[WriteLog] Error opening Writelog in Win 7

[Anthony (N2KI)]

Ron,


What "names" is the software referring to?  Could it be in the "sounds"
section of the control panel (with regard to the sound card itself).  Maybe
if the sound theme is changed will make a difference?  Worth a try.  The
error is pointing to "names for sound -Vista Style".  Change it to something
else for a test.

Just tried that and, unfortunately, I still get the error message upon 
opening Writelog in the XP Compatibility mode.   Thanks for the suggestion.
