Well, now this is interesting. Adding this to the shortcut
on my problem machine is what I tried first before. But if
I right-click the shortcut and choose "properties" the target
is listed like this:
"C:\Program Files\ITT\IDL70\idlde\idlde.exe"
It HAS the quotes. If I try to stick -clean in after the .exe
and before the last quote:
"C:\Program Files\ITT\IDL70\idlde\idlde.exe -clean"
I get a "Problem with Shortcut" error and I am told the
name in the target box is not valid. I can't do this.
However, if I go to my other machine, the target is similar,
but it does not have quotes around it:
G:\Programs\ITT\IDL70\idlde\idlde.exe
and I can *easily* add the -clean to this target.
Humm. This cannot possibly be a problem with spaces in file
names, could it? That would be too, too weird. :-(
Awaiting further instructions... :-)
Cheers,
David
