Error when trying to Run from Project Explorer

[Donald J. Minick]

When trying to run (right click-run) a wfm or prg from the project explorer
I get the following error:

Error: Variable undefined: RUNFILE

File: pBuilderplus.pop
Routine: PBUILDERPLUSPOPUP::RUN_ONCLICK
Line: 224

Worthy of note, I was unable to register funcky60.dll either during normal
install of 2.2 or in subsequent manual attempt (see prior post in this NG)

I am getting the same thing. I have a one-line PRG that just runs the
form ("Do LockTest.wfm with true"). I get this error when executing
the WFM or the PRG from the project explorer.

[Note: Dbase 2.20, Windows 2000, lotsa memory and free disk space.]

I also get NOTHING when running the EXE from the project explorer.
Other EXE files I have created work just fine from the project
explorer. I suspect that the problem may be in the program or form or
datamodule, not the project explorer. Further research is ongoing.

However, I can run the WFM and the PRG from the navigator with no
errors whasoever.

I cannot run the EXE from My Computer or the Windows Explorer. When
tested on a Win98 machine, LockTest.exe did create a new INI file, but
nothing else happened. (This machine has the runtime only).

This is a very small form, program and datamodule and a small 15 row
table. I can zip it all up and send a copy if you are interested,
Ken.

Why there is ALWAYS one more bug.
1. Debuging code is always much harder than writing it.
2. Therefore, if your code is as clever as you are capable of
making it, you are, by definition, inadequate to debug it.

This has been addressed in an internal build. Once some more fixes are
done we hope to get the completed version out there.

Yes. There are problems building an exe from the new PE, and those
have been addressed.

Ken,

And here is an interesting development in that research. I followed
your suggestion and renamed ProjExp so that the old one would come up.
At first I thought all was fixed because I could now "run" the PRG or
the WFM from the PE with no problem.

However, the following three options on the "Build" menu are grayed
out.

Build LockTest.exe
Run
Debug

That seems strange.

I then use the old PE to open a project that had worked correctly in
the past with the 2.20 PE and now all the Build menu options are live.
(i.e. the three above are no longer grayed out.)

Thus, I still think part or all of the problem is in the PRG, WFM
and/or DMD pieces of the project.

All of the projects that worked and compiled as expected in the NEW PE
also work for me in the OLD PE. This one project that would not work
in the new PE works better in the old PE, but still does not work
correctly.

My offer to send a zip file still stands...

Check to make sure that you have a "Main" file.

There are, as noted, many problems with the new PE that have been
addressed.
