Re: Floorplan - crashes every time with runtime error 9

["garygfx" <garygfx@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks James. Yes, word must have spread of my posts on the Homeseer
board. I was scared to come to this group but I've been assured
you're unarmed and friendly people! ;-)

I appreciate the reply and the heads up of a new release. Looking
forward to it, especially the auto scripts.

I assume your app includes a built-in web server? If so, how secure
is it to the usual Internet hacks/attacks? Is it possible to run it
from IIS instead? No worries if that's not possible, I'll just keep
the port closed on my firewall.

Many thanks,
Gary.
