SYMPTOMS

When you are creating a silent build of a DHTML application, you get a dialog box that prompts you for the BuildFile. The .htm file from your DHTML application is not included in the package of the Package and Deployment Wizard by default.

CAUSE

No value is entered in the BuildFile property of your DHTML application.

RESOLUTION

By default, the BuildFile property is set to the value of the SourceFile property. The SourceFile Property is null if you select "Save HTML inside the VB Project" in the .DHTMLPage Properties dialog box. As a result, the BuildFile property is null by default. You need to select "Save HTML in an external file" in the .DHTMLPage Properties dialog box to set the SourceFile Property, which sets the BuildFile property. Make sure you set the BuildFile property, and always enter a fully qualified path.

NOTE: You want to store your page as an external .html file. The DHTML Page designer has some editing limitations. If you do not store your page as an external .html file, you will not be able to use an external editor on this page.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
