To coin an apt phrase, DBPro is giving you the royal run around.

Maybe DBPro thinks you've been bad and revoked all your priveleges, just like 'Prisoner Cell Block H'.

Did it say anything else, and - setup a link to that compiler temp file, it makes a text file when compiling (error log type thingy)
, that might give you more information. I have a link to it on my taskbar, helps a lot.

Good news everyone! I really am THAT good...

@Raven

Can you post a screenshot to put it into context?

screenshot would be hard consideing its not done it since i saved and reopened pro

the actual code i was writing at the time was



the only other stuff there was just my standard basic framework i've used 100x before



that was the source in full at the time - i've not altered it since then either because i wanted to actually get a Shader Extention DLL working cause thats what bert asked for.

dunno... i get alot of strange errors in my IDE, it oftenly get a bug where whenever i press enter or space they don't work until i close and reopen - i know a good few people who get than, some are idiots who have their functions closed but i mean when they're all open.

god knows what causes it because there is no error at all its just a bug - no real way to figure out where i comes from either.
i can't really go over to RGT and post up when i get bugs in the IDE either ... last time i had one in the IDE Guy couldn't recreate it and didn't believe me (which was annoying)
its bloody annoying when they happen only once, then never again - i see it going on, anyone else here does ... send the project somewhere else and not a dickie bird.

Well you know, if the devs believed in every bug they couldn't recreate, they'd never get around to making any patches anyways, would they?

i know when a new error is going to appear, because the Insert Code Template program takes about a minute to appear.

god knows what causes it though

It is odd - today the BOX command wouldn't work - after the editor giving an access violation, I had to reinstall DBPro and create a new Project (just creating a new project wouldn't work)... I got my program up and running around 15 mintues ago...

i reckon its Delphi's memory management ... since upgrading to XP i've had all sorts of access violations from Delphi programs.
personally wish that Guy would switch to something like C#.
i know Guy knows Delphi better but it would make more sense, especially in compatibility means.

i'm quite surprised noone else has developed thier own IDEs yet though, all i've got is a Ciya framework which i keep hitting snags on - i'm really not very good at developing applications, mostly the UI's they trip me up ... so many things you have to make sure work in sync, drives me nuts lol

It's not Delphi's memory management. (BTW: The latest Delphi version and its compiled apps run very well on XP).
It's most likely a device driver problem in connection with the Dream Memo component.

Ogres have layers.
