Compiled App does not display bitmap

[Daryl23]

I have run a full compile and deployment activities from my development system. I have Listed in the deployment window a resource file with my bitmap "Logo" included. The bitmap sits within the same subdirectory as my pbl's and pbd's.

I can see the bitmap on reports when I run my application in the development environment. I can see my Bitmap when I run the compiled PBD's and exe from an entirly different directory on my development system.

However, The bitmap image does not show up on any other system where the application is deployed. (I have included both the bitmap and the Resource file with my deployment pbd's as a safety measure although the Exe did increase in size when I compiled and deployed the App.)

Other previously compiled Bitmap Images show up without a problem in the new compile on both my system and other newly deployed systems as well.

Have you verified in the object properties of whatever control displays the bitmap that you do not have the path specified?

("c:\bmps\logo.bmp" is wrong while "logo.bmp" is right)

Thank You Matt:
Yes, every bitmap is listed without any path attached!
one line per image
logo.bmp

is how it is set.

Is the folder where the bitmap resides on the PC you do the compile part of the PATH setting?

Good Morning Matt,
I have found the problem.
The full path was included on the bitmap properties sheet for the datawindow.
I should have simply typed my bitmap name instead of selecting it via the elipsis button.

Apparently even though the bitmap was included in the build, PoweBuilder still looked for the image at the development path listed under properties.

Thank you for your help
