Problems with Exceed
If, upon starting exceed, you receive an error message about a file, "mgc.fdb", being too large, just delete that file.
You may wish to leave the error message box open so that you can follow the Windows directory structure path down to the mgc.fdb file. However, you will not be able to actually delete the mgc.fdb file until you click "OK" in the error box.
