.txt file eror
 
I want to change the eqhoste.twt file. but ther is a problem with it.

When I open it and cange the login server name and I want to save it it says: 'Can't create the .txt file, check if the pad and the file name are correctley written'.

Then I click on OK

Then it opens 'Save As'
I save it as 'eqhost' and as a .txt file and click on Save

It says, 'the file already exists, do you want to oversave it?', I click Yes.


And then it says again 'Can't create the file, ...'



I tried ervrything, help me

Sounds like the file is still in use..

In use
 
Wat do you mean, in use?

In Use would mean another program or service was using the file your trying to overwrite

I remeber running into this problem on my Vista laptop. My workaround for a while was:
1) Save the txt to a different location (desktop)
2) Delete the eqhost.txt out of my Everquest directory
3) Move the new txt into my Everquest directory (from desktop to c:\program files\Sony\Everquest\)

Have not played on my Vista laptop in a while so I am not sure if it still has this problem.

It could also be set to Read-Only, by right clicking the txt and clicking "Properties" you should see some chekc boxes on the bottom of the window that pops up, if Read-Only is checked, you cant make any changes to the file. Uncheck it and click ok. :)
