More info?)
I saw the same thing except it said
Found #If
Expected : CLASS,CATEGORY, [strings]
Why would it fail on the "#if version <= 2" statement? Its normal. Its
expected. its in other ADM templates. I can't see any obvious errors in the
rest of the ADm file other than the long String statements.
I am just curious. I have already fixed it by back revving the ADM files.
