You are leaving the file open in the editor while you run it for testing and
you have some variables or something screwed up in your code that causes an
access violation.
I have had this happen in this scenario many times myself and until the code
is correct, it will happen again. What I usually do when the save fails is
copy the contents of the editor window to the clipboard (you know Highlight
everything and Ctrl-V), then exit the RBase session, restart, reopen the
file and replace the contents from the Clipboard.
It is no fault of RBase when you do something that renders the environment
to an unstable condition from repeated snafus. It happens in other IDEs as
well, but it is an indication that you should judiciously run RStyle and be
certain of proper (and timely) variable declarations in your code. Look for
old tips on declaring variables in While Loops and the like which are traps
for instability as well.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - RE: Rbase won't save "RBE" changes.....
We are in a multi-user environment. I think this might be the issue some
of
the time but i also know that i am in the office alone at times and it
still
happens. It also happens more often when i am opening and closing the same
file over and over. Making little tweaks and then saving each time and
running it inbetween. It is not a critical error. I've not lost any data
over it but It is just annoying as all hell.
Thanks for all the help.
Daniel
btw....We are using Windows XP Professional

If your file is in use by the system, it will be locked. If you use an
external copy of RBEdit, for example, and you invoke it without closing a
trace, you will be unable to save the file. The same will happen in a
multi
user environment when another user is running the file.

Hey gang. New to the group. Hope you can help...
It seems that almost every time i open a "RBE" RBedit file to make
changes,
Rbase won't let me save the changes and i will have to copy my changes,
completely exit out of the program, start the program and paste back into
the "RBE".
Any insight would be greatly appreciated,
Regards,
Daniel Lopez
P.S. I'm using Rbase 7.6 on new machines over a network, having the files
shared via a server running SBS 2003.
