TP runs fine, but when i compile a pas file and it creates an exe, once i
run the exe, as soon as the prog ends, the window dies.... Is there any way
around this other than opening command.com and calling the exe from there?

Also, at first, my pas files were compiling to memory. I managed to get them
to compile to exe's, but i have no idea how... any ideas?

TIA

You can run the program directly from the IDE in most cases; this will
return you to the IDE when the program ends. Otherwise, you need to
run it separately from the command line; if you just run the executable
from Windows, the program window will become inactive when your program
ends.

I can give you the advice I usually get:

Put this at the end of your program, it'll wait until
the user presses a key.

var ch;

Start Explorer and find the program.
Right click on the program.
Select "Settings" (in Win95 it is the last menu).
On the page with the program name (probably named "Program"), you can change if
the window should close automatically.

I can't give you the exact text to look for, as I am using a danish version of
Win95.

I hope this helps.
