When I try to run the program it does nothing. I see it in task manager then it quickly disappears. I am running Windows XP.

What Windows version you're using ? If XP, what service pack ?

You have to try it under Service Pack 2.
There are some graphics library changes in SP2 so skin engine may not work.
I decided to remove skins support in next version.

I have been using the banks base for some time, and suddenly yesterday the program stopped running. I updated everything recently, so that lends some creedence to the idea that the problem is SP2 or something to that effect. I click on it, and it does nothing. Frustrating. If you are planning an update, please let us know. I love your program.

It's can't be suddenly. May be you have installed something after that program stopped functioning. Try to remember, may be there is some software which prevents Banks Base from run.

Basically, I ran autopatcher XP, and updated all my software a week ago, and ran Hitman Pro, which updated the WMF bug in Windows. I haven't installed any other programs before or since it stopped working. It's a shame, I love this program, and there is none other like it.

I will try to figure this out. I still think it's a problem with skin engine.
Going to remove them. I think it's not actual for this program ;)

This is really very strange. It should work under XP SP2 without any problems.
Even if the program already running it should run (not as second copy but will bring up the running one)
May be some kind of antivirus prevents from running ?
There are some people with some free antivirus which shows some kind of trojan in my program :shock: (you can read in the next topic)
