ok, how did I miss all th action? Oh yeah, I suppossed to be studying....

I'm supposed to be at a very important appointment with a Mr Joshua Tetley...

Sure, here I am figuring out the problems with the WC Browser. While I'm busy at that, the 2000th post is taken by Fuzzy the multi-poster....sigh...what a thankless job...sniff..sniff...

On the other hand, that "exile" button may come in handy when we near 3000! Hint. Hint. nudge. nudge. say no more....

I may have created spam monsters.....

Well, I was invited, but seems by the time I got here the party ended. Oh well, so much for invitations. And to think, I really braved this thread.

Look what you did Elf!!!

and it seems feline did not get the 2000th post!

Hi Starone
welcome to the zoo I mean party!

Hi Java!

Its not my fault. There was no-one here to help me.

/me felt very alone earlier....

Elf - now you know how Frankenstein must have felt...

ARG!!!

I asked you all nicely to hold up the thread for me.



Oh well.

How about 10 000?

I'm *DEFINATELY* going to get that one.

/me *NEEDS* a cuddle

i missed all the fun, having a headache

dracoform wonders if someone drugged some of the chocolate

well, while starone is here, how about a group hug?

give us a chance to leap all over those naughty posters werewolf and fuzzy

at least when Doreen and I multi-post we have the good grace's to make them different.

starone - Well, I was invited, but seems by the time I got here the party ended. Oh well, so much for invitations. And to think, I really braved this thread.

i hope you arent thinking of leaving us already are you???

for one thing, i have started to make progress on the mysterios smart button problems

also we need more females here, to help stop me feeling out numbered

werewolf, what is the current state of play on your smart buttons???

the posts about your playing with your path statement are slightly worrying me.

on this machine (based on the "path" command at a command prompt) my win2k path is:

PATH=C:\WINNT\system32;C:\WINNT;C:\WINNT\System32\Wbem

i am not sure what the last bit is all about, but there is NO stardock WB or OE stuff in my path, and smart buttons work fine for me.

the smart buttons dll is called "smart.dll" and should be sitting in the dir you have WB installed into. so since it is in the dir WB is executing from, it should always be able to find it, regardless of your path statement.

what path settings are there in you c:\autoexec.bat file?

if you dont know what you are doing edit this with extream caution

Elfkura - I may have created spam monsters.....

after mint chocolate dragons, unicorns, and the merang clouds on the chocolate plannet, this is quite a small acomplishment

anyway, they are no danger. compared to Doreen and Feline (doreenitus / felinitus) they are rank amators

good to see you are back. so, will we be seeing more of you now?

feline: the posts about your playing with your path statement are slightly worrying me.

/me *giggle*
that isnt a worrying path statement.

this is the path statement from my teraterm window, split onto several lines for readability:

PATH=/usr/bin:
/usr/ccs/bin:
/usr/sbin:
/usr/java/bin:
.:
./bin:
/usr/local/bin:
/usr/at/lib/bin:
/company/users/feline/tree/devtools/bin:
/company/users/feline:
/company/users/bod/bin:
/company/bin

feline - an 'amator' is not the same thing as 'amateur' which is what I think you meant! Unless you did mean amator...but that kind of flattery will not get you chocolate...

/me is all in favour of a group hug with feline and starone

/me runs off to get a dictionary to work out what fuzzy is on about

/me thinks it is time to jump up and down on fuzzy until he explains what he means

dictionary.com -> "amator" not found

google.com -> "amator", most of the hits seem to be in russian

what exactly does this mean?
and why is "flattery" not going to get me chocolate???

Hi all

Feline: My Win2k Autoexec.bat and config.sys file are 0 length files.

The changes I made to my path were restored immediately by Loki, god of mischief.

The current status of my quicklaunch buttons is, for lack of a better way of communicating death, a complete lack of doing anything useful at all.

I have reset the quicklaunch buttons using wbconfig.exe and all is well there.

I tried to register smart.dll thinking that it had lost its way and became embarassed. I got the following:

---------------------------
RegSvr32
---------------------------
smart.dll was loaded, but the DllRegisterServer entry point was not found.

DllRegisterServer may not be exported, or a corrupt version of smart.dll may be in memory. Consider using PView to detect and remove it.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

PView does not exist on my computer

If you know where a virginal version of smart.dll may be residing, I could replace the cynical version which may have decided that I was trying to be too smart for my own good, and is now being arrogantly evasive.

g'morning cats & Fuzzys & wolves...

feline again it is Doreenosis not itus and stop confusing me w/ the "itus" too cuz it's itis not itus

argh me is too sleep today for this kat... hehe

/me *oops*

Doreen, what do you expect from me? where i work all medical words are handled by 5 character alpha-numerical codes. eg "H33.." is some form of asthma

anyway, that is my excuse, and i am sticking to it

werewolf, this is getting ever more interesting.

i had assumed (sorry for swearing) that the smartbutton.dll didnt nead to be registered to work.

how are you finding out your current system PATH?

my autoexec.bat and config.sys are a similar size. i am getting my path by simply typing "path" into a command prompt window.

i *may* know what is going on with your machine's path, but lets sneak up on it.

feline:

winkey>r <--
cmd <--
path <--

the SD path elements seem to be strictly for the benefit of OE
