Thats exactly like the other link posted here. It’s the zip archive not in installer or a zip that contains the C Compiler + MFC DLL runtime.
And new Windows wont allow side loading of the DLLs anymore if you just put them just in the folder.

Too much security kills it all ... you don’t even get a normal error message anymore.

Thanks everyone. Good news is that my IT department worked hard to try to get it to work, turns out deleting registry entries for NetManage does the trick.

I’ll look at a few of the other options (I am limited to Windows) becasue some day I probably will have to switch. Dynalist is also still a potential candidate as well, I did a test workflow and I think it could work ok. But for now, I still carry on with Ecco.

I’ll probably check this one out (need to get permission to install, although this has a run from thumb drive looks like you need to do a full install first and then export to a thumb drive install). If I can do collapsible headings within table cells then I may have struck gold-just hoping, no idea if that will work).
