information in the T-Reg display. -- John

No need to test this further. It is already at the top of the to-do list for this week. Ted.

My guess there is another way to check on the T-Regs while working in command mode. The menu item was my first stab, it's nice for a comprehensive view and would be useful IMHO to have available while in command mode if possible. > However, we might not make the fix in time for the release of 6.12.1. Not a show stopper for me. I've learned to avoid that item now. -- John
