Report Builder errors after 9.1A install

Hey Everyone,

Last Friday:

- Uninstalled Progress 9.0B44.
- Installed 9.1A & patch 9.1A27 on our NT4 w/sp6 server.
- Uninstalled the 9.0B client software from client Win2K workstations.
- Installed 9.1A Client Networking on workstations from the mapped network drive.

Problem:

ALL programs that use the Report Builder interface procedures _prore or _printrb
caused Report Builder to stop with error:
Unable to open convmap file 'D:\EPICOR\PROGRESS\convmap.cp'

I get the same result trying to launch Report Builder directly from the icon
which the client setup created.

I tried adding the '-basekey' parameter to the icon but RB now gives an error
stating that it's an invalid startup parameter..HOWEVER, if I use the '-ininame'
parameter RB will start...but only from it's icon.

I called Progress and they suggested uninstalling and reinstalling everything.
I did but I still get the same problem.

It appears that when RB starts up it looks for the convmap file using the install
path on the server instead of the clients mapped path. I found a couple of KB's
on the Progress website which suggested adding additional registry keys but they
did not work.

Any suggestions???

Thanks,

John
