Ah, well that is the reason. The 'DatePresenter.Picker view' is a common
control that is available on Windows 2000, but it will only work if the
library has been initialised correctly. The Dolphin X6 IDE is not supported
on Windows 2000 (as described at
http://www.object-arts.com/content/navigation/products/systemRequirements.html),
and includes a common control package which is not compatible with Windows
2000 (namely the 'Dolphin SysLink Control' package). The incompatible
package causes the common control library initialisation to fail.


Note this would not be a problem in a deployed app. (at least if you avoided
using the unsupported SysLink control).

You could fix this problem by uninstalling the 'Dolphin SysLink Control'
package, although you'll have to remove a few methods in the development
system first (see the package's dependents in the package browser). Removal
of those methods will not impair the development system. However there may
be other issues running the IDE on Win2k, some may not be reasonably
fixable.

We won't be providing a patch for this issue, and won't actively work on
issues reported in the IDE against win2k . We will actively support
application issues on Win2k, as long as it does not involve the use of
components which use XP/2k3 specific features.
