I downloaded the scenario manager ver3 zip file and unzipped it, ran the setup file and it installed fine, but when I try to run it I get a "runtime error 53, file not found" error. What am I doing wrong?

Its an excellent program but that has happened to me too. I removed it, then reinstalled it, and it ran fine. Why?

Beats me. That is usually how I fix things. I fix them but I don't know how I do it

Try that, SG. It only takes a few minutes. Wild Bill ------------------ In Arduis Fidelis Wild Bill Wilder Coordinator, Scenario Design Matrix Games

I finally managed to get this program working.

first of all it needs visual basic 6 runtimes in your system. Even though the setup claims it'll update some files that didn't work for me. (Win95 osr2 btw, i doubt win98 users will encounter this problem) I then promptly got this 'runtime error #53' and after few tries it looks like if you install the program somewhere else than the default directory it offers, the program will stuck it's thumb into it's a...hrm..mouth and starts to pout.

Thanks for the tips. I had been trying to install it to a custom directory on my D: drive. After just installing it to the default install directory on my C: drive it ran fine. Wonder why they give you the option for a custom destination if its just gonna give you headaches? Thanks again.
