"Not Enough Memory to Load Tutorial" with Corrupt VB.LES File

ID Number: Q78000

WINDOWS

Summary:

If you try to run the Visual Basic tutorial when it is not actually

installed or the file VB.LES has become corrupted, a message box will

state "Not Enough Memory To Load Tutorial." A workaround is described

further below.

This information applies to Microsoft Visual Basic version 1.0 for

Microsoft Windows.

More Information:

The subdirectory \VB\VB.CBT\ contains files for the Visual Basic

tutorial. If the file VB.LES has been modified or replaced by another

file, the tutorial cannot be run and two erroneous dialog boxes will

open.

The first dialog box has the title "Visual Basic Tutorial" and

displays the message "Out of memory". Choosing the OK button will

clear this box and another one will open.

The second dialog box is titled "Microsoft Visual Basic," which

displays the message "Not enough memory to load tutorial." Choose the

OK button to clear this box.

The messages displayed in these dialog boxes are incorrect and should

be ignored. To correct this problem, reinstall Visual Basic so that

VB.LES will be replaced by the correct file.

Note: To properly reinstall Visual Basic, you must first delete all

files from the previous installation. Remember to save all of your

program files (*.FRM, *.MAK, and so on) before deleting the previous

installation.
