hi all,

i have this pb application and would like to create an exe.

as i finished with the project wizard. i was being prompt with a
message that states:

"Unable to open this project because the add-on software that was used
to create it could not be found.
Perhaps this project was built on another system?"

what is the add-on software the wizard was referring? i am currently
using a Sybase Powerbuilder Enterprise ver 10.5 build 4523. is there
something wrong or missing in my installation? do i need to re-install
my PB? please tell what to do

thanks in advance

It can be caused by having duplicate pbvm105.dll.
The other cause is a configuration issue with Source Control. Rightclick on
your workspace and take a look under the Source Control tab. You might have
enabled a SCC system that is not installed on your computer.

The other cause that I KNOW of, is having the pb dlls in the
windows/system32 directory. Delete them and the problem will go away
(backup what you are deleting to a temp directory first in cas you make a
mistake).
