I compiled a custom study. The build was successful and the dll file shows in the Data folder but it does not show up in Analysis. I have done the Release dll and then allow load dll but it still doesn't show up under Analysis and restarted SC. I have done this multiple times with no success. Current version of SC. What's wrong ? thanks. |

An additional bit of information: When I go to Open Custom DLL it goes to the ACS folder and not the Data folder. I have the Data folder selected under Paths so I don't understand why it is going to the ACS folder. When I change folders from ACS to Data, it shows nothing even with a Refresh. |

Analysis? Custom studies show up under Analysis >> Studies, or F6, then Add Custom Study

I know that. I've only been using SC for 15 years or so... |

build executed ok and put the dll into the Data folder. In windows explorer I can see the file in the Data folder. SC doesn't see it and it looks at the ACS folder when I go to open custom dll even after verifying the path in General Settings. |
