QUESTION: I keep getting the error message "Couldn't find [utilityname]"
and I know the utility is available. What's wrong?
ANSWER: There are two things that can cause this problem:
(1) User has TC++ and BC++ on their meachine and has inserted the BC++
directory (\BORLANDC\BIN) into their system path after the TC++
directory (\TC\BIN;\BORLANDC\BIN)... seems to be a benign thing to
do..... However this will result in the error message "Couldn't find
TASM.EXE" in cases where an ASM module appears in a project file.
TASM.EXE is, in fact, in both \BORLANDC\BIN and \TC\BIN and correct
paths appear in Options-Directories.
Removing the TC++ path fragment or putting the BC++ path first
corrects the problem.
(2) User has both BC++ and the Software Development ToolKit (SDK) and
has inserted the BC++ path after the SDK path (\WINDEV;\BORLANDC\BIN)
which seems like a benign thing to do.... however, this will result
in the error message "Couldn't find RC.EXE" even though RC.EXE
appears in both the SDK directory and the BC++ directory.
Removing the SDK path or putting the BC++ path first in the system
path corrects the problem.
