seeing that 1246 is now available i have just downloaded and tried to install this. i am immediately getting an information box asking me to close all instances of "Microsoft Visual C++"
VS .NET 2003 isn't running, and i haven't loaded it since booting up my machine this morning, it looks like i am back on UNIX today.
several things are running, including MS Excel 2000 (sp3). if i close Excel and re-run the installer it is happy. i normally (always?) have to close Excel, but i have always had VS .NET 2003 open and have then closed it, so i presumed Excel was somehow making something linger in memory. it seems Excel is the issue in isolation. |

As Uniwares pointed out it is the VBA environment having open a "Microsoft Visual Basic ..." window which is hidden until you ask for the VBA editor.
A more correct approach would be to check if va_x.dll is loaded by some process, e.g. with PSAPI functions EnumProcesses and EnumProcessModules. Then you could list all processes which have loaded va_x.dll in your Ignore-Retry-Cancel-dialog.
But this is definitely low priority to me - intellisense and code browsing is what I use VAX for, not install/uninstall 
Bye,

| i agree. my main reason for posting was so that others would know this was happening, and what to do to fix it. it is easy to work around, which is always nice |
