I'm picking up a program from a friend of mine that is working on a lower version of windows. When I try to compile his program I get the following error:

Using document type compiler options....
'wpp' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
I'm assuming I need to install wpp but am struggling to figure this out. Can someone help me. I'm running windows 7 with the latest service pack.
Thank you!
wpp error
'wpp' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
As you guessed this message means Zeus can't find the wpp.exe on your computer.
Now this can mean one of two things:
1) The compiler is not actually installed.
2) The compiler is installed but Zeus just can't find it.
So have you installed the compiler
If so where is the wpp.exe file located on your computer
Also do you know the command line used to compile a file using the wpp.exe
The Zeus message that you posted tells me that Zeus is using the compiler setting from the default document type.
This means Zeus is running the command line found here:
Options, Default Document Type menu , Compiler panel, Compiler command line entry.
It probably says something like this:
wpp.exe "$fn"
What you need to do is make sure this compiler command line is correct.
You will also need to make sure that the wpp.exe is in the system path.
For more details on what this means refer to this like: http://www.zeusedit.com/zforum/viewtopi ... light=path
