 | Hello:
I consisently get the error noted below when I try to generate a new project from the application folder. However, there is no error when I try to generate a new project from the default DBASE folder C:\Program Files\dBASE\PLUS\BIN\dBLCore\ProjExp where I click on the file ProjExp.wfo.
Error: Data type mismatch. Expecting: Character
File: ProjExp.wfo
Routine: CURSOR::BEGINWAIT
Line: 8877
Regards,
George Balanis

This error was also reported by Tim Dain on 12/09/2004 in this newsgroup.
It appears that the error occurs when a form is run that uses a procedure
that is also used by the Project Explorer and the procedure is not closed.
Are you opening any forms or programs before running the Project Explorer
that might cause this conflict?
Thanks,
Danita Brooks

Hello Danita Brooks:
I do open a procedure that sets paramets and then I close it. To my knowledge all forms are closed. However, I am in another folder than the default DBASE folder where PLUS.exe is located.

George,
If no other forms are running, the procedure stack should be empty. To
check if any procedures are left open, run
?setto("procedure",1)
in the Command window. Run this line incrementing the second parameter
until an empty string is returned.
If you find that some procedures are open, run
close all persistent
in the Command window and then try running the Project Explorer.
