Hello All,
When I compile my .cpp file, I get the following error
"[C++ Fatal Error] sample1.cpp(407): F1013 Error writing output file"
Could somebody tell me what might be wrong?

Thanks

Apart from other reasons, already noted by other posters, I think it
is probable you have a precompiled header file defined to be wrritten
in a non-existent directory.

What version of Builder?

If it's BDS2006 check the length of your include directive.

Do we have to believe that a message like 'Error writing output file'
in BDS2006 still is not accompanied with the full path filename ?

Not done. Please help yourself. I'm unable to find a button 'Ad Report'
in the browser interface of http://qc.borland.com/wc/qcmain.aspx

Found. But this site is unwilling for me. When asked to login
and entering Email Address and Password I get a page:

<page>
An error occurred in the application:

The exception type is:
InvalidCastException

The message that came along with the exception is:
Object cannot be cast from DBNull to other types.

You were attempting to access this link:

http://qc.borland.com/wc/qcmain.aspx?ar=728
</page>

Then when I try agein and use the BDN cookie link I manage
to login but then returning back to that page it pretends that
I am not logged in. I gave up again.

This apparently happens if you use the wrong combination.

I guess your password is either wrong, or not the BDN or QC password, or
can't be found by Borland, for some odd reason. I only know that others
have had similar problems with their passwords, in QC.
