= SYMPTOMS =

You may receive the following error message while attempting to start the Automap Streets program

STREET.WMB : ERROR CANNOT OPEN FILE :.DAT

where is the letter of your hard drive.

= RESOLUTION =

Early versions of Automap Streets require the MS-DOS SHARE.EXE utility, or the VSHARE.386 utility that is available with Microsoft Windows 3.11 or Microsoft Windows for Workgroups 3.11. Create the following entry in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file:

C:.EXE /l:500 /f:5100

NOTE: If SHARE.EXE or VSHARE.386 is not installed and Automap Streets is installed to work with either Automap Road Atlas or Automap Pro, the following error appears when you choose Change Map from the File menu and select a wide area map:

USA.WMB: Error could not open file. :.DAT

-or-

:.DAT

Once SHARE.EXE or VSHARE.386 is installed, this error disappears and the program functions properly.

= MORE INFORMATION =

Early versions of the Automap Streets program require either the SHARE.EXE or VSHARE.386 utilities in order to operate. This was corrected in later builds of the program by updating the file RGSTD.DLL so that it no longer requires file sharing or locking.
