Question and Answer Database FAQ1240C.txt keyboard typing problem red box while baskspacing Category :IDE Platform :Win95/NT Product : BC++5.x Question: In bc5.0X I get a red box while I backspace. And all my other keys are messed up. Answer: 1> check the settings in: Options | Enviroment | Scripting | and verify the script path 2> Close the IDE and go to a dos box 3> go to the bc5/bin dir; delete *.bcw, *.dsw,*.dsk, *.mrt, *.mbt, bcwdef.*, *.spx Don't forget the *.spx in the bin, this is the main suspect 4> go to the bc5/script dir; delete *.spx 5> open the IDE and verify that it works If this fails rename the bc5/script dir to script_old copy the script directory, from the cd rom, turn off the read only attributes on all the files in the script directory, and then repeat steps 1-5. (This problem is also reportedly caused by having directory names of the style "something.something" in your script path.) 7/2/98 10:32:32 AM
