Thank you for the fix. Now I don't get that error message. Instead now
Exceed starts to run, but I don't get the familiar menu of opendx (i.e
edit visual program, run visual program, etc.) I am curious what is going
on now?
In response to what Suhaib asked me, the files I copied over to the
exceed directory, is everything in D:\OpenDX\bin\Exceed\user as per what
is instructed in the readme. Now one problem is that I was unable to
install everything on C:. Instead I had to install everything on D:. For
all the paths that I could find, I changed stuff to D:, are there some
things that are hidden from me that make installation on to D: impossible?
