access violation in "create pdf" in "fill sheet" window

Post by brentwood » Sun Sep 28, 2008 1:25 pm

The "create pdf" in "fill sheet" window to export referral slips as pdf files may cause access violation/exception for Vista users. The temp pdf files are created in the fodler the program is running, which is "C:\Program Files\Open Dental". By default, that folder is not modifiable for Vista users. Hence, access violation. Could you create the temp pdf files in the personal temp folders? Also I found that you don't clean up the temp files. So I think personal temp folder is better for that. Thanks.

Hmm. Yes, that's a bug. It was supposed to be creating those files in the temp folder, so we weren't supposed to have to clean them up. Thanks.
