If you are trying to edit dtml or zpt objects, you may need to register the .dtml and .pt file extensions with Windows or alternately specify the editor in the ZopeEdit.ini file. Also, look in you temp directory for zopeedit traceback files. If you see one or more, send the most recent one to me and I will look into it for you. hth, -Casey On Friday 23 August 2002 05:35 am, Elena Schulz wrote:

Dear List,

clicking on the new External Editor 0.5 symbols in the ZMI of my local zope on win 98 I just get short download window. That's it. Nothing else ... What am I doing wrong?

In the explorer I configured the filetype in the open-field like so:

"E:\Python22\pythonw.exe" J:\Zope\ZopeExternalEditor\zopeedit.exe "%1" ^ ^ Path to my python 2.2 Installdir of zopeedit-win32-0.5.exe

this is my zope specification: Zope Version (Zope 2.5.1 (binary release, python 2.1, win32-x86), python 2.1.3, win32) Python Version 2.1.3 (#35, Apr 8 2002, 17:47:50) [MSC 32 bit (Intel)] System Platform win32

Thanks for your replies,

Elena
