I've just installed RCv4 with no problems, but when I tried to run for the first time I get the following message when I try to load an existing flight plan from FS2004: Run time error '713': Class not registered. You need the following file to be installed on your machine. MSSTD FMT.DLL What have I missed or did the program not install correctly? Any help to get me up and running (flying) would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Al Hahn

Hi Al,Check out the following threadhttp://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=sho...ing_type=searchAll the best,John

John,thanks for responding. I followed the thread you sent and did a search for the MSSTDFMT.DLL in my system 32 folder and the search came up with nothing to report. So what is next? I tried another flight plan making sure to have at least one waypoint between the departure and destination and I still get the same error message on loading a flight plan. Any suggestions would sure be helpful. Keep in mind I'm not a computer whiz and would prefer not to dabble in the system config files if at all possible. I was hoping for a fairly straight forward install with no "tweaking" involved. Al Hahn
