Topic: Another error trap needed

I've noticed that, when trying to open an exiting project, if the path is not recognised, then FWIN.EXE crashes.

This happens to me because I use the excellent VSubst.exe to assign a virtual drive letter G:\ to the path to my Fortran projects directory and, occasionally, I reboot without VSubst.exe in my startup directory and the virtual drive remains unset.   When I then try to open the recent project,  "G:\InStruct\InStruct.prj," Simply Fortran just kicks Fwin.exe over, instead of muttering soothingly to me, "I'm sorry Dave, I can't do that right now"

Re: Another error trap needed

John,

I wasn't aware of this bug, but it is a rather nasty one.  I'll make sure a fix for it squeezes into version 1.21.
