Hi Jack, Re: THREED.VBX file.................

I believe it's another Visual Basic file and it's usually in a "hidden" folder, I believe. It should be placed in your C:\Windows\System folder, I believe.

Hope this helps. We have to get you motivated again! This has been a very much more interesting market for AIMing than the previous three years. Not as much straight ramping upward or, as in the 2000 thru 2002 period, straight ramping downward!!

Best regards, Tom

File not found: 'THREED.VBX' It was about a year ago since I last posted on here. I guess I m in the running for the AIM Hermit Award.

Hi, Jack,

Welcome back and sorry to hear your re-entry seems to be a rough one!

With the VBRUN300.DLL error and now this one, what it's telling you are that parts of the Microsoft Visual Basic environment (or other support system) are either missing or you've got an errant version from what the program is expecting to see.

Microsoft's got more details on this one here:

Here's a place that purports to offer a replacement if you can't find it on your system or original disk.

http://www.simracingworld.com/files/4/?File=408&Download=1

NOTE If you download their recommended file - save it to disk first and then spyware/virus check the heck out of it before actually using it. I normally only download from places like download.com run by c|net, but they don't have a replacement for this file as it's probably not used much anymore except by older software. Even a more archival site like simtel.net comes up blank. So, downloader emptor, this may work, if all else fails.


Keep us posted.

Best,

AIMster

Hiya Jack!

It was about a year ago since I last posted on here. I guess I am in the running for the AIM Hermit Award.

If it were me, I'd prefer a more lofty title like:

Millennium AIM Fellow Emeritus (Canadian Lodge)

And, given your recent troubles, and as long as we're doing a little 'Latin'...

Hi Jack,
welcome back. Jump back in this board. Thanks for the help on my Newport last year. Long story short, Tom had me change some goofy number in some goofy file and bingo my Newport works again. Ken
