Yes, this also was an RBASE crash. I guess if that happens with the window off the screen (maybe that caused the crash?) it leaves the invalid info in the registry. In any case, it is good to know what to do when this happens.
Thanks again, Dennis ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dawn Hast Sent: Wednesday, June 24, 2009 8:37 AM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: minimized RBASE It only happened to me once and I remember it. I was exited from RBase unexpectedly. I later discovered the reason for the unexpected exit, but not the main window position. I could replicate the "unexpected" exit, since I knew the cause, but I was not able to replicate the main window issue on a consistent basis either. Perhaps it's a combination of things and that's just the last straw, so to speak. -------------- Original message from "Alastair Burr" <[email protected]>: -------------- For me, this is not an uncommon occurrence. RegEdit even knows it's what I need so it opens in the right place. As I recollect, it first happened a few years back with the Data Dictionary. Recently it has been the main window. The solution, as Dawn says, is to change the Left and/or Top values to something more suitable - although I have never had to alter any value in HKEY_USERS, only HKEY_CURRENT_USER. I have never really discovered why it happens but my best guess is when R:Base doesn't get closed properly but there doesn't seem to be anything consistent or regular enough to report.
