Creating a Run-Time IDL Application [message #13556]

IDL folks,

Recently I have been playing around with process mentioned on David
Fanning's excellent site:

http://www.dfanning.com/tips/idl_icon.html

My goal is to get an IDL widget application to launch by simply double
clicking on an icon and have no evidence of the IDL Development
Environment in the background.

I have successfully used this process on one widget application and I
was extremely pleased. However, I tried the same methodology on some
other widget applications and when I double click on the .sav icon, all
I see is the "Runtime App" icon appear on my windows (95) toolbar for a
few seconds and then disappear without ever launching the widget
application. Has anyone else experienced this?

I suspect the reason for this anomaly is due to slight differences in
the way the widget applications were coded. Admittedly, I am new to the
world of widgets, so I may have left off a keyword or something so the
auto launch method isn't working. However, the widget applications I am
having problems with launching from a .sav icon work perfectly when run
in the IDL Development Environment manually...

Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
