Hi Again, Although nobody has offered any thoughts on this problem the solution has been found. In case anyone is interested it seems to have been caused by the /Windows/Temp folder being "full" - although I don't know of any limitations on its size all we did was clear this folder and the program started working! Regards Ian

It works fine on hundreds of PCs under every Windows but one new user just tried it and he's getting a run-time error 65 (path/file access error). The first thing the program tries to do is to create a .ini file using WritePrivateProfileString and I'm pretty sure that is what's failing. The guy is running Win98 SE but I've got lots of other people using that OS without problems - he even copied the installer to his wife's computer and ran it and the application works fine there. He's logged in as Admin and had just installed it so he must have access rights, the disc isn't full. Can anyone come up with a possible reason for this error?
