I downloaded the free version of dark pro and I noticed that you can't make programs into executable files. I was wondering, can you make executables in the real version?

Well this may be a double post, but since I've been waiting for 30 minutes for the moderator to accept my post, I thought that it was possible that I misclicked the post button or something like that >.>. Anyway, I was wondering where you can find the option to make executables in the free version, anyone know how to?

When you compile/run it makes the exe. Hit F5 and you will compile and run it.

Hi, like Mobiius said, an exe is created when you compile and/or run the program. The exe is created/saved in the folder that was created when you saved or created a new project. I don't have the free version of DBPro but this is where I find my exes.

Here are some simple steps to creating a program and finding the exe.

1: Open DBPro
2: Create a new project called "Hello World" and take note of where the project will be created.
3: Copy and paste this code

4: Save the project
5: Compile and run
6: Locate the "Hello World" folder from step 2 and open it
7: Inside there should be an exe. If you run it, it should be the same as what you saw in step 5.

Hope this helps!!!

If you are new to DBPro, don't forget there's a DBPro Newcomers board where many less techy questions have already been answered.

Newcomer questions are often moved to there from here by mods so check there if any go missing...
