After the plug-in is compiled, it needs to be placed in the Plug-Ins folder for InDesign to load it. There is also a way to get your plug-ins to load by modifying the PlugInConfig file, but let's start with the Plug-Ins directory first.

Best regards,

The steps that Charles suggested are the normal course of action for this error. Can you verify that the path (should be in the bin directory of the SDK) to your ODFRC compiler is persisting in the "Executable Files" section. You might also need to set this and then restart the compiler to ensure that the evironment will be set up correctly.

Best regards,

Art

Dear Charles Anderson

Many Thanks for the informations and useful guide,

and please help me!

I added the below as you told paths:
"Tools | Options. Go to Projects, then VC++ Directories. In the "Show Directories for" dropdown list, select "Executable Files". Add the directory containing odfrc"...

First I clarify to you... I am using the MicroSoft Visual Studio. NET 2003, using the VC++ compiler...

I am adding the ODFRC file in the executable files, But same error shown in the Output Window. So please give me the solutions.

I am waiting for your solutions.

Thanks & Regards

First you need to find where the odfrc command is installed on your PC. It will be something like C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS2 4.0.2 Products SDK\devtools\bin.

Then, in Visual C++, go into Tools | Options. Go to Projects, then VC++ Directories. In the "Show Directories for" dropdown list, select "Executable Files". Add the directory containing odfrc.

These instructions work for VC++ 7.1. I can't remember the equivalent for VC++ 6, but it'll be something similar.
