[gui-talk] book port 2

[don bishop]

Paul,

Were you able to get book wizard to work at all under vista?

I could install the program ok, but whenever I try to run it I get a 
message saying failed to create xml document and the only control I 
have is an OK button which exits the program.

I contacted Larry who directed me to the guy incharge of development 
for the program and he was really no help at all.  I have no idea 
what could be going on there, but very frustrating for sure.

Don
