BDT and the dictionary editor are working here. Check versions of everything. Consider upgrading to Windows 7. If Rocket is still stuck, consider wiping all drives and installing clean copies all around.

I do have a ticket open with our VAR for the dictionary editor and I'll keep mithering for a solution from Rocket through them and likewise, if they find a solution will post it. The 'promise' of the Rocket branded eclipse based tools is tantalising close to a 'nice' development environment. There's an element of wanting them to succeed so I'm prepared to beta test (especially as it's free) but they should be upfront about its readiness to be released to the market.

I just asked Rocket for advice on the issue, but I suspect the usual problem; too much technology that doesn't work for too many people (client environments). :-) I could never get the U2Logic BASIC editor to work properly either, and they spent a fair amount of time trying to help. I guess your problems illustrate the issues with client software; it mostly works (so you always get comments like "it works fine for me" from help sites) but doesn't always! Your issues seem to stem from the newness of the product. I've had the same kinds of problems with other MV development environments. Why don't you contact U2 support. They're really pretty responsive and tenacious about tracking down problems and fixing them. If Rocket is able to help with me I'll post the results and I hope you will too, because any of us using this product would never expect the results you're getting, no matter what our client configuration is.
