Just installed PB 5.50 and went to compile a program ... got a message box stating that 'The compiler is not loaded yet ...'. Have checked several source files, same thing. This is only happening with the 5.50 release on my Windows 7 system.

Am I shooting myself in the foot somehow?

Tnx.

Tom

Would love to see the source code ... can I download it from somewhere???

Tnx.

Thank you gentlemen ... greatly appreciate it.

As I said in a previous post, I'm having too much fun learning this language ... and after 45+ years developing software having fun is now my prime motivation.

The code below is supposed to put the doubleclicked item in the Listview into the StringGadget. Works fine.

However I can single click an item in the Listview and then double click anywhere on the form and it does the same thing.

Obviously not exactly what I was trying to achieve :?

So ... what ...

Is there a built-in way to retrieve the number of lines in a multiline stringgadget? I need to be able to pull the last line and then, later on, append a new line to the text.

I just completed a 'real' application in PB4 and, although it's extremely simple by the standards of most on here, I'm pleased with how quickly it came together.
