| Programs works one way, not another. VC++ 6.0 help. I have no idea what could be wrong.. I'm using Visual C++ 6.0. When I compile my project, then execute it (Ctrl +F5), everything works fine. The program does what it's suppose to do. But when I execute the program from outside of VC++ (by just clicking on the .exe), it appears to hang. Like it's getting stuck in a loop or something. I have a function in my Bitmapclass called "DrawtoBuffer()." If I comment-out this line, the program works (when I click on the .exe). But, I don't think anything is wong with my function. I mean, it works correctly when I execute from inside VC++ (ctrl +f5)... I'm confused. Why would it work when I launch it one way, but not another? Here's my function, but I don't know if the problem is in here. You know, what with it working sometimes... Code: void cBITMAP::DrawToBuffer(cXYCOORD Position, cBUFFER &buffer)
{
//Edited out. Embarassed by my code. It didn't have anything to
//do with my problem, anway. :)

| If you're loading a bitmap externally, make sure you have the bmp file in the same directory as your exe. You can put it in the main directory and run your program within VS ( ctrl f5) no problem, but if you go in release/debug directories without moving the bmp it will not work. So just check that first.

| Thanks a lot. That must have been the problem. It works now.. I had this: MyProject: -PicData (folder) -Debug (folder) ---MyProject.exe I moved the PicData folder into the Debug folder. Thanks again.

| Try a messagebox or similar to tell you that the resource was not found. Check the returns from the macros / functions and if they return an error or fail use GetLastError() and print this into a messagebox. Will help your debugging.
