Hi Matt,

Still the same problem. I compiled the app with gofish.prrg as "main". I copied the app to my VFP directory. I changed to another project directory, ran gofish4 and the following error resulted.:

It's clear that goFish4 will "remember" the last project regardless of directory. Yes goFish continued to search it's own project. You may want to re-think that feature since it probably will cause confusion. Many developers often work on many different projects.It is very likely goFish will run with the wrong project selected. Might it be possible to use directory based project retention? Perhaps if the developer were to begin a search in a directory where gofish4 has not yet been run they would be prompted for Directory/Project selection. You could then store a "cookie" local to that directory.

Otherwise I have not yet fully tested the program. In the next few days I will try to give it a thorough shakedown.

Thanks for all your hard work, it has been and will continue to be a very valuable tool to the VFP community.

Thanks

Glenn

>Are you running it from the GoFish.prg startup prg in the project? If so, the problem is that you are using GoFish to search the GoFish project, and it's trying to search the very same SCX file that you are running, so it can't open the SCX (with the USE command) in that case. That won't work.

>(Even then, you still cannot search the GoFish project with it. VFP will still get confused.)

>By the way.... The default mode when GF runs is to search the active project. I believe that GoFish was your active project at that time? That's where the problem comes from. You need to click on the Advanced button and choose one of your own projects or folder paths to search, and then I think you will be able to use it without any issues.

>>Hello Matt,
>>
>>I downloaded the latest version as of July 8,2011. I have not signed on to actively beta test but I thought I would give it a go. Here are my findings with the latest distro.
>>
>>1. When you open the project the file "gofish_formatgrid.fxp" is missing. In addition the gofish_formatgrid.prg is nowhere to be found as well. I did find gofish_formatgrid_sample.prg.
>>I copies gofish_formatfrid_sample to gofish_formatgrid and was able to open the project.
>>
>>2. After running buildgofish.prg I started goFish4.app and it started without errors.
>>3. I attempted to start a fishing expedition for "Carp" as the program threw a file in use error. I documented the error as follows:

>>>>>GoFish has been around for years, and I’ve recently taken over development of it, with permission from original author Peter Diotte, and have added tons of new features. One great thing about GoFish is that it is usually 3 to 10 times faster than Code References. And, the new UI has been redesigned to actually look very much like Code References, so that it will feel very familiar to existing CR users. But it has even more features, like post-search filtering, searching on TimeStamps of objects within a form or class, and fully colorized code views.
