I searched the WriteLog reflector archives for this and found mostly "packet
OLE automation object" posts. While browsing, I did find one that clicked
something in my aging brain. Here are five suggestions. Read all five before
doing anything.
1. Open writelog.ini (use the start menu WriteLog group shortcut) and save it
to another location on your hard drive as a backup, then close it. Now open the
original writelog.ini again and scroll down to the [RTTY] section. Highlight
the entire [RTTY] section (including [RTTY]) and any other RTTY sections
[RTTY2], [RTTY3], ec. and delete them (it's possible you only have one [RTTY]
section.)
Now save the file and close it. Restart WriteLog and Rttyrite. You may have to
set up your RTTY parameters again.
2. If this doesn't fix it. Delete writelog.ini completely (remember you saved
writelog.ini elsewhere as a backup). It's located here:
C:\Users\username\AppData\VirtualStore\Windows\writelog.ini
Now restart WriteLog and it will create a new writelog.ini file but you will
have to completely rebuild WriteLog from scratch.
3. If you are using the MMTTY plug-in for WriteLog instead of MMTTY via
xmmt.ocx, perhaps there is a problem with the path to mmtty.exe. Open
writelog.ini and search for mmtty and see if the path is correct. It should
look something like this:
MMTTY_LOCATION=C:\Ham\MMTTY\MMTTY.EXE
It won't be exactly like that because that is the location where MMTTY resides
on my computer. If that's not the problem then see #4.
4. If you are using the MMTTY plug-in for WriteLog, uninstall it and then
re-install it using the Writelog Legacy Installer Helper. See instructions here:
http://www.rttycontesting.com/tutorials/writelog2/legacy-installer-helper/
5. If you are using the MMTTY plug-in for Writelog, try MMTTY via xmmt.ocx
instead. Instructions here:

Let us know how you make out.

Subject: [WriteLog] Can't create rtty OLE Automation Object
All,
Last month participated in the CQWW RTTY for a short time and had no problem.
Last week wanted to participate in the
Jarts RTTY, no matter what I tried could not get it to start. Every time
clicking on RTTY Rite the Can’t create rtty OLE Automation
Object comes up. Finally went to another program and had no problem at all
contesting. I am not computer expert that’s why I don’t
like to change any thing.
Computer is an Acer Desk top with Windows 7 home premium 64 bit operating system
WriteLog version 11.0.30.3
MicroKeyer Original
DX Cluster VE7CC
Hope some one can assist with easy to follow instructions
73, Noel (OM) N3NZ
