Ruud,
SudoCue just crashed on me. And the crash can be repeated. Here is what I did:
I started with an empty grid. I entered some numbers. Then I clicked Tools->Options and there was the crash.
My system: Windows 98 SE

Hi Peter,
I cannot replicate the error on my XP machine, so I have a couple of questions:
1. What version of SudoCue are you using?
2. When it crashes, does it give a specific error message?
Maybe this will help me fix the problem.
Thanks for the report,
Ruud

1. I use the latest version, 1.5.1.1
2. I get the "Blue Screen Of Death", no other informations
I just tried to replicate the crash. Here is what I did:
1. Start SudoCue -> empty grid appears
2. Select Tools->Options -> everything is fine
3. Enter some numbers in the grid
4. Select Tools->Options -> crash
I'll try it now with a newly started computer, without other running programs.
I'll be back! (Arnold Schwarzenegger)

I just tried it with my Windows 98SE computer, running SudoCue 1.5.1.2.
I had no problems.
Regards,
George

I'm back. And I'm sorry, but I still get the Blue Screen Of Death when I perform the actions described above, even with a rebooted computer.
If you can't replicate the crash on your XP then it might be blamed on Windows 98 SE. Well, sh** happens when you use an outdated system, but memory and speed prevent me from running XP on this old computer. But as long as my computer doesn't depart to the electronical heaven on its own I will grant it the right to surf with all the other computers...
Thanks,
Peter

OK, so 1.5.1.1 was not the lastest version. I just downloaded 1.5.1.2
Here is what happened next:
I tried to install the new version. The program told me that there is already a SudoCue installed and that I should deinstall the old version. Funny, I thought, I was under the impression that it overrides the old version like it did before. And when I looked at the installed software I found TWO SudoCues!
But after removing the old versions I could replicate the crash with the new version. Sorry.
Greetings,
Peter

Ruud,
sorry to bring this up again, but SudoCue 2.0 also winked an error message at me.
Here is what happened:
- Entered numbers in an empty grid and saved it
Selected File -> Play, got the message that it couldn't be solved with my current solver settings, selected cancel
Selected Tools -> Options, got an error message
Here is the error message and the details (sorry, parts are in german, I'll translate them):
Code: Select all
Error message:
(Translated) An unhandeled exception occured.
An overflow or underflow occured in an arithmetic operation.

I hope it helps this time. Oh, I removed the filenames of the assemblies, if you need them I still got them.
Thanks in advance.
Peter
EDIT: I reloaded the saved sudoku. Got the message that it couldn't be solved with the current solver settings, selected OK. Now I tried Tools -> Options again and it worked.

This is a strange error, Peter.
There is a problem when the "Select Font" dialog is initialized. It was left in the code, but since you no longer can change the font manually, it is not used anymore. I now removed it from the code. I hope that this will once and for all solve your "options" problems. Your earlier error may have been related to this.
Thanks for reporting it. I actually only needed the error message and the calling stack to locate the problem.
Got to repair a few more bugs, but I expect to release an update later today.
