Problems with IDE

Judith, I have associated prj files with the IDE. This worked with the previous version, but with the new version it says that it can't find ide.cfg. My guess is that the IDE is looking in the current directory, which is the directory with the .prj cild in it, when it should be looking in the ide directory. The previous version did the same thing, but created an ide.cgf file in the current directory (which was annoying). For reasons that aren't clear to me, the IDE is declaring all controls as global constants, when I think they should be declared as local constants. I am making a program that contains many IDE-generated include files, and the control names are conflicting. I can't see any need for accessing a control from another file directly. The reason I split the program into separate files is so that I wouldn't have any name conflicts. I tried to fix this problem, but the IDE source code is huge and I didn't know where to look. I think that there should be an option (a control property) that determines whether a control will be global. The default should be local. For now, I have to edit the exw (or ew) file manually. :( By the way, the IDE is a really cool tool, I use it all the time. Keep up the good work. regards, Daryl van den Brink
