Problem

Unable to load dialog "Text Editor - Word Processor"

User is getting error message "Unable to load/create dialog item of type 'HTML', id = 41510001 from dialog "Text Editor - Word Processor" when using place text tool in MicroStation V8i / MicroStation XM, OS is WindowXP / Window 7

Solution

The solution was to manually unregister and re-register the triedit.dll
and dhtmled.ocx files:

  1. Open an elevated DOS Command Prompt and insert the following string:

    cd C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Triedit

  2. Enter each of the following commands followed by the "Enter" key, then
    click "Ok" to acknowledge the "operation succeeded" message:

    regsvr32.exe /u dhtmled.ocx
    regsvr32.exe dhtmled.ocx
    regsvr32.exe /u triedit.dll
    regsr32.exe triedit.dll

(Please note that the above solution is valid for Windows XP only)

For Windows 7 ; This may work for MicroStation V8 XM Edition.
Please install the DHTML editing control from Microsoft:
