No error message whatsoever. When I save the source code, it does not
have the exw extension though. BTW I'am using MEditor.

I did some further testing and the Meditor behaved differently this
time. In the Meditor I copied the program, opened a new file and pasted
the program then press F5 to run it. This time, Meditor asked to save
the program firs, did it with the proper extention then ran the program
flawlesly. Strange....?
