textbox.curline=0 gives runtime error -2147418113

opens, it sets Curline=0 in the text box. This worked without problem for
some years. Last November it began to give the error mentioned, on just one of
my machines. The failing machine was running Vista Home Premium SP1, Office
2007 SP1 with all MS Update maintenance applied automatically.
I reported the error via the Managed Newsgroups, and in December was
informed that it was caused by a particular version of FM20.dll which had
been installed via hotfix 950278. I removed the fix, and the problem went
away.
Yesterday I revisited the relevant code, and found the problem has returned.
This is presumably due to maintenance automatically appllied via Windows
Update sometime since December. I suspect the most likely candidate is the
SP2 update toOffice 2007. For your info, my present FM20.dll level is
12.0.6415.1000.

indeed the version from Office 2007 SP2.
If you still have access to the managed newsgroups, report it again. I'll put it
in through MSDN Connect.

I can also see the problem. I will report this internally. Hopefully, this
break will be fixed in the next version of FM20.dll.
Currently, as a temporary solution, we need to use back to the
12.0.6211.1000 version FM20.dll. Please perform the following steps in your
side,
1 Right click the command prompt and click Run As Administrator.
2 Navigate to C:\Windows\System32 (It should be the default path)
2 Type "regsvr32 /u FM20.dll" and press Enter.
3 In the windows explorer, delete the 12.0.6415.1000 FM20.dll from
C:\Windows\System32
4 Copy the 12.0.6211.1000 FM20.dll into C:\Windows\System32
5 In the command window, type "regsvr32 FM20.dll" and press Enter.
After performing the above steps, I resolve the issue in my side. Please
let me know if this fixes the issue for you. For your convenience, I upload
a 12.0.6211.1000 version FM20.dll in my SkyDrive which you can download.
After you download it, you need unblock it from the property page.

As this does not cause me any grief in my own environment I will not take
the time to regress FM20.dll. However, it does have the potential to affect
prospective customers, who might encounter this error when evaluating my
product. I hope that Microsoft will appreciate that this bug has the
potential adversely to affect their partners' sales, and will ensure that it
is fixed as soon as possible. It is now 6 months since I first reported the
bug on MSDN, and I would have hoped that the development team would have
fixed it by now.
Fortunately, the bug only affects my prospective customers, not my current
ones. Sadly that is not the case for everyone, as the following post shows:
http://www.eggheadcafe.com/conversation.aspx?messageid=34415284&threadid=33410274.
Please let me know how Microsoft will proceed with this - a little more
detail than 'hopefully it will be fixed in the next version. . .' would be
appreciated.

help for the community members who are facing the same issue.

Anyone know if there is any timeframe for the new FM20.DLL due in Office 2007 SP3 to be released for Office 2003 / Office XP updates?
In the mean time, the same work around solution of manually overwritting FM20.DLL with an older version works.
Kind regards

That hotfix should be for other issues which updates the FM20.dll. As I
mentioned in previous reply. The Word PG has already known this issue and
they will fix it in the Word 2007 SP3 as scheduled. :-) Thanks for your
patience and have a nice day, Sir!
