I'm having trouble with stand-alone builds of my application. My app runs just fine within the Revolution development environment. I'm using an iMac with the latest system software.

Problem A: When I build a Windows stand-alone, it runs just fine within Virtual PC 6.1 on my iMac. When I stick it on my flash drive and take it to a PC, I get generic icons (not the custom one I built with IconFactory--which shows up just fine within Virtual PC) and the app won't open. I get an error message that says something about initialization failing and that the error was 8, 0.

Problem B: When I build a Mac OS X stand-alone, the program opens but doesn't function. I believe I've determined that it hasn't found the data files it access upon startup to get saved variable values. I wrote the following code to get it to access the data files, and this code was working until a couple weeks ago:

if the environment is not "development" then
if the platform is "MacOS" then --Sets the default folder to the correct folder within a Mac OSX bundle (package).
put defaultFolder into ldefaultFolder
put "/CQ.app/Contents/MacOS/" after lDefaultFolder
set the defaultFolder to lDefaultFolder
end if
end if


During development, the data files are inside a folder, which itself is in the same folder as the application.

Anybody got any insight into what appears to be two separate problems?

Thanks,
Steve McNutt
