I have attached a screenshot for reference. In addition to Akshat's response, the reason this occurs is that unlike .PRG, .WFM, and so on, type files, .CC files are not normally "executable" -- if you double-click a .PRG file, dBASE will run it. If you double-click a .CC file, it gets added to the .ini file as something to load when dBASE starts. I would guess you were in the tutorial folder (if you did the tutorial) when you did this based on the names of the files. The moral of the story, don't double-click .CC files. ;) Ken -- *Ken Mayer* Ken's dBASE Page: http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase The dUFLP: http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase/index.htm#duflp dBASE Books: http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase/Books/dBASEBooks.htm dBASE Tutorial: http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase/Tutorial/00_Preface.htm dBASE Web Tutorial: http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase/WebTutorial/00_Menu.htm dBASE DOS to Windows Tutorial: http://www.goldenstag.net/dbase/DtoWTutorial/00_Menu.htm | |
