Version 2.2.0 of GE-Graph was released today.

New features:

• Compatible with GE4 and kml 2.1
  
• Read polygon kml file (territory borders, etc)
  
• Draw bars with any regular polygon form
  
• Reorder polygons coordinate sequence (if necessary) to show right fill colors
  
• Automatic set (and restore on exit) the decimal separator (if necessary)
  
• Custom color scale
  
• Choice to position the title and color scale (top/botton)
  
• Save and load Options file
  

It can generate now more interesting graphs:

I can't make GEPATH 1.4.1 to work, it gives an error dialog box that says:
______
GEPath:
System Error &H8007007E (-2147024770). The specified module could not be found.
______
I've tested in 2 pcs. One WinXp Sp1 and another with WinXP Sp2.
It's installed the vb6 runtimes as indicated and also re-registered the ecGrid.ocx with RegisterDllTool.
(GEGraph_2.2.0 is working well though.)

Any ideas?
Tks a lot

ps: thanks rsgrillo for those excellent programs.

Hi Javier_py,

This version of GE-Path uses a library with a set of controls, called FM20.dll. The developers are not allowed to distribute this .dll along with their applications. In most of the computers this file is installed with Microsoft Office.

I advise you to go to Microsoft site in this page and just download and instal the Microsoft ActiveX Control Pad (free). This should fix the installation of FM20.dll and GE-Path shall then work well.

Please, feedback

It worked well when installing that MS ActiveX Control Pad!


I discovered later that my problem was simply a missing file: fm20ENU.DLL (in my 2nd pc, i only had to put this file).
I used (and recommend) the great DEPENDENCYWALKER program - http://dependencywalker.com/ - .
When you do a PROFILE with GEPath.exe, you will get this message:

GE-Path 1.4.1:
LoadLibraryExW("C:\WINDOWS\system32\fm20ENU.DLL", 0x00000000, 0x00000000) returned NULL. Error: The specified module could not be found (126).

.... WAY BETTER than that awful message from that windows dialog box eh?

tks a lot!

Great work, thank you, this really is an excellent tool!

I was wondering whether there was any way to make GE Graph run from a command line, so that it would open a table (specified in the command line), and automatically output a graph to a default location using default settings?

Thanks Tiresias. The current version don't have command line options. However I will include your suggestion to be considered in the next version.

First of all, your application is amazing. I'd been trying to do exactly what gegraph does for a while, but to no avail. I do however have a problem. Most of the time when I try to input a set of data, if I select the option for "Place Name" under "Labels" I get the following error.

"Open of file "c:/...../dk.kml" failed: Parse error: Parse error: Expected entity name for at line: 360 at line: 360"

The line number is different for different sets of data, but everything else in the error message remain.

Like I said, this is Most of the time. If the data set is very small, sometimes it works, but it has even given this error with only two values. Originally I thought maybe it was because some of my values used the same lat/lon, but even after testing the data with unique lat/lons, it still gives the error.

Again, great program. If I don't enable labels, it works perfectly. But being able to use labels for my data would be very helpful.

Ignore my last post. I'm retarded. I realized withint minutes of my post that a few of my labels had "&" signs in them. After a quick find/replace, problem solved.

Moral of the story: If anyone else gets the error in my last post, check your data names for weird symbols like "&". Hopefully my mistake can help someone out in the future.

Hi tj,

Thanks for your post. Avoid also to use the symbols < > and / in the place names and descriptions. When parsing the input file GE-Graph (and GE-Path) will not know if this is part of the kml tag delimiter or of the name/description and an error could be generated, either by the application or by GE, when opening the file.

I'd like to inform that GE-Path and GE-Graph has moved to http://www.sgrillo.net/googleearth/ .

I am happy to inform that Google is recommending GE-Graph. See http://www.google.com/educators/google_earth.html
