Hallo.
I am working on a project that has been a little wierd when I try to compile it.
What happens is that the blue dots all appear in the code, but no form appears & everything just sits there until I terminate the compile.
I have been able to get around this so far by building the project THEN compiling. Everything has been fine after that.
But now, not even that works.
If I try to start with trace over, the same thing happens, and if I try to start with trace into, I get the CPU box (which is all gibberish to me, anyway) which continues happily until it reaches

0045B1EE call init exit proc

where it just hangs.

Damn'ed if I can figure it.
Can anyone help?
Cheers,
Douglas J Livesey.

Common sense is what tells you the world is flat.
 
It seems to me that the program hangs (maybe an Exception???) before you sees any forms.
When You get the CPU-box acknowledge the MessageBox there and klick Run again (F9), this often brings out the box with the run-time error (i.e. Access to illegal address or whatever).
I had it like that when i tried to read a register value in the Form Constructor, when the register value isn't there make a default, this brings out an exception and the IDE halts on that exception, waiting for You to acknowledge it and go further.
The CPU-box is jibberish to me too by the way.
