I have come in this morning to an XP workstation that fails to open. I had upgraded to v6.17 earlier in the week, but it was running properly yesterday. The Exception message implies that Recorder can't access the drive with the object sheet file, in this case on a mapped network drive. The network drive is there (I have disconnected and re-connected trying different users), but this does not help. I fear that this is a PC issue, not a Recorder one and that this is a merely a symptom, but thought I'd post here in case anyone has an thoughts.
