I get this error pop-up quite often and just recently...it reads:
"Run-time error '91'.
Object variable or With block variable not set"
It says "IPU" along the top of the pop-up window.

Any ideas on how to correct this?

TIA DJM

May I be horribly pedantic about DOS and scanreg/restore (etc) :-

"scanreg" is the program and "/restore" is known as a switch (it qualifies the action of the program).

Switches should always be added with a space before them, so it should be scanreg /restore. Similarly in DOS you would write copy /y rather than copy/y

It's a good habit to get into if you use DOS but I think both scanreg /restore and scanreg /fix happen to be ones that work without the space - but some don't.

Just clarifying.

Derek
