I've done this before but years ago - more than five. I really like the idea of external .4DD files, but have not mastered the niceties of the paths and such.
I've got a simple setup with a component that includes a .4DD file. I want the component to open up and use the data file. I've gotten this working when everything is interpreted. With a compiled component, I get a stack of errors, starting with error -43, file not found. The error stack that it's looking for a .4DB file, not a .4DC file. I've manually changed permissions on all of the files to be...generous. (What's up with that? Is this normally required? It seems so in my case on OS X.) I've tried opening up the .4DC from inside of the component and selecting the .4DD right next to it before moving the component over to the host. No help. I've tried specifying .4DC in the USE DATABASE path, but that doesn't work at all. Suggestions appreciated. ********************************************************************** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) FAQ: http://lists.4d.com/faqnug.html Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: http://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **********************************************************************
