Problem

When clicking on results while in the Noise program, a Run Time Error 5 occurs and shuts down the program.

Solution

During the generation of the results, a page is generated that is only shown when you choose to print. This contains ancillary information about your project that you don't need to see "in-program", but is created at the same time as the information you do see.. One field of this report displays the file name of the project. If this name is over 35 characters long (+ ".nse") then the name will not fit in the space available and the program will generate the error.

To resolve this, simply use file names that are shorter than 35 characters.

Note that this error is not generated with long path names,
it is solely considering the file name length.
