Hi Everyone,

I'm having issues with Hyperpin when trying to view a tables instruction cards ( both in table and on the main menu). First its worth noting I am a cabinet user (Windows 7) with a nano tech plunger and input board, so I don't have access to an "i" key nor do I have an extra button to assign instructions to. So I have to rely on Hyperpin's menu.

When I select 'Instructions' from the on screen menu I get the following error:

Function Name 'Menu'
Error: The COM object may not be a valid Dispatch Object!
First ensure that COM library has be initialized through COM_Init().
0
Will Continue?

If I select 'yes' it will list 2 other functions it cannot find either ( forget them and I'm not by my machine right now) Has anyone ever come across this issue?

Can you post the link to the Adobe Flash version you installed? I only find the version for the browser and I do not think this is the right one...

All fixed it seems I was using the wrong version of autohotkey. Must use the anci 32 version not Unicode.
