Hi Dave, I followed you suggestion and changed:
ecwp://www.earthetc.com/images/canada/canada.ecw to ecwp:\\www.earthetc.com/images/canada/canada.ecw in the algorithm and it solved the problem. It seems that my other problem of ERM crashing everytime I tried to open/print an algorithm with a URL in it was solved by restarting my computer (it seems a good shut down can solve almost anything). As you can see I only edited the first path separator and was able to open/print successfully. ------------------------------------------------ Adam Inglis Remote Sensing Specialist Spatial Mapping Ltd. 1655 Knight Ave. Victoria, BC V8P 1L4 Phone: (250) 519-0294 [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.spatialmapping.com "Technology Innovator 2000" ------------------------------------------------ ----- Original Message ----- From: "david.carter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2001 7:55 PM Subject: RE: ERMAPPER-L Daily Digest > Hi Frank, > > I also received this error when trying to print an algorithm containing > URLs.
