FindWords Tool doesn't work :(

[Crogon]

It seems to me that this would be a terribly useful tool, but I can't seem to get it to work. I applied the fix mentioned here:

http://www.textpad.info/forum/viewtopic ... =findwords

to the .cfg file, but that didn't help. Actually I 'fixed' it as so:

Code: Select all

exec = exec "C:/Program Files/TextPad 4/Textpad.exe" "%FileName%(%Line%,%Char%)"

I think my problem is in the instructions, as no matter what I try to do, it doesn't work. I don't quite understand this bit:

Code: Select all

          - Commands        = <the path of wish>
          - Parameters      = <the path of this file> $File $Sel
          - Initial folder  = $FileDir

The path of wish? What the..? I assume that is the path to DDEOPN32.EXE. Could someone provide me with an example of the settings for this tool? Also, perhaps an example of a working .cfg file?

..or is this tool just plain broken? Thanks for your help guys!

Edit:

It occurs to me that it might be helpful to tell you the error that I'm getting:

Code: Select all

Cannot find key '"C:\Program\shell\open\ddeexec\application' in registration database (error 2).

I don't know WHY it's doing this. It doesn't seem to make any difference if I put the file links in quotes. What's even stranger is if I make all the links C:\progra~1\textpa~1.... I get no error at all, absolutely NOTHING happens when I click the FindWords tool on the menu.

Thanks again for any help!
