Hello

I have tried to program the Basic Pro 40 with no success. After some investigation i found the reason the Compile error "Unable to create HBasic Application Data directory: Error 123" May be the lack of any files being copied to the ide_Basic directory. The ASM and C folders are populated.

Is this an error from the install or the installer? I have been using the 2.0.0.5 version available from the website. I have installed the software onto two computers now. One Windows 7 and one Vista. How do I get the program to compile a simple "hello world" program?

Help... Very frustrated!!!

The ide_basic folder is empty on purpose. Its there in case we need to add special project files in the future but right now basic projects don't need them.

The error you are getting is do to an incorrect path. However the path is generated from the GetSystemPath API call which returns the AppData folder. We then create a new directory, HBasic, in the appdata folder. I suspect the problem is you don't have permissions to do that. When installing Studio you must have Admin privledges. After that you can run it with only user privledges.
