Hi,

What is your SAP GUI version and patch level.Also which BI add on you have applied 3.x or 7.0.

You can try uninstalling SAP GUI 7.2 and install GUI 7.10,this has helped our BW team members.

Hi ashutosh

the following information of SAP GUI:

  • Component: SAPLogon for Windows

  • Release: Final Release 720

  • Fichero: saplogon.exe

  • vers.Fichero: 7100.4.17.1045

  • Build: 1147943

  • Patch Level: 17

whether if it is which version of WAD but I am interested in running and to open the Web Application Designer in any of the versions: 3.x or 7.0, but the important is that can be work with some WAD model because in version Web Application Designer 7.0 is enable pero when i search some WAD model (I know that it exists in the system) The system search says it does not exist or no found.

I can't try uninstalling because I'm not a support person so I have not authorization, I'm a consultant and only want to work with WAD models

I have this version on my laptop:

MAIN MODULE INFORMATION:

saplogon.exe

SAP Logon for Windows

Final Release 710

7100.4.19.1047

Patch 19 for SAP GUI 7.10 and i don't face any such issue while opening WAD.May be you can contact your local Basis support and get it upgraded to SAP GUI 7.10 Patch 19 or higher.

Also please check this this forum link " " which talks about same issue.

Its issue due to windows 7,I guess.

install: DHTML Editing Control for Applications Redistributable Package (x86).

Download link:

After that check it.

Hi Liz,

Did you try to restart after installing IE 8 ?

Also Do you have .NET Framework installed on your system?

Please try "Install All" SAP 7xx frontend on your machine, followed by the .NET framework and then the Business Explorer.
