Open File overriding loaded copybook file structure
Editor for Fixed Width, Csv and Existing Xml files.

I used the Load Cobol Copybook utility to load a VB file including Block Length through . The Load Cobol Copybook file view worked as expected and I loaded the copybook. After I go to view a file using the Open File, the open file overrides the File Structure and opens the file as a VB (rdw included) Binary file instead of the VB including Block Length so the file is off by the first 4 bytes. I had another file with the VB including Block Length working correctly. Any suggestions on what is causing the issue on this file?

I would guess that the file that the RecordEditor is failing on is fairly small < 32kb and the file it worked for was larger (or possibly had more records ???) can you confirm this ???
Posible solutions:
If you can share the
problemfile it might be usefull, if not assuming my guess is correct, I can probably create aproblemfile.Looks like I guessed wrongly, I have not been able to recreate the problem; I will probably need to look at the file if possible.
I think I have worked out what the problem is, I will have a fix in the next couple of days
I have uploaded a new version:
Which hopefully fixes the issue. The new version is available as:
USBversion - you can unzip anywhere and runplease let me know how you get on
