Popup Error

Post by contemplativeTarot »

I don't recall when this started happening, perhaps a few months ago... But I keep getting a popup when I use one of the spreads that I've created. It says:

"This file was created using a more recent version of the program. The program might not be able to open it".

All of the spreads work just fine, but I have to click "OK" to clear this popup every time I use one.

Any ideas?

If you can send the spread's xml file to administration "at" orphalese.net I will be happy to take a look. What version of the program are you using?

I'm comfortable with xml and was able to troubleshoot and fix this error myself.
I am running Orphalese Version 8.11.

At the bottom of one of my spread files, I found:

<tblVersion>
<Version>8.9</Version>
</tblVersion>

After changing the value 8.9 to 8.11, the pop up went away. It appears that the application doesn't seem to recognize that 11 is actually greater than 9... It is possible that the two digit version number is throwing things off and that the app sees 8.11 as 8.1.

You were spot on!

I had forgotten that version check was in there, I think I added it after version 5 or 6 when there was a big change in the way spread info was stored. I think by now there are not very many of those very old spread files around, so in the next version I will just leave out the warning.
