Cannot generate .pff in CSPro 6.2

Post by KSHELLEN »

I am new to CSPro and think I've been correctly developing a dictionary and form but I am trying to create a .pff file so that I can use CAPI on my android device but every time I hit "run" (the little stoplight icon) a dialogue box opens asking me to "select data file". The instructions say that a .pff file should be generated automatically by clicking run so I have no idea what I am doing wrong. Any thoughts?

Select the data file (you can just enter a filename and it will create a new file) and let the application start. After that you will have the .pff file. The location and name of the data file are stored in the .pff file so the .pff can't be created until you have chosen the data file name.

Thanks, Josh. I assumed that I was supposed to be locating the file, not naming a new one. It works!
