From Jim Trietsch:
Just a reminder The CTC Pod will have Pancakes Bacon and Sausage Breakfast Wed Morning Nov 3rd. ALL Donations will go towards the Scholarship Fund. Starting at about 8:30 until we run out or no one is left. Come on by and say Hello, or just eat and say nothing.
From Jim Stateczny:
I just spoke to the man that wrote the tally program and told him of the problem. He works for Microsoft, pretty high up, and while in Denmark he had some of his coworkers examine the problem. Like us, they could find nothing wrong. After visiting for a while we came up with the following solution and explanation:
(1) The tally program requires the use of .Net Framework.
(2) Windows 7 does not come with all of the parts of the .Net Framework, especially if the home version is being used.
(3) The first step is to do Windows Update and download all of the available updates. This may or may not fix the problem.
(4) If the problem persists, download the current version of .Net Framework. It would probably be a good idea to down load the frame work and do a complete install.
(5) The main thing is to get the Windows 7 operating system current.
