SYMPTOMS
When a compiler error occurs, the error message does not include any text.



CAUSE
The C1.ERR and C23.ERR files are not installed in a directory listed in the PATH environment variable. Normally, Setup installs these files into the compiler BIN directory.



RESOLUTION
The required steps vary depending on the compiler you are using.
 * For Microsoft C versions 6.0x, put the Setup Disk in a disk drive, make it the current drive, and type setup /copy at the MS-DOS command prompt. Setup prompts for the name of the file to copy from the distribution disks and the name of the destination directory on your hard disk.
 * For Microsoft C/C++ version 7.0, use the CSETUP.EXE program to copy the files.
 * For Visual C++ version 1.0 and above, locate the files you want to copy on the Visual C++ disks and use the EXPAND.EXE utility to copy and decompress the files.

NOTE: For help with EXPAND.EXE, type EXPAND /? and press  at a command prompt.
