Why is that? > Hi, I've had the same trouble. Set the Options/Directories/Include and -/Source to match the source and include directory of the current file in the editor. My guess is that RHIDE doesn't look for the file to be compiled in the directory from which you loaded to the editor, but in the directory set under Options/Directories/Source. Ideally, the directory of the file in the editor should be added automatically to the settings in the Options/Directories/Source, and discarded when that file is closed. When you work with projects, the settings under Options are automatically saved as part of the project file. Wim van Berlo
