Programming editor 5.0.7 for unicode windows XP user?

Dear Sirs

I found that the following problems due to srcvw4.dll happened again and again after I removed old srcvw4.dd in C:\windows\system32 and reinstalled the program.

It is strange that the srcvw4.dll file appears again when I run the editor.

The srcvw4.dll file properties says
this is file was made 2006/09/13.

Following the replies of this board, this
run time error is caused by unicode windows.

I am using windows XP SP2 with Korean version.

Would you update the program editor or
upload uni-code compatible old version program editor?

I lost my CD and I cannot do anything rightnow with PICAXE.

Dear friends.

I found that the srcvw4.dll problems can be solved.

I am a user of windows XP SP2 Korean version. The unicode made the following problem during installation.

There are 2 solutions that I found it works


#1. Change unicode ( somebody said in the board? )


Control board-> country and language option -> advanced tap -> unicode.. blah blah.. option, choose english (US).

The computer will reboot and you can use PICAXE progeditor.

BUT this is not a good solution.

In my case, many Korean emails were broken.

I do not know what will happen to your computer although it looks good except emailer.


#2. Downgrade scrvw4.dll


srcvw4.dll is made by tetradyne software.

It looks like a libray to help editor job.

They - tetradyne - said this software is unicode-compatible.

Who knows?

The version of progeditor 5.0.7 use 4.0.1.0 of srcvw4.dll. But this is beta version.

You can download old version 4.0.0.18 at http://www.tetradyne.com/sxdnld.htm

You can find srcvw4.dll file under Bin directory of the zip file.

go to c:\windows\system32

renanme srcvw4.dll to srcvw4.dll.o

copy srcvw4.dll in downloaded file to c:\windows\system32

In my case, it worked.

But, I cannot say it will works perfectly.

RevEd may have a reason to use this 4.0.1.0 version of srcw4.dll.



I wish happy life with picaxe!

srcvw4.dll - error / editor failure

Hmm. I'm having a similar problem with the editor. If I use the lower slider bar on my synaptics mouse/touchpad (driver 8.2.4.6 dated 3/8/06) the application encounters an error and closes. It does not happen with the side slider.

Event viewer is telling me:

Other software I have installed is Microsoft Visual Studio, Visual Basic, Visual Studio.net that might explain the Tetradyne software connection. Hardware is a Dell Inspiron E1505.

The problem I have is this error is completely reproducable therefor is obviously a problem with the editor. I'm pointing this out because you are likely to have other people over time that are going to encounter the problem and may be turned off because of it.
