warning!! VEG file corrupt?

joelvid wrote on 9/28/2004, 6:05 AM

Can anyone help regarding the following. I'm having a problem opening a VEG file. I used an editor to open the file, but can't find the duplicated name folder. Where should I look in this "code", and what will it say? Thanks!

Work Around :
Open your VEG file with a hex editor and search for the duplicated name folder.
Change juste a letter in this name and save.
Normally you can now open the VEG file (work for me).

You need a unicode capable hex editor, like this one: http://www.handshake.de/user/chmaas/delphi/download/xvi32.zip

Install it, (it's small and quick), then open your Veg in the editor.

Go to Search-> Find. Click the button for Text String. Check the box for 'as Unicode Latin'. Then type your folder name in the search box and hit OK. If you have any events which have the same name as your folder, then you may find those first; it looks like the folders are stored towards the bottom of the file.

When it finds your folder, you'll see the characters in the right pane separated by spaces. Just replace one of those characters and then save the file.

Make a backup of your Veg first.
