ppt comparison - WSH permission denied

[willglynn]

HI All,

first off, great program it has saved me hrs of work

now. heres the thing. (hope i have this in the right forum)

spec:
beyond compare 3 v3.2.4 (build 13298)
+ ppt comparison script from website
windows 7 professional
office 2007

Problem:
When comparing 2 ppt files together, beyond compare apprears to get stuck. (progress bar shows its working)

but i've left if for at least 10/20min b4 to see if it was just slow.

so i click on the reload files button and the error shown in the jpg appears.

i've checked the file permissions and i have full control and admin access on the pc.

thing is, it worked for me before the ppt to ppt comparison. but just seems to have stopped now.


so. any suggestions/solutions are welcome.

cheers
Will

Hello,

Do you have any trouble with the MS Excel conversion process opening .xls or .xlsx files? It uses a similar process.

Hi Aron,
thanks for the reply.

After going through it again. i went and downloaded the addon for comparing the ppt's.
turn's out i hadn't the most up to date version of that!
well downloaded the new one and it is working perfect again.

the prob was driving me nuts, never noticed there was an update.

well prob solved.

thanks again
Will
