Hello Alan, Jeff and others
with V. 12.8b DATABACKUP contained in the PROGRAMS list upon installation.
The message "Error loading PRIOR.SQF" indicates a missing or damaged file
PRIOR.SQF but more probably a missing or damaged file "SatStart.SQF" which
stores a lot of settings when the program is configured.  Unfortunately I
didn't change the text of the error message between loading these 2 files. The files
are stored in the  DATA folder "SatPC32"  for configuration 1 and in the
subfolders CfgII .. CfgIV for the 3 other configurations.

I don't know the reason yet that causes the error, however. Perhpas it would
be good to send me the files 2 files if the error occurs. As Alan mentioned
already: The easiest solution is to store a working configuration with
DATABACKUP and to restore it with this tool if necessary.

BTW:  The path to the DATA folder "SatPC322 is displayed in the footline of
menu "Satellites". The folder "Application data" or "Apps  data" is hidden
by default. So, it is necessary to make hidden files visible  (Windows
Explorer - Tools - Folder Options - View).

Jeff,

Sorry the easy fix did not work. I had no problem with the default
PRIOR.SQF, even though I had made different priorities.  Hmmm.

I have the DATABACKUP in my PROGRAMS list.  I can't remember whether it
comes that way, or I added it to the PROGRAM.SQF file.

Glad it is working again!

73s,

Alan
