Problem:

When compiling, I get an error message:
An error occured: Cannot open file
D:alaska\altwin90\XBT0024: Command-line.

Background:

I'm semi-retired, haven't sold a program in several years but still support the hundred or so users I have for my POS program. Last time I changed the code and compiled was over a year ago and, as I recall, everything worked fine. Haven't changed anything in that year (well, not that I know of anyway.)

Made a small change for a user and now it won't compile. Have same setup on 2 computers (win 10 and XP) get same error on both. Looked at documentation and XBT0024 means cannot find file <filename>, but I don't understand... is D:alaska\altwin90\XBT0024 a file it's trying to open/create, or what?

Using xbase build 355 and express build 254.

Probably some simple thing in my advanced age I've overlooked If one of you wizards could assist, I'd be most grateful.

Thanks,
bruce

do you use XbTools

if yes : have you include ---

XBT0024

look here
https://doc.alaska-software.com/content ... sages.html

XBT0024 Command-line error: cannot find file <filename>
The compiler is unable to find the input file <filename>.

did you use a *.XPJ Project File

XBTBASE1.LIB and XBTBASE2.LIB are in the XPJ file.

If you have Teamviewer or Skype, give me a call.

It will be easier to help if I can see the errors.

i have skype and use distant desktop or my remotes. can use teamviwer ... which ever you prefer.
let me know when is convenient for you and i'll make myself available

as always... thanks

Let's try Skype first.
