Why is VB6 creating .spr file with O kb

[peter11]

My students are creating an animated game, Wac A Rat. Most of them have the code correct but the .spr file is empty?

It should be 192 kb but theirs is 0 kb

Why is this happening?

I'm not familiar with that file extension.
What's it supposed to hold?

Ahhh. I had guessed that it might be a sprite file (hardware accelerated bitmapped graphics, like the old Atari 800 and Commodores used to have).

Thanks, Eric.

Peter -- I think you need to find a copy of Foxpro so you can load that file up and see what it contains. Once you have that, you can use VB to duplicate it.
