thanks to "coincoin" for this program...

now if you havent already you need to make a folder in the c:/ drive called bfdev....it will look like this

c:/bfdev

now you need to make 3 folders in there

objects folder

textures folder

standardmesh folder

now extract the objects,textures,and standardmesh from the mod your using and put in these folders

now extract your map to the c:/drive...it will make a folder and look like this

c:/bf1942

now after deleting the old editor42 and installing the new editor42 ver4 it will come to the setup directory

all you need to change are the first 2 lines...

in the first line put this (base directory)

c:\bfdev\

in the second line put this (levels directory)

c:\bf1942\levels\

now when you select open it should have your map name in the listing box..select it and your map should show and you should be able to edit like usual...and a few nicely added features..will post more on this new tool soon...
