hi kevin,

ok upped a new version:
https://www.donationcoder.com/Software/Mouser/findrun/downloads/FindAndRunRobotSetup.exe

something really strange happens in excel - for some reason the system hotkey triggers twice in close succession which was wrecking havock.  a new check for this condition seems to solve the problem.  let me know your results.

i also implemented a special tiny helper utility which now assumes responsibility for launching documents, to avoid this problem where f&r was having wait for excel (or similar app) to fully load before being allowed to go away.

its so typical the MS programs are the worst behaved ones on their own operating system.. boggles the mind.

look forward to hearing your results and if the cursor issue is still present, which is quite strange to me.  but it could be a win2k issue like different keyboard controls.

Quick test with new version 1.05.05 at home on WinXP SP2. 

- lnk files still dont launch
- excel works fine!!!!!
- Column headings gray again on startup (Trigger version ONLY, XP vs Win2K??)
- Cursor keys work (XP vs Win2K issue??)
- FindRun now IMMEDIATELY exits no matter what file is launched... nice!
- Hitting pause/break opens AND closes window (XP vs Win2K?)

Those are the results of my 5 mins of testing.  Obviously, I cant try out this version on Win2K and I'm not sure if I will be able to try it out on 2K until Monday (Holiday weekend).  But, I should be able to test periodicaly throughout the weekend on XP.  Can you think of any system specs I could tell you that would make this easier to troubleshoot?  Let me know,

Kevin

mouser:
anyone else with win2k can give a second opinion on some of these win2k issues?

the .lnk thing is the one i absolutely must fix immediately, its driving me crazy that this one main feature of the program is not working properly for you.

can you see if there are some .lnks that work and some that dont..

if we can find some that work and some that don't it could be the clue i need.

and if you go and find these .lnk yourself and double click them, do they launch ok?

kfitting:
Regarding lnk files:

tried a bunch with both versions of FindRun... none worked.  Double clicked on them from within win Explorer and they opened right up.  Can you make a version of FindRun that will spit out a log file?  Thanks,

Kevin

mouser:
yes, if this latest version doesnt fix it im going to make a version that produces log output to help us find the problem.

but try this first:
