Before today, I'd used the word processor editor plenty of times. I don't know what happened to break it. This morning I received this error message and then found the article linked above.
I initially tried option 3, but when I tried to install the downloaded file, it canceled the installation saying it was already installed. I tried option 2, but didn't find the file that it referred to and anyway it probably would have said the same thing.
My solution in Windows 10 was to go to add and remove programs, find DHTML, click to modify the installation, then repair the installation. I first did this process while Microstation was open; I wasn't surprised when it didn't work while I was still in the same session, so I closed Microstation. Because I didn't want to waste too much time, I decided to run the repair once more while Microstation was closed. When I started Microstation again it was fine.
just curious what version of MicroStation you are using.

Oh yeah, that would have been worth mentioning. SS10 8.11.09.916, and in case it matters, with Geopak.
Good to hear of your experiences with updating the DHTML Editing Control on your system and that this has resolved your problems.

Have you considered adding my solution to the article, or adding a reference to this thread so that others might see a very simple solution to the problem which appears to be a lot more low-effort than anything else in the article?
The link to the DHTML is broken. Can a current link be added to the solution?
I selected the link Andrew provided and the page loaded with no issues.
Yes, the link Andrew provided to the Text editor workaround works, but the link to DHTML solution under Option 3 there does not.
