QUESTION How do I get past the fatal error 103 or 203 that I get from the Explore version of VisualAge or IBM Smalltalk? ANSWER The Explorer CD has been setup to allow only one installation of the VisualAge and IBM Smalltalk products on each PC. If you install the Explorer version more than once, VisualAge or IBM Smalltalk will give you the 103 or 203 error message when you try to use VA or IBM ST. To work around this problem, we have a program that will synchronize the install dates. To get the program you can request EXPLROS2 PACKAGE from VISUALAG at CARVM3 (or EXPLRWIN for Windows). PF11 will cause the request to pop up here and allow to send it right now. Or access the VisualAge library on CompuServe: Enter 'Go Visual' Select Library Select Browse Select VisualAge Then, select the VisualAge Evaluation CD Error 203 Correction and download to your PC. Each package contains four exe files: VASU - for VisualAge Single User (or Standard) VATEAM - for VisualAge Team STSU - for IBM Smalltalk Single User (or Standard) STTEAM - for IBM Smalltalk Team Please copy the appropriate exe to the same subdirectory as the image and then run it. This will eliminate the 103 or 203 message.
