Re: Set Access Password is missing after upgrade
Hi Roelof, Thanks for bearing with me :) On Mon, 9 Feb 2009 23:00:00 -0500GMT (10-2-2009, 5:00 +0100, where I live), you wrote: VS Thanks This is kind of what I've already tried.

Close TB Rename the groups.cfg and groups.efg files Start TB abd try it again I'm assuming group.cfg would be non-encrypted version, since I don't have it? Renamed group.efg - absolutely no effect :( Can you think of anything else?

Set Access Password is missing after upgrade
Hi, I'm a long time reader of this group but rarely write. Mostly after upgrades. Problematic ones that's it :) So here I am. I've just upgraded to 4.1.11 from 4.0.14 (I know, I know...) Now on The Bat! start I'm getting the prompt for account name and password. I used to have one some time ago but disabled it with 4.0.14 by resetting the password to empty one if I remember correctly. I've switched to using OTFE so don't need account-level protection anymore. But now this prompt is back and it does want me to enter an old password, not the blank one. After I enter one The bat! loads, but I can't see Set Access Password anywhere. Networks Administration doesn't have any accounts/groups either. When I'm checking the menu/toolbar setup - the button for password is there. But not on the menu or toolbar. I don't have any other accounts password protected (as far as I remember), this used to be a master (administrator) account long time ago. I just want to disable this prompt, remove the password! Any clues on how to do it? Thanks in advance! -- Best regards, Victor Current version is 4.1.11 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re: Set Access Password is missing after upgrade
Hi Roelof, VS I've just upgraded to 4.1.11 from 4.0.14 (I know, I know...) Now VS on The Bat! start I'm getting the prompt for account name and VS password. I used to have one some time ago but disabled it with VS 4.0.14 by resetting the password to empty one if I remember VS correctly. I've switched to using OTFE so don't need account-level VS protection anymore. The password for an account option should not be working with OTFE, so apparently you ran into a bug. The only way to get rid of the password would be to create a new account and move your messages there. In case you don't know your old password anymore, try to rename the account.efn to account.efn.old (do the same for any existing account.cfg and .cfn files) only for your password protected account of course and do this with TB shut down. You will need to create the account again and you'll be asked what to do with the current files in the matching directory. (Keep them.) That's the only thing I can think of... Thanks This is kind of what I've already tried. I've renamed the account in question's folder and started The Bat! It recreated the account folder and asked for a password. The password turned out to be blank this time. But still... I have to type in an account name every time. Any ideas on how to get rid of this box altogether? As I said I don't even have an option to set access password and from my vague memories of what Administration and Networking dialog box should look like (haven't opened it for ages) it's missing some areas there too - related to user groups etc. Would you guys have any other ideas I could try? I have big (and my last!) hopes for such a great bunch of bright minds in one mailing list! :) Thanks again! -- Best regards, Victor Current version is 4.1.11 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
saving attachments
Hi, I've asked this question in tbbeta, didn't get an answer. Maybe someone here knows anything about it? I can't seem to find a way to save just selected attachments. The only options I have are Save all, Save all to and just Save (and then I'm prompted to save each of the selected attachments). In some prior versions the was an option called Save to which worked just like Save all to but for the selected attachments only. Why did it disappear? Does anyone know how to get it back in the recent versions? Thanks, -- Best regardz, Victor *** A little boy prayed for a bike.

Re[2]: Cookie encoding problem
Hi Roelof, VS When I start new message or reply to some using template that VS uses cookie, initially editor window VS (plain text) opens just fine. Cookie is there and is readable. Only... until I activate message VS body. Once I click or tab into message body - cookie text is VS replaced with . VS Is this bug or something I could fix by changing some parameter somewhere? Would it be be possible to force TB to the correct character set with the %CharSet= macro? I've tried it but it makes no difference whatsoever. -- The Bat! 3.85.03 running on Windows 2000 5.0, Service Pack 4 Best regardz, Victor *** Experience is that marvelous thing that enables you recognize a mistake when you make it again.

Cookie encoding problem
Hi, I've just upgraded The Bat! from (much) earlier 3.XX version to 3.85.03. Now I'm getting this strange problem with %Cookie macro in the template. I have a text file with cookies, which is in CP1251 encoding. When I start new message or reply to some using template that uses cookie, initially editor window (plain text) opens just fine. Cookie is there and is readable. Only... until I activate message body. Once I click or tab into message body - cookie text is replaced with .
