Hi,
I am using the Buddy API Xtra to open files from cd. I have two types of
files, powerpoint and acrobat. The acrobat files all open all of the time,
however the powerpoint files do not. The same cd will work on one machine
and not on another. Some work and some do not. It opens powerpoint and
brings up an error message (in powerpoint) saying the path is incorrect. We
have had problems on NT4.0 and 95, seems to work ok on 2000, 98 and
millenium and on OS9 when I change the file structure to mac. Could it be
the powerpoint setup, the powerpoint is all 2000 except on the mac where it
is 1998, or is it something I am doing wrong, are there any ways to check
what it is sending to powerpoint.
The code I have used is:
on mouseUp me
set OK = baOpenFile( the pathName &
"resources/generalprinciples/presentation.ppt","" )
end
Thanks,
Ryan
