!!!  Run-Time Error 200 Has Been Fixed  !!!

minimum height spacer Around 1998, I had been getting an increased number of reports that the Run Time Error 200 message continues to appear even after running the "install.bat" program. After finally locating a computer that duplicated the problem, I found a remedy. A search on the Internet turned up a patch to the CRT unit for Borland Pascal that fixes the problem.  Let's hope the GHz processors on the horizon don't create a whole new host of problems for DOS relics.

A number of people have contacted me regarding problems getting RF Workbench to run (not including the RTE 200 problem). To my knowledge, the problem has always been resolved by running the "install.bat" program that comes zipped up with RF Workbench. Here is a listing of the file. Subdirectories will be created by the batch file that are essential for RF Workbench to execute. If the mixer files (*.mf3) ended up in the root directory, move them to the .\mixers subdirectory.

 

In order to run, RF Workbench requires that the following directory structure be created:

    .\rfwb40

    .\rfwb40\data

    .\rfwb40\mixers

    .\rfwb40\plans

    .\rfwb40\systems

Following is the content of the "install.bat" file:
