Hi Don,

I was going to say something with the PATH eviron variable too.
If it doesnt point the the dir with your .exe file it might not
find it or you may have to try opening that .exe with "open with"
in order to get it registered properly with the registry system.
Windows is such a pain with these kind of things that i wouldnt
be suprized if it's something like that.  

In any case, if you cant get it working yet reply again and we'll
try different things.

Also, i have a program in the archives that sets up your eviron
for Euphoria and it's easy to use because you just run it.
I think it sets up the PATH var too but i'd have to double check.

Oh yeah, dont forget to log off then back on to get the new eviron
to take effect.  Might have to reboot.


Take care,
Al

And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!
