Structured FrameMaker failure on startup

[Alan Houser]

Hi Pankaj,

I un-installed and re-installed .NET Framework, and now FrameMaker 11 
and 12 start successfully in structured mode. Thank you for correctly 
diagnosing the problem!

I had not made any (known) changes to my system before the failure. I 
suspect a Microsoft auto-update corrupted my .NET Framework.

Thanks again!

-Alan
