Hi, It sounds like you need to re-install just the server for the text editor. Click on the down arrow to the left of the file pull-down menu and select servers. Click Menu, select Install, then locate your Client98 folder and look for the text editor. I am using Protel99, and the directory structure is a little different, but I think it is in a sub-folder of the Sch folder. You may then need to start the text editor, although it should start automatically.

It also halts when creating a new text file or generating netlist. I guess the text editor server in Protel 98 has problem. So I unstalled Protel 98 and re-installed Protel98 and its service pack 3 to my PC, but the problem still happens. The operation system on the PC is WinXP Pro. I know that re-install WinXP and Protel 98 will fix the problem. But re-installing WinXP often makes me lose something. Does anybody know how to solve the problem without re-installing the Operating system ? Thank you in advance.
