Hi Larry,

Do you know a workaround for this?

Thanks

Was that automatic or manual roofing.
Seems like an easy fix to me.

You must be kidding, I am not sure if Larry has a workaround but I bet you you 3 donuts and a snickers bar that I do.

Automatic roof return with extension.

[perryh]

Post the plan so we can find out for sure.

Here's the plan.

Yep, maybe auto roof returns are broken, I am not sure since I don't know enough about auto roofs. I did them manually with no problem. I got what I wanted with no problem using manual roofs, easy peasy, maybe 30 seconds.

Just change the return to gable and it works

No. I saw it mentioned in another thread and believe the CA folks are on it but can't be sure.

Ah there ya go.

Larry, because most people just aren't having the problems you are. It's not you its the machine your working on. I have to get a new system every couple of years to keep up, and yes it does cost but just part of the being in this business.

Maybe you're right. I'll remain curious - that way I get to learn more instead of pretending I know.

And Perry makes the solution mucho simper than I.............. nice job P.

[perryh]

In this case it wasn't the machine, but the setting, That's why posting the plan takes out all the guessing

Just called tech support. X5 should run fine on XP 32 bit so maybe now we can continue dealing with facts instead of conjecture.

Jintu, If you're getting the same error as I they suggested reinstalling the Visual C++ package, HERE'S a link hope it helps.

that xp update is good for your system, I still would upgrade if I were you. Its just old. it doesn't matter if you do or don't, just a suggestion. take it or not, just trying to help. and I was partially correct but the longer you wait it will get worse.

[HumbleChief]

Perry,

Appreciate the advice and have to admit I'm pretty sensitive about upgrading because I simply cannot afford it. The economy hit me really hard and I can't afford anything, now or for the near future, and I'm not being hyperbolic. I'll upgrade when I'm financially able.

In the meantime I hope this thread helps those still running XP.
