3.18 installation fun

edited October 2005 in FastReport 3.0
When I try to install FR 3.18 I get the following error as soon as I've selected all my components to install etc and the actual file copying part should start:

Component ID = {268B95A8-E784-4538-8A62-E3B26A493A32} not found

in a little error dialog. Then the setup rolls back. I gues its back to 3.15 for me.

After installing 3.15 I checked the Install log and found a bunch of entries like:
[{268B95A8-E784-4538-8A62-E3B26A493A22}.CopyFiles]
C:\WINDOWS\system32\frxDB7.bpl=
C:\WINDOWS\system32\fsDB7.bpl=

so I assume it has something to do with the installation file. Any way around this?

    Try complete uninstall (including manual remove program files\Fast Repors, compiled packages (in your projects path and in windows\system32), rewonload file and do clean install...

    Did whack all my files before attempting to install. I'm not going to bother downloading this again as I have just been throught the pain of modifying 3.15 to fix a bug in the xml export and now it does all I need it to.

    Same here with latest 3.18.11, try using "stable" version...

    I'm freezing on 3.17, because I have many troubles with 3.18+ ;)

    Yeah, maybe when we get a better rtf exporter I'll update again. But apparently the visible grid lines are there by design. *sigh*

    Hello FastReport Experts,

    i'm really NEW at FastReports and, excuse me, i have to start with an Istallation question :
    I use Delphi2005 and have just downloaded the fr3d9.exe with date 2005-11-07 (!).
    While installing i get the errormsg

    "Component ID="{3FD1D046-08B5-4BB1-A6D3-BC1C25C0C408B}" not found." Then the installation rolls back and terminates.

    It seems the same problem as within the 1st post of this topic.
    Bevore installing the fr3d9.exe i installed the fr3doc.exe - Maybe that's the problem ? But deinstalling these docs and deleting ALL fr - files did'nt solve - the error persists. I hav'nt had any other fr data at this machine before this.

    Can anyone help me ?
    Thank's a lot

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor.
