Thanks very much. Yes you are dead right. I don't know how that line got in there. I must have had a mental breakdown. The only thing I remember having there on older versions was a line pointing to user components. The men in white coats will be coming for me the way I'm going Thanks for your help ...

The other file

With FC9 this compiles to Hex fine but with FC10 or FC11 I get the error.
I'm sure I'm doing something stupid
Thanks

I was trying to use the Auto Version ID but it seems to cause an error in version 11. I expect its me doing something wrong. You can add the component but as soon as you try to use one of items like get build number it causes a compile error. Compile to C is ok but compile to Hex causes this error. ...

I asked copilot to make up a new pico_prog.bat file and it came up with the following and it worked. Its all a mystery to me. But it worked somehow. REM DIR: FCD\PICO\batch\pico_prog.bat @echo off setlocal :: Get the .uf2 file path from arguments set "object=%~1%~2.uf2" set "vName=%3&...

Sorry I expect this has been asked often before. Once Flowcode has made the .uf2 file, are you just supposed to drop it into the pico window that appears when its plugged in. Everything works fine if I do that, it runs the program ok. But I've seen talk about com ports. But I've had a port appear, e...

Thanks for the reply The BBC News component used to work really nicely, but it stopped one day and I could never make it work again. The BBC Weather component though works fine. I just thought I might try that one to see if it had any life in it. But I don’t think my latest license is valid to turn ...

I happened to come across this source code on on the wiki page, but I can see it as a component anywhere. Sorry if this has been asked about before, I did have a search but didn't find much. Why is it not saved as a component I wonder. Thanks Mark Second try, think I attached the wrong file last time
