Why do I get an error message that says something like: ERROR Unknown object “AVDLog.xxx” when I try to load XTools?
You most likely got this message because you are attempting to use the 10/1/99 version (or later) of XTools with ArcView 3.0a or older. Starting with the 10/1/99 version, XTools uses a dialog created with ESRI’s Dialog Designer Extension. The Dialog Designer Extension comes with ArcView 3.1 and later versions. The Dialog Designer Extension adds a new AVDLog object to ArcView. The error message is ArcView 3.0a complaining that it doesn’t know what this AVDLog object is. While I have your attention, and before I tell you how to fix this problem, I would like to make a pitch for upgrading from ArcView 3.0a if possible. The reason for this is that ESRI has been progressively fixing bugs in the Avenue programming language that XTools is built on. ArcView 3.0a was bad enough that I strongly recommend upgrading if you want to use XTools for any significant amount of complex overlay analysis. To see what I mean about bugs, check out the following site: AvenBugs.htm. Unfortunately for Macintosh
