building formats under MikTeX
Hello All: When I run texexec --make to (re)build my formats (under MikTeX), texexec reports that it can't read TEX.POOL and MP.POOL . Then a window's dialog box reports that pdfetex has crapped out. Any any ideas? Thanks and best wishes, Matt

kpsewhich mp.pool
Yes, I have the files, but kpsewhich can't find them unless it's actually run from the directory containing the files! I've updated the databases but that doesn't help either. Also, when I process a tex file, pdfetex can't find/open pdftex.cfg .
Check your path to see if the bin directory of Miktex in on your path.
