Problems with Search Paths in Config.pro
Problems with Search Paths in Config.pro
(OP)
Hi Folks,
I have found that the search path in Config.pro will not recognise spaces in the names of folders.
For example
C:/Year 2000/Data will not work , while
C:/Year2000/Data works fine.
Why is this so?
I can rename all the folders in the search path to solve this, but is there an easier option?
Any comments welcome!

RE: Problems with Search Paths in Config.pro
Why? I guess we need to ask the programmers.
You cant use wildcards in the search_path names. But I do recall that there was an option to search folders recursivley. This may help you out.
Else, you will have to rename.
But there is a work-around.
1-Create the search_path for the folders with the spaces.
2-Save your config.pro file.
3-When you open ProE, simply reopen and APPLY the same config.pro file.
4-Now you can read those folders with spaces.
5-Make a mapkey to OPEN and APPLY the config.pro file.
