The Notepad++ file wasn't located C:SierraChart\NPP\Notepad++. I couldn't find it on the hard drive, so I downloaded a different one. Changed the Notepad++ location in build program to C:Downloads\notepad++.exe was located. Placed my Notepad++ text of the study in both ASE_Source and ASC_File and tried to build from either without luck. The most common error is the text was not found after the building. Is there something specisl with the NPP\Notepad++ compared to the one I'm using. If so, can I get a new copy. I'm unsure what else it could be and I would need further help.
Thanks

Sierra Chart no longer sends the Notepad++ program with our software.

If you want to use the Notepad++ software, then downloading it directly from them is fine.

But Notepad++ is just a text editor. We do not understand how you are attempting to build a study. Start at step #9 at the following for the instructions on how to build:
