Hello Folks,
Ive got a DECWINDOWS/PAINT problem that is occasionally happening
that I would like to put before you for "fix" ideas!!
I have six .DDIF files that I'm updating/editing on a regular basis then
printing (.PS) for hard copy!!
This proceedure works much of the time,but ocassionally when I go and retreive
one of the six .DDIF Files,using OPEN command then double 'clicking' the
mouse,and 'highlighting'the file I wish to update,the PAINT window just
collapses and I cant get access to the file,I then have to go back and get
a 'backup' (from TK50 )to get where I was before and re-edit lost information!!
There is always ONE BLOCK difference (less) between the one that my .DDIF
directory holds,and the one the "backup" restored presents!!
Ive enabled the FILEVIEW-WORK IN PROGRESS,and when this 'funny' happens
I read SHOW OUTPUT and it read as follows:-
*****************************************************************************
%IMG-F-FRAMIMPER,Frame import error when importing data for frame-id 232
-DDIS-E-PHYENDINP,physical end of input before end of encoding
*****************************************************************************
Can you help????
Thanks in anticipation
Regards
Chris

In the meantime, I don't understand why you're going to a backup all
the time! Just keep a spare copy of the file!

The simplest thing you can do is upgrade from VMS V5.1 to V5.3 or V5.4. We probably fixed a zillion bugs since V1 of the product! | |||||
