    Same message when I click "Customize": "There is no valid sim present."

    Uninstalled CVCX and CVData, and reinstalled. Same issue. Looked at folder permissions and flipped a few switches to more permissive settings, but the problem remains.

    The included simulations work fine, but it has some problem displaying self-run simulations. CVCX does display results and ramps for CVData simulations, however, so I can run anything in CVData and call CVCX from there, but I can't do direct comparisons within CVCX.

    EDIT: The versions of CVData and CVCX are both V5. One thing Windows 8 does is have [email protected] as logins, an option which I accepted. I wonder if that figures here.

    This is the msg that you get if you do not have Decks and Rules set to one of the sims in the sim file.

    We have a winner: that was the problem.

    Thank you.

    You'll have to ask Apple. Seriously, why ask 10,000 software companies when they will support Apple instead of one company when they'll support the Windows API?

    Android then?
    "One of these days in your travels, you are going to come across a guy with a nice brand new deck of cards, and this guy is going to offer to bet you that he can make the Jack of Spades jump out of the deck and squirt cider in your ear. But, son, do not take this bet, for if you do, as sure as you are standing there, you are going to end up with an ear full of cider."
