I just download the BlackBox 1.7 (CPC Edition) and unpack it to an empty directory. BlackBox.exe starts without error.

Did you unpack the new version into an existing old BlackBox directory by overwrite it?
I recomment to delete all your Code (*.ocf) and Sym (*.osf) files before you unpack the new BB version into an existing directory.

To getting started you should delete the directories Code & Sym in the top level directory. At this level there are the directories Com, Comm, Ctl, Dev, Docu, Form, Host, Obx, Ole, Sql, Std, System, Text, Win and Xhtml.

Mixing up old and new code files is not a good practice. This kind of errors are very hard to find. Please recompile all your modules.
The easiest way is to delete all your old code and sym files before you start with the new version.
