It may also be a question of concurrency either among the autoloaded application or with regard to opened tables/windows.
Does your app check for any requirements when loaded ? I.e. looking for a defined menu or some window or some other GUI condition to be true ? I frequently fall into this trap when converting "normal" apps to autoloaded apps, because the autoloaded mbx's are loaded before any workspaces are run from the command line (e.g. by double-clicking on a workspace file), and if my app require an active mapper when loaded, it'll quit every time and thus not autoload.

This file can usually be found in c:\documents and settings\username\application data\mapinfo\mapinfo\startup.wor Just add the full path lines with a "Run Program" in front of them Example: Run Application "O:\MIData\Tools\MapBasic\MBX\MA_1.1\Legal.MBX" Run Application "O:\MIData\Tools\MapBasic\MBX\MA_1.1\MI_Startup.MBX" 'etc. Also, once you've done this, remove the Autoload checkboxes in Toolmanager so they don't try to load twice. If the mbx files start loading all the time then there is some quirck or bug in the Toolmanager. If things don't get any better, then there is something else at play(security,drives not always mapping, or something else). Good luck _____ From: Mike Mayer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 12, 2005 12:12 PM To: Mapinfo Listserver Subject: MI-L AutoLoad MBXs --> List, I have a small problem with the autoload function on a co-workers computer. We have some MapBasic programs we like to use and that I have written. Once loaded onto my computer and other co-workers computers these work fine. However, on one computer the programs will not load every time MapInfo starts up. The tools have been added to the Tool Manager, and the "loaded" and "autoload" options are selected. The mbx files are stored on the server for access by everyone. Has anyone had any problem similar to this?? Any suggestions?? Thanks in advance. Mike Mayer GIS Technician Strongbow Exploration Inc.
