Hey there Pete (and everyone)
I was shocked to see the last time I logged in simFlight was Nov 2007, and I don't think I have ever posted before.
I'm stuck now. My WideFS desktop which I have been using solidly for three years is slowly dying. I have spent the past week migrating everything to my laptop. I'm done for the most part. However, when I create a plan with Flitemap and try to print it, my .apl and .pln files aren't being created. I don't really need the .apl because I don't use RC, but I need the .pln to load it into FS as well as Activesky.
On my dying desktop my Flitemap FliteStar version was 9.x (can't remember) on WinXP. And everything worked fine for quite a long while. With my new setup I can confirm 100% that my directories are correct in the FstarRC.ini file, and also that the "Expanded Log" is checked on the Nav Log page.

Do you think it's a problem with the new Flitemap version, or Windows 7, or both? Or neither? And something else is wrong?
Thanks for any help or suggestions.
