It's a small 4k file that should be in your install.

My suggestion, first, is to e-mail or call Abacus tech support;

Possibly redo the installation.

Q.  Did you download the FULL install or just the 2.24 upgrade ???

the file, like I said, is in the main FSDS folder.

I'm not at home right now, but let me see what I can dig up .  It may be tonight.

Skyhawk_1,
parmdict.bin is the name of the file.it is suppose to be in the c/ abacus/fsds_v2 folder.Might try a search in your computer.

Hi all,
      Well I searched the systm and found no file so I decided to reinstall again this time I found 2 files I did not have before 1 is called mdl_paramdict_fs2002.txt and the other mdl_paramdict_cfs2.txt they are both in the type of notepad files that you click on to open and read the contents. I tried to create mdl but still comes up with the same message"cant find parmdict.bin"
            I have been in touch with abacus if anything constructive comes out of it I will be posting it into this topic in case someone else have the same problem as it can be very frustrating'
              thanks once again
