Re: [meteorite-list] Problem With Catalog of Meteorites SoftwareProblem

[Sean T. Murray]

My guess is that this must be a Visial Basic program:

CTL3D.DLL and CTL3DV2.DLL are Microsoft supplied support files.* Normally, 
they are installed with the Windows operating system. Some programs will 
install modified versions of those files that will cause other programs to 
not function.* CTL3D.DLL is placed in the Windows directory in the SYSTEM 
directory.* CTL3DV2.DLL is also placed in the SYSTEM directory except if the 
O.S. is Windows NT (in which case it is placed in the SYSTEM32 directory).


See if you can find it on the CD, then shove a copy of it where they say: in 
Windows/System If theres already one in there, dont delete it, just in case, 
but move it out to somewhere else, maybe a 'New Folder', stick in the good 
one off the CD... If you can't find the file on the CD, I found the 
following on Microsoft Support Knowledge base:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/97361
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/113898

Both point to the DLL you can download from MS:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/platformsdk/file/3.1/w31/en-us/ctl3d.exe

SoftwareProblem




Dear Listmembers;

I am having a problem with the CD-ROM bibliography, which
comes with the Catalog of Meteorites, 5th Edition, by Grady
and others. I have ‘tried installing it on my Latitude Dell Laptop
with Windows XP on it. I tried running it in order to get the
bibliography for the Atlanta, Greenwell Springs, and Red River
meteorites. When I try opening it tells me that “CTL3D.DLL”
is missing. Does anyone know what I can do about it. I tried
reinstalling it and gives me the same error message.

Yours,

Paul H.

Sean is right about that file. I had the Catalogue
installed on an old Win95 machine and when I tried
to install it on a new XP machine a few years later;
I ran into the same problem. Being a risk-taker,
I ran back over to my '95 machine, copied the file,
noted the directory, and stuffed it in the same place
in the XP machine, and it worked fine forever after.
The Catalogue's Insight Engine will be the only
activity on newer machines that ever looks for it
or uses it.
