I got it again, same error message and I'm sure it's the same problem.
See the 3 files here ("corruptdave.pcf", and "!Auto back of dave.pcf" are
both corrupt. "Previous auto backup of dave.pcf" is not):
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/power-pro/files/0_TEMP_/
One interesting thing of note. The time stamp on the dave.pcf (which was
corrupt was 2:43. The time stamp on the !Autobackup of dave.pcf was 2:46. I
ended up having to restore to the !Previous auto backup of dave.pcf to get a
working file. I wonder how a back was done before hitting OK?
Again, this corruption occurred when I was creating a new CommandList -
"_Bar: Winzip" ( last time I had imported a new commandlist and renamed it
), so I'm thinking it has something to do with create a new commandlist
(event triggers, that maybe updates the pcf - timer maybe?) and then you ok
out of the pproconf.exe and you get the corruption. I only did about 5
different things during that configuration session, and replicating it
exactly did not re-produce the problem :(
FYI the steps I did was:
-Open configuration with *Configure Commandlist
-Clicked new Commandlist item. Typed in the name, hit OK.
-Enabled Autoshow as bar
-Created new item, of Format context =winzip. Hit ok to go back to
Commandlist window.
-Re-opened that item, set properties to hidden and OK again.
-With that item selected, choose new after button.
-Set it to just Keys (with no parameters) - On a side note I was trying to
record keys, and was unable to get it to see the keys I was typing. It
actually completely disables all keyboard input, and the only way to get it
to unlock is Ctrl+alt+del. But I don't think this problem is related to the
pcf corruption because the problem is still there (I think only a reboot
fixes this, as I've had record keys act like this before) but replicating
steps doesn't reproduce a corrupted .pcf.
-Ok'd my way out.
Hope that helps with tracing the problem Bruce. Thanks!
Let me know when you have the files, so I can remove =)
