Hello,

Sorry that this has been a problem for some of you for a few days now, but I think I might have tracked down the problem that was causing compilations to fail on some Vista PCs.

I have not totally solved the problem yet, but it should hopefully work. Please unzip the attachment and put it into your Flowcode V4 directory. Run this one instead of the original Flowcode_PIC.exe. You might see a message "XXX: noticed text change" - if you do, please ignore it (but do let me know if you do see it).

Please tell me if this works for you. I'm desparate to solve this issue!

(NOTE: the attachment is too big, so Ben will upload it and provide a link to it shortly)

Here is the link to the file.

good work!

Hello,
also for me now V4 work on Vista SP2....
Thank for Your job!

PS: no "XXX: noticed text change" message.

Hallo Steve
PS: no "XXX: noticed text change" message. for me to.

regards Wolfgang

Thank you, and well done to Steve and any one else involved.
V4 now works on my PC, with no text changed message either.

One thing I did notice before and afterthe fix. The information window which displays 'Launching the compiler...' etc some times is totally white, until I click and hold left mouse key and highlight whole window. All the writing is then displayed.

Thanks, everybody.

I'm so relieved that we've found the root of the cause. One thing that you will notice is that you will not receive any messages from the compiler and linker (i.e. warnings and errors).

Now I know what caused the problem, I can now attempt to find a better solution...
