    I have recently developed a problem with my THINK C 4.0.  Last time I
used it (April - before summer break) everything was working fine an dandy.
Now, something has gone horribly wrong.  I would like to solve this problem
because it will allow me to work on home and not walk onto campus all the time.

    When I launch THINK C, and the dialog asking for a project comes up, one
of three things will happen.  If I hit "cancel", the program will be fine -
although I can't do anything with out a project open.  If I create a new
project, I will get the dialog asking for a name - after I enter the name and
hit "ok" the program quits and the system brings up a dialog telling me that
an error of type one has occurred.  If I try to open one of my old projects,
the program freezes up - sort of.  I can still move the cursor (still as an
arrow) to my hearts content, but cannot do anything.  None of the menus (still
those of THINK C) will respond and neither will anything on the desktop -
forcing me to manually restart.

    If someone can up with any suggestions, I would appreciate them.

    If someone has a current phone number for Symantic's TechServ, I
would appreciate that also.  The number in my manual has been dissconnected.

    Thank you much.
