OK, I removed IDL from the problem machine, deleted the IDL 7
directory, then re-installed from the IDL 7.0 DVD. Before
doing anything else (no upgrading, etc.) I added the program
I have been using to create the error to the default project
and simply ran the program, passing in bad data so as to
cause the trapped error. It DOES NOT SWITCH PERSPECTIVES!
I am *really* confused now. The only difference I can think
of is that I installed the IDL 7 that is working from a
software download from the ITTVIS site, whereas this install
is from the DVD.
Is anyone else having this kind of problem on Windows XP?
Good machine:
DELL 8300, running XP Pro, SP2, with all updates.
Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz, 2.99GHz, 3.25 GM of RAM
Bad machine:
DELL D630, running XP Pro, SP2, with all updates.
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T7700 @ 2.40GHz
2.39GHz, 3.50GB RAM Physical Address Extension
Cheers,
David
