URGENT! QTP creates datafile (.sf) but not dictionary file (.sfd)

[Joe Boyle]

Actually Syed, I suggested that you look in all directories for subfile
components which may have been left behind, and which might be blocking
attempts to create a new subfile.

To find these components I suggested the command‘dir c:\CW975SF7*.* /s’. The
objective is to delete any files of this name before recompiling, and then
running your qtp again.

I also suggested changing the C to any other drives you might have (and I
see that this has confused the issue) I had in mind the following ‘dir
D:\CW975SF7*.* /s’ or ‘dir U:\CW975SF7*.* /s’, rather than your
interpretation which is to use c:\XW975SF7 instead :)


Regards, Joe.

Dear Joe, Robert,
 
I posted a reply which unfortunately has not reached.
 
I tried to change the name (as guided by Joe) and it worked.
I was executing the qtp from a command prompt. So there was no chance of any
code executing after the completion of this qtp.
 
I appreciate your help.
Best regards,
SYED

I think the problem may be code OUTSIDE of QTP.  The
comment at the end of the code says the subfile is 
purged at the end of the job.  It could be that the
.sfd file is successfully purged but for some reason
(e.g. file being open) the .sf file is NOT being
deleted.

Look at the job logic rather than the QTP code for the 
answer.
