Hello Shaun, Welcome to Euphoria :) I don't have WIN ME, so what I say about your question might not be relevant: When you save your source code, you normally (Win 95,98) need to save it as *.exw (for windows program); I don't know what would give you ".file" as an extent, but that's not the normal Euphoria file extent. In Win Me, can you still "associate" files with programs to open/run them? If so, you would need to associate the file extent ".exw" with the program "exw.exe" (in folder Euphoria/bin). Then clicking (or double clicking) on a program file with ".exw" extent would cause the Euphoria interpreter "exw.exe" to execute, and then the interpreter would run the "*.exw" file you clicked on. I suspect your system does *not* say "c: has not being denifed " (maybe it says "c: has not been defined" , or something like that?) And what exactly are you *doing* with the stuff you downloaded from the archive when you get that message?

I suspect it's just his poor typing skill keep practicing. WinMe is Just an even more cluttered version of 98. Although I now have a choice when I right click on some files to open with one program or anther... --- Dan Moyer <DANIELMOYER at prodigy.net> wrote: > > Hello Shaun, > > Welcome to Euphoria :) > > I don't have WIN ME, so what I say about your > question might not be > relevant: > > When you save your source code, you normally (Win > 95,98) need to save it as > *.exw (for windows program); I don't know what would > give you ".file" as an > extent, but that's not the normal Euphoria file > extent. > > In Win Me, can you still "associate" files with > programs to open/run them? > If so, you would need to associate the file extent > ".exw" with the program > "exw.exe" (in folder Euphoria/bin).
