or

When trying to add a user to a group:

RU Using Drumbeat 2000 with the XP fix??

PROBLEM SOLVED !!!

*****
Original Problem
Unable to display the user selection dialog. (null
(this error appears as soon as I click the Add button!
I also have a similar problem when trying to edit user permissions within administration (under Computer Management) When editing users in an attempt to make an existing user a member of a new group, I get the following error
An error occurred attempting to create the Object Picker. An error with no description has occured
****

SOLUTION!!

Seems this error is caused by replacing the file RICHED32.DLL with a previous version. For those of you who may have used a program called Drumbeat 2000, (mabe others too) replacing the windows XP RICHED32.DLL with an older one from Windows 98SE is a required workaround for the WYSIWYG to work properly

Don't forget to delete the file in the DLL cache directory or it will come back... (create a batch file to replace RICHED32.DLL file in both directories quickly so system does not automatically revert to other DLL.
 
Thanks
Renamed riched32.dll to old, it recreated the file and
works just fine now.
