Tsunami Record Manager is not Euman's program, just a wrapper for a library.

The issue here is (most likely) that the Interpreter is looking to open the
Tsunami DLL file from the local directory. You need to move that file with your
executable, or place it somewhere in your path like %EUDIR%\BIN.

NOTE: Binding only binds your *source code* with the Interpreter. Any other
external files used (like DLLs) are still external to your executable.


Hope this helps,
