If you did exactly what you described, the problem originated when attempting to create a pcb file using edit plus.
A pcs file (panel configuration script) is an ASCII text file, while a pcb file (panel configuration binary) is a compiled binary version of the ASCII text script file. You can use Edit Plus to use the cut and paste function to easily manage pcs files, but you must use the visual CTK to read in the saved pcs file and re-compile it into a pcb file. ============================================= Fred Lauzus, CAM Programming Coordinator High Steel Structures, Incorporated mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.highsteel.com ============================================= -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 19, 2001 1:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [mfg-smartcam] Fatal Error with .pcb panel Importance: High Here's the pertinent lines from my User Menu: MenuName5=Sub Programs MenuPcb5=c:\sc_macro\subprograms.pcb I don't see anything wrong here, but I have one other thought: When I first constructed this panel, I added it to an existing .pcb file. When I tried accessing it in Smartcam, the list of panels was too long and I didn't see it displayed. So I saved the .pcb file as an .pcs file, opened it in Edit Plus, deleted all the other panels except my new one, and did a save-as and gave it a new .pcb file name (saved as "subprograms.pcb). Do you think I created some sort of a violation (possibly a bug?) by doing this, which is causing the Fatal error? I did think of this originally, that's why I deleted the .pcb and re-created it. However, I still used the same paths and variable names. Maybe I should redo it again and give all the files and variables new names. Or am I just grasping at straws? What do you think?

I tested it thoroughly by running it and filling in the prompts for values for the variables used in the macro. The macro is solid. I then created a .pcb panel with tokens to represent each of the variables. I was careful to type in the token variables in lower case, the same case used in the macro, and also left out the # sign in the tokens. The path to the macro in the panel properties is correct with no misspelling of any type. The panel is defined correctly in the .ini file. If you save the panel as a .pcs file and open it with a text editor, it looks fine. When I start Smartcam, I get no messages indicating anything wrong relating to incorrectly linked panels. The panel title appears correctly in the User pull-down menu. I have triple-checked all of the above for correctness. I even deleted the panel, and re-defined it. When I try to access the panel through the User pull-down menu, it crashes Smartcam with "Fatal Error: 3: Memory Error. Out of memory for process", and then closes Smartcam and I get a visit from Dr. Watson. Any ideas, maybe something I've overlooked?
