Thanks Dale, I deleted the values in the registry for the windows, and left
them blank, then it fired up no problem!...
Thanks <g>

AS I am catching up today (about 800 messages behind) it was enjoyable
reading everyone's guess at this problem. However, no one was correct.
:(

Bummers, I though most people he took better notes. This problem showed
up about five days ago, and was corrected in 2.0.84 and higher. Its
actually
a simple one.

For some reason, every once in a while, the registry entries for your
window
positions are saved as high negative numbers. This is the overflow
error
you see. Check the values under the key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\IEA\Emerald\Windows

And see which ones huge, or else just grab 2.0.48 and be done with it.
