I'm going to assume those are VB files. Download this (http://download.microsoft.com/download/vb60pro/Redist/sp5/WIN98Me/EN-US/vbrun60sp5.exe) to remedy the situtation.

That is weird. I just checked my DoomCad 6.1 folder and there's supposed to be a knife.vbx file in the doomcad dir. Did you check to see if you have the file? If it's not there try downloading DoomCad from my 'Stuph' page on my Site 'The Megawad'...... link in sig. http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/wink.gif

What OS are you using? The DooMCAD editors 5.1 and 6.1 will run fine on Win95 and Win98.

Windeu 5.99b 16bit version. It's weird that 32bit version isn't working in XP but 16bit works.

Both Windeu version run in XP (just verified again) -- must be something wrong with your system.

There is one other Windows editor he can try and that's DeePsea www.sbsoftware.com (http://www.sbsoftware.com)

Like WA also shareware, but unlike WA it's been updated to support ALL the new ports. Be sure to click on the top Menu, select Help and run the interactive tutorial to get a quick rundown of how to draw levels. Prefabs are also available.
