Problem

[hartrans]

Hi
I wrote a program in VFP6 and distribute that as EXE with runtime files VFP6 SP4. The problem is that whenever I want to search/find a particular record it search the record but close the program immediately.

Please tell me what to do next for rectify this problem.

Your question/problem isn't very clear. You're using LOCATE FOR? SELECT WHERE? SEEK()?

If the exe works in the development environment but not as a stand-alone application then the problem is usually something to do with the READ EVENTS and CLEAR EVENTS commands. Either the READ EVENTS isn't being executed or the CLEAR EVENTS is being executed too soon.

Arun,

I agree with Baltman. Yoiu'll have to provide more information about the code you have written.

With this kind of problem, it's often best to try to reproduce the problem in the simplest possible form. Try to write a program that performs whatever action you are having difficutlies with, and nothing else. This will help you focus on the specific issue.

If this cut-down program works, start adding the further functionality that you require until the problem comes back.

One other point: You'll get a better response to your questions at Tek Tips if you use a meaningful title for them. To use a title such as "Problem" doesn't tell us anything, since that same description would apply to maybe 95 percent of postings in this forum.

Mike

Thanks Mike I will be careful in future.

Thanks alvechurchdata, yes I read code carefully and found that one CLEAR EVENTS is being executed there, I remove that and program working fine.

Thanks all for responce.
