[slinkelist] Re: PartyGUI error 3343 - unrecognized database format

[keith alexander]

Are you using the latest version? This error was
related to the new database format for CDJ.  I have
converted PartyGUI to ADO, and now it works great. 
Get it at www.geocities.com/nurse_alexander.  BTW I
maded some really cool changes this weekend, fixed the
behavior of the play button, addded a pause button,
and added a tabbed control interface basically in the
INI file you tell it how many tabs, and size and
position of 3 control types (button, memory state
button, or slider) map them to macro commands, and
viola gui automation for anything (I am using it to
control reciever/amp and lights)  Now for the bad
news, I was futzing around with my computer in the
wall, and blew the mother board, in an attempt to test
it I blew my processor from my main system (dork) 
Test and upload of the changes will have to occur
after I figure out how to afford a new processor.
Anybody got a spare <grin>...
