[RBG7-L] - Re: Strange Data dictionary problem

[Alastair Burr]

Thanks, David, I hadn't thought to try v6.5++ but I now have and [F3] works fine there.   I perhaps should also have said the DD doesn't open from the menu bar, either, in v7.1 (but it always has worked).   Regards, Alastair.   ----- Original Message ----- From: David M.

I've never solved this and just don't use F3 on those rare times I have to use 6.5!!   Perhaps someone out there can our two limping machines!   David Blocker [EMAIL PROTECTED] 781-784-1919 Fax: 781-784-1860 Cell: 339-206-0261 ----- Original Message ----- From: Alastair Burr To: RBG7-L Mailing List Sent: Tuesday, June 14, 2005 5:28 AM Subject: [RBG7-L] - Strange Data dictionary problem Over the last few days, maybe a week, whenever I press [F3] to display the data dictionary the screen flashes the dictionary briefly then appears to "hang". Pressing [Esc] clears the "hang".   It happens with all databases.   I've tried reloading the databases as well as re-installing my last upgrade but neither resolves the problem.   I have also checked for any redefined keys but as the data dictionary does start I presume that is not the cause - and I couldn't find any changes anyway.   Obviously, as this has been working forever, something must have changed on my system but does anybody have any ideas what else I could look for, please?   Thanks in advance & regards, Alastair.   ---------------------------------- A D B Burr, St. Albans, UK. ---------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----------------------------------
