RE: [Dev-C++] opening files

When you run DevC++ from the IDE (ie the development environment) and =
don't specify a file path when opening files, then DevC++ uses the =
default path, ie the location of your DevC++ program files, usually =
"C:\Program Files\Dev-C++\Bin" or similar. So this is where your =
application will look when trying to open a file.=20
=20
To get around this. either specify the full path of the files you are =
trying to open, or put the files in the same place as your DevC++ =
application. The first suggestion is the more elegant and efficient.=20

Subject: [Dev-C++] opening files







Hi=20

I am currently running Dev C++ v.4.  I have XP home edition as my OS.  =
When i compile and run my program, the files I am trying to read from =
are not being found.  They are located in the same directory as my .cpp =
files and the program works at a different location running Win 2000!

Any ideas?

Damian
