I am having trouble compiling a project that I built back in 2007. Back then, I was using EB ver 1.59. I recently installed version 1.737 from the website.
This project consists of one main program file, one Include file (DDoc.inc) and five resource files (3 scalable images and 2 icons).
I get the following when I try to Compile the project;
Begin Message From Compiler
Compiling...
ddoc.inc
nasm: error: more than one input file specified
type `nasm -h' for help
Error(s) in assembling "E:\Check-In Package Program\ddoc.a"
End Message From Compiler
I get the following when I try to "Rebuild All"'

If I take the same file and compile it as a single file build it compiles and runs fine without the DDoc features.
I have a feeling it is something simple....
just guessing since I don't have any code to look at.
Open Project/Options and then click the Advanced tab and clear the Assembler Options window
If that doesn't work then delete the project(ebp) file and recreate it.
Hey Larry,
Clearing the Assembler Options made it build and run alright (It had a 1 or an l in the window). It just doesn't seem to execute any of the DDoc32.dll code. The GUI comes up and all the menus and buttons work. No errors. Just not the printing functions.
The compiler output is this;
Begin Compiler Output

No Errors

Thanks again,

I need to see your .eba source file and any *.inc it might be calling other than "windows.inc".
If you don't want to post it where everyone can see it then email me a copy.
Otherwise I can't be of much help.
I also need a sample JCP file to test printing.
In meantime is there a ddoc32.lib file in your EBDev\libs folder?
As best as I can tell is that there is no selected printer.
I can't be absolutely sure since my printer is connected across the lan and not connected directly to my printer.
But I can't see where you select/set a printer, but I'm not that familiar with DDOC hardly at all.
My suggestion would be to create the smallest test program you can just to get your printer to print something using DDOC.
Sorry I couldn't help more.
This note is a follow-up on this thread. Nobody likes untidy threads.
Thanks to Larry (he spent at least five hours on my problem) for figuring out that I had different versions of ddoc installed. This reminds me that I need to pay more attention and do a better job of documenting my own code.
You're a good guy Larry,
Jim
Glad I was able to finally help.
