Question and Answer Database FAQ437C.txt 'Could Not Create Process' Error Category :IDE Platform :Win95/NT Product : All32Bit Question: Why do I get this error? How do I fix it? Answer: This error is reported by the compiler when running a program inside of the IDE and it cannot find a .DLL that the program calls. Most times this happens in SAFE MODE when windows by- passes your AUTOEXEC files. In order to run under safe mode go to a DOS window, set your path to the bc\bin dir and type BCW from the DOS prompt. Open, Build, and run the project. You can also try and run the .EXE outside of the compiler, windows will give you an error explaining which .DLL the prog cannot find, you can copy the .DLL's to the WINDOWS\SYSTEM dir which IS in the path in SAFE MODE. (Note: this error can also be caused in older versions of Borland C++ if you compile a .cpp file with no associated project _while the message window is in the foreground_.) 7/2/98 10:32:32 AM
