AWSOME!! Thanks again DJ. Keep up the amazing work!

DJ, I've tried creating a shortcut with your new feature (tried Windows 7 and XP) with no success. At the last step when I click "create shortcut" it gives the following error message.
Could not load file or assembly "Interop.IWshRuntimeLibrary. Version=1.0.0.0. Culture=neutral. PublicKeyToken=null" or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
What am I doing wrong?
If it helps to figure out the problem... I click "continue" at the error message and close the ARC file, then search on my computer for latest modified files, I find the shortcut has been created in C:\Users\Robo\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows. When I click on it, it opens my ARC file but does not auto-execute the robot program I selected earlier in the shortcut wizard.
Thanks for your help.
I'm unsure what that error could mean. Very strange - i'll look and see. I mean, i do understand what it is saying, but why would you get it? The file should be included with the .Net framework. Maybe your computer needs a reboot?
hey DJ Sures what is new with the ARC 8-14 everything is the same confused stress tired
mad mad
also you say that your ez-sdk is in c++but it is only in vb & c# mad
@hamada, no more entire pages of repeated phrases or images.
@hamada, the SDK is COM enabled for C++. If you are familiar with C++ programming in Windows, you'll be able to use the DLL. There are plenty of resources to help you on the internet and through MSDN.
@hamada, sometimes there are new releases with small fixes or optimized code - neither of these are worth mentioning as a major release.
Thanks DJ, We've tried it on three laptops and a mini ITX board with the same results. I am going to reload one of the laptops. Should I be running in 32 bit or 64 bit mode, does it matter?
