Title: Newbie question
Hi,

I am a newbie, familiar with apple script but no other programing skills. I would like to learn how to do script based applications in X-Code, which I installed recently.

While trying to build any of the examples (i.e. the currency converter ) I get the message:
"Couldn't run '/usr/bin/osacompile' because it does not refer to an accessible executable."

Going through the archives of xcode-users I found a case in which following quotes appeared:

"I imagine that Xcode has no real PATH so it doesn't know where it is. That's why you always see /usr/bin/gcc-3.3 whenever it tries to compile something."

"It's a new feature, from the 1.1 release notes:
The native build system looks at the CC and CPLUSPLUS flags when determining the path of the compiler for C/Objective-C and C++/Objective-C++ files, respectively. It also looks at LD and LDPLUSPLUS when linking. If any of these build settings are defined, they override the compiler and linker paths that would otherwise have been chosen. This is done for compatibility with Project Builder and with common makefiles."

This does not help me in solving my problem.
What do I have to do in order to be able to successfully build the example projects that came with XCode?
Sorry for the really low level of expertise, but everyone had to start once from small... and thanks for Your kind attention :-)

Conrad
