It's hard to admit I was wrong, but the answer is in the rhide.html file:

The preffered way of work is to insert the source file into a project.

for example:   RHIDE MYPROJECT  will start rhide with a project
named "myproject".

I still do not understand why working without a project is so problematic:
adding C:\DJGPP\ALLEGRO\EXAMPLES   to the options->directories->sources
dialog box  will still leave RHIDE 'not finding' the source files.

It's also worth mentioning that some of the examples will fail to find
their
data/pcx  files, so I've had to copy those files to the C:\DJGPP directory
to make them work.

BTW  Some of the examples ( EX22.c - "Jet" for example ) cause my PC
display to become
blank, so the reset switch is the only option left..
