Error Making a .Fas file

[jmcshane]

Hi,

I am trying to make a .Fas of a lisp routine using the Visual Lisp Editor Make New Application Wizard but I keep getting :

error: bad argument value: non-negative: -1

The routine runs perfectly whenever I appload it, and having checked all the variables.
the only -1 value returned is for (setq lw (getvar "celweight"))

Has anybody any ideas??

If you do not use 8.3 filename, try that.

Sorry, I'm not with you on that one. What do you mean 8.3 filename ?

In the Visual lisp Editor, I go to File, make application, new application wizard and choose simple. There I specify the Application location and the Application Name and take it from there

If you have a filename like "My program is the best.lsp" you got problem
try
"My_Progr.lsp"
"12345678.123" = 8.3 = a DOS limit, you know Bill G ? ; )
