Hello again Don, I checked out your newest upload of DSS3 and i found it still has a slight problem where you use XP's "open with" to set up the program to open various file types (like .jpg). The problem is that it still cant find the directory where the ssdata file is located. (After set up, right click on file name and use 'open with'). The fix now turns out to be quite simple: In line 9 of the file "Viewer_Globals.ew" change start_dir=current_dir() to start_dir=comm and then rebind to .exe form. Seems to work great after this change, and i think this change was supposed to be included with the new start dir code recently added. Take care, Al And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!

Hello Al, I just now saw your message I haven't been checking the forum much. I've been busy trying to multi boot. So I've been busy with the Ubuntu and Ranish Partition Manager forums. I won't go into all the problems I'm having. But I had start_dir="e:" and I knew that wouldn't work on every computer. So I changed it back to current_dir() I suppose you would have to make comm global(if it isn't all ready). I seems to work ok on Win2k but I'll add you adjustments test it and then upload it. I'm sure your most likely right. Don Cole

Yes AL,
global sequence comm sequence commline commline=command_line() comm=commline[2] for k=length(comm) to 1 by -1 do if comm[k]='\\' then comm=comm[1..k] exit end if end for
Is a good route to find what Directory myProg.exe is running in. Any .ini or necessary files should be in that Dir. I then added: start_dir()=comm Tested and uploaded. I wish you would test the .exe. To see if it will work on everyone's computer. Don Cole Don Cole
