Actually ... it is a simple problem to fix. The error is as a result of a missing dll that was in version 6 but no longer in version 7. The dll needed is msvcr71.dll (it's a "C runtime dynamic link library"). It just needs to be copied into the installed folder (defaulted to C:\Program Files\Google\Google SketchUp 7). If you already have version 6 installed, then use the version that comes with it (ie version 7.10.3052.4). I've attached it as msvcr71.txt but it first needs to be renamed to msvcr71.dll. As with any files downloaded from the Net, ensure you virus check it before use and check it for tampering ... it should be of size 348,160 bytes exactly and to check this, right-click it, select properties and examine the figure give in brackets for "size". Good luck
