We just upgraded several machines to Version 1.5 of WinQVT. We love the scroll bars, and the rcp server, and the new look and feel of the program. Unfortunately, we are having a few problems. Whenever we FTP a file from the UNIX system to the pc using the FTP service, the file is opened, but contains 0 bytes. This happens when we are in a Telnet session, and type "ftp <pcname>", log in to the PC, and then transfer a file. We have been using this procedure since we had the older versions of WinQVT, so it should work. Also, our news server will not talk to us. I am sometimes able to get the list of newsgroups, but am unable to read news. When I start the news reader, it tells me the machine it is connecting to, and then informs me the remote machine has closed the connection. Has anyone else had these problems ? I am using version 7.something of the WD8003E packet driver if that is important, and am running in 386 enhanced mode on a Z300 with 4mb of RAM, DOS version 3.21. I am also wearing a red shirt :-) Thanks in advance for your help Kelly -- Kelly Grant grantk@manta.nosc.mil (619) 225-2508 Computer Sciences Corp ^^^^^^^^ Important: manta.UUCP won't get to me 4045 Hancock Street "If you are given lemons.....see if you can trade for San Diego, CA 92110 chocolate" - me

I also get Packet Driver Error: 8 (SetRcvMode) MessageBox when I start up WinQVTnet. It doesn't seem to affect operation, tho. The third, and most critical problem is that it won't work in debug mode... As a developer, I operate in debug mode almose exclusively, and WinQVT causes the debugging kernel to "trip" out to my AUX monitor ... complaining about an "Window handle not valid" (type 0x0007). It seems this handle is used *all* the time, 'cause pressing ignore just brings up more of the same. Ugh!! I'd love to register, but until it will work in debug mode, I'm stuck with using MD-DOS/IP (DOS). It seems this program was not developed in with a debugging kernel... :-( Anyone at QPC care to comment/respond? -- Bill Chin NeXT & internet: bchin@is-next.umd.edu MS-Windows Programmer CompuServe: 74130,2714 Applied Imaging Lab University of Maryland, College Park *Standard Disclaimers Apply*
