Backup Exec 12 External component has thrown an exception

I'm running Backup Exec 12.0 Rev 1364. Server 2003 Standard x64.

If I open the properties of an existing job and click submit or cancel I receive the following error:

External Component has thrown an exception.
Stack Trace:
at BackupExec.UI.BEDlgs.JobListShowProperties(Guid guid)
at BackupExec.UI.Data.JobInst.OnProperties(Command command)

I've tried re-registering pvcalendar.ocx and restarted all the services (and server) as per http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/302050.htm

I can create new jobs without an error.

Any suggestions?

Same problem here, except running 32bit Server 2003.

Thanks Zippy

I'll look into upgrading to 12.5. Wish it was part of Live update!

I've tried the PVCALENDAR.OCX a couple of times to no avail.

Thanks
Haven't actually had time uto upgrade it on this server, bu this has worked on other machines according to other forum posts.
