Hi, I should point out that Bob and I are having different problems,
actually... 

since installing 4.0.10, I am now able to start the tutorial, edit visual
programs, etc just fine. It is only when I try to *execute* a visual
program that I get the "Unable to connect to dxexec" error, with
ACCESS_VIOLATION then stackdump and disconnected server. With 4.0.9, I was
getting the problems Bob describes (ie tutorial won't start), but not any
more. 

Nonetheless, I tried one of your suggestions, changing opendx so it will
pass arguments to dx. "opendx -execonly" seemed to work, generating the
following...

******************
Starting DX executive

Memory cache will use 24 MB (2 for small items, 22 for large)

port = 1900
******************

However, when I try to execute a visual program (ie, "Execute Once") I get
the errors mentioned above and in my previous post.

I am using Exceed 6.2 under Win98. Any more insights?
Thanks.
-Noah
