Re: [PEDA] Bill of Material Report Problem
JaMi, Yes, XTRA looks like 99SE without the simulation servers but at that price maybe it's a full packaged 99SE reborn as a 'low cost' alternative to DXP. Since I never use simulation anyway it would be a great buy if Altium would ever release an SP7.

[PEDA] Bill of Material Report Problem
Hi, I was trying to generate a Bill of Material (BOM) report for a schematic and got: An EAccess Violation error occurred in BOMDLL.DLL This is not a new schematic. I had generated BOMs before with no problems. I have 99SE with SP6. The schematic is in a MS Access Database format and is in one of 10 folders under the Documents folder. As you can see there are 10 different boards in this project and I have never seen this problem before. Fix- After several try's including rebooting, and repairing the database with no results, I created a new folder and copied the schematic only over to the new folder. I then ran the BOM report with no problems. I compared the .cfg in each folder and they are identical. I then copied everything else in the old folder to the new folder except the schematic, .cfg, and BOM. I ran the BOM report again with no problems. I tried the original folders schematic again and still got the error. Any ideas on what is causing this? Regards, Steve Smith Product Engineer Staco Energy Products Co.

Re: [PEDA] Bill of Material Report Problem
Steve, I had this very same problem not that long ago. The problem seems to be something in the .cfg file. I went through umpteen re-installs and other trials trying to solve the problem but it only went away when I deleted all non-essential files including the .cfg file. At the time Protel had no ideas why but they were interested in my file to investigate, I don't know if they found anything or if tech support could interest a programmer in looking at the issue at that time. When you state that the old and new cfg files were the same, did you base that on a binary comparison or a text comparison? It could be something that doesn't show as text. Sincerely, Brad Velander.

Re: [PEDA] Bill of Material Report Problem
Steve, I haven't received that Protel mailing yet. Protel mailings with me are sort of hit and miss. I commonly hear about mailings on this list but never receive them myself even though I know Protel has all my current contact info. Sincerely, Brad Velander.
