hello i love programming with euphoria and have no problems running my 'work in progress' (currently a planetarium program) however i dread attempting to run programs by other people (like the ones i find in these archives) in most cases i get this error message: "CANNOT RUN PROGRAM WITH MISSING DATA FILES" underneath a list of files identical to the ones i can quite clearly see in the same folder as the program i am trying to run am i a little bit stupid? or are there some aspects of euphoria that are not as beginner user friendly as they could be? :-s not that im complaining as such it is an excellent programming language for me a lot of hard work has obviously gone into creating this amazing product and it is free thank you for any (keep it simple & step-by-step for me please) advice you can give me love light peace & fondest eel -x-

That will let us know exactly what program you're having difficulty running, and what exactly it says in error. I've never seen the error you've mentioned from running any program I've downloaded & used from the archive. Dan Moyer > > love light peace & fondest > > eel -x-

Couldn't you give us the URL to check it out? We have to know the real source of this message first of all. Regards, Igor Kachan kinz at peterlink.ru
