System crash in 99SE

Jun 28, 2007 8 Replies

I often got fault like " cant`t open file " when I working after some time.( think it have to do with auto save) I have traced it to the spreadsheet module. When I do some change in spread`s settings ( header & footers ) I get the error when I try to save.



Anybody have some ideas wath to do? Running on an XP



Mail is welcome tommy(at)hellmertz.se



Thanks



You've updated Protel to Service Pack 6 right? I still get a Windows error "event" (Windows sounds) every time I close 99SE, but only under NT4, Win

2000 or XP. Protel crashed hourly under Win 98, and slightly less frequently under Win ME.

I'd suggest turning off autosave as it slows things down. Also, lowering the Undo stack size can sometimes help.

Yes I running SP6. Have same experience as you under W98.

But there chould be somebody ho know what cause this problem. I can reproduse the error, as I describe erlier. In spread, edit e.g header and footer, then save document, now it crash!

Just a suggestion- I do it with the old Client software... I save the XLS first, then open it up in Excel and work on it.... Client never crashes in XP.....

Yes that is what I do right now, but......... I have tryed to solv this problem erlier. Finding this site gave me new hopes :-)

Protel's fix for this type of stuff was to release a new version, which was Protel DXP.

Try posting to a newsgroup that cares.

**That site** is practicing deception (as do *most* web-based access points to USENET).
