Have DBPro with all the updates. Running on Windows7 with all the suggested patches and such.
Just simply trying to load an existing DBpro project example and running it, produces a runtime error 1003..trying to load bitmaps or objects.
I believe it to be and environment issue..DBPro does not know where to find the stuff...even when loading from the same directory as the .DBA or .DBPRO file.

What can I do?

That is the Thread for Windows 7 Compatibility...done all of it.
Still not working properly. DBPro still fails to load bitmaps reporting an error 1003.
Does not matter if it is a Gamecreators demo project or one of my own...still get the error.

Try copying a file into the root directory of drive C: and load it into a new prog with the code below.

load bitmap "c:\mypic.bmp",1 : rem place your filename here
wait key

Do you get the error now?
If you do, I'd try uninstalling DBPro, reboot and install it again.

The copy to Root C:\ was a fail.
Uninstalled...reinstalled...reboot...same problem.

What is runtime error 1003?

Your signature has been erased by a mod because we're sadistic losers with nothing better to do. (joke)

runtime error 1003(could not load bitmap).
it has already been explained.
it is not a bitmap issue.
it has to be environment...i have run the programs before and they work fine. DBPro examples or my own code.
Dumped...reloaded...

I cant run dbpro at all...
what else can i do?

Take your entire project, folders files and images, put the entire structure into a zip file, and upload it so we can see exactly what you are doing.

Thanks for the help....
I knew it was an environment issue...
I fixed it myself...

curpath$ = GET DIR$()
SET DIR curpath$

I add these lines to the begining of any program...mine or otherwise...and the error goes away...
