Re[2]: Stupid Installation Mistake

2000-10-03 Thread Michael S. Greenbaum

 I would suggest this: Check each of the folders' properties and
 manually change the directories where TB should look for messages for
 these folders. Only when all references to "The Bat!" in TB's
 configuration (all account information and possibly some registry
 entries) have been changed to "TheBat!" will TB stop looking for
 anything in "The Bat!"

I tried doing this with the Inbox, Outbox, and the other boxes which
TB sets up, but they wouldn't let me change the directory.  Just says
default with the ? and Clear buttons grayed (well, browned) out.  I
can change all the others, though I haven't done it yet.

 I forgot to mention in my other message, remember, back up your
 registry before making any changes.

I've never tried to edit the Registry and don't feel comfortable
trying to do it--even backed up.

I tried to delete the whole program through the Windows Add/Remove
Programs which is what TB recommends, but TB is not in the list of
programs.  That's even stranger.

Re[2]: Stupid Installation Mistake

2000-10-03 Thread Michael S. Greenbaum

 It's because Michael's .TXT file association does not have double
 quotes around the parameter, i.e. "%1". Without these the file name is
 split up by any embedded spaces so any attempt to open "C:\The
 Bat!\ReadMe.txt" from explorer will open "C:\The" instead. This can be
 corrected in Exlporer -- Tools -- Folder Options -- File types. It's
 *not* a simple job, but it is easier than delving around in the
 registry.

I can get to the File Types and find my TXT association as you
suggest. Now where does the "%1" parameter get placed so I won't have
that problem in the future?

Thanks very much.
