SUMMARY
When creating a Pure Code resource in Lightspeed C Version 3.00 for use in a Macintosh QuickBASIC Version 1.00 library, the File type and File Creator type can be set from within the Lightspeed C editor. This is not true for earlier versions of Lightspeed C.

The &quot;Microsoft QuickBASIC for Apple Macintosh: Language Reference&quot; manual, Page 451, gives step-by-step instructions for creating a Pure Code resource. Step 6 directs you to leave Lightspeed C, launch ResEdit, and set the File type and File Creator type from within ResEdit.

If you are using Lightspeed C Version 3.00 or later, this can be done from within the Lightspeed C editor by choosing Set Project Type... from the Project menu. A dialog box appears with the option to set the File type and File creator type. For versions earlier than 3.00, Step 6 is still necessary.

&quot;Lightspeed C&quot; is a trademark of the SYMANTEC Corporation.
