Can someone please help..

I've got an error in an EXE program running under the TDS product release.

I've attempted to execute the debugger.cex utility, but it always 
comes up with a filer error when it attempts to read the core dump file.
I suspect the reason for this is that there is no dump file in existence.

But when does an EXE core dump? I deliberately created a range error on an
array bound, but still the debugger couldn't read the core dump file.

I have the 'create.debug.info' compiler parameter set, but this doesn't seem to help

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? As my supplier (who remains 
nameless for the present!) will not supply me with the new TDS 
documentation, I shall have to rely on my fellow net-people.

By the way, I've ran the debugger on a transputer network, and it works 
wonderfully!

Any advice desperately appreciated.......

Thanks 

Ian
