If you're going to insist that your user install .pdb files, why not handle the situation where they forgot/ignored you/didn't read the readme gracefully?
You have to open those databases, right? If they're not there, you could handle that return code, and pop up a dialog box saying "Hey loser, install the xxx.pdb file as the readme said!". Uh...okay, so maybe not those exact words, but you know what I mean...;^) -Ken On Thu, 2003-01-23 at 17:54, christy wrote: > Is there a way to ENFORCE the "downloader" to include > the .pdb files?
