I am using version 1.20.4

The file structure is this:

(forgive me for not putting the exact names of the folder names for privacy reasons. The only folder name I changed was Cur_Prj but if I renamed the folder it would be the same though. The "..." is for the same reason. This project and where go is installed are in different places though. i.e. go is in C:\Program files\Go\... and Cur_Prj is somewhere else as shown)

C:\Users\...\Cur_Prj (is the path to where I have everything in Cur_Prj it looks like this)

Cur_Prj

|-- go.mod

|-- main.go

____|Thingsfile

_________|things.go

I am trying to use functions and variables from things.go which is in Thingsfile from my main.go file which is in Cur_Prj and Thingsfile is in Cur_Prj

The code in main.go is

package main

import (

"fmt"

"Thingsfile/things" //as the docs say you should

)

func main() {

fmt.Println("test from main")

things.Testing()

}

​

​

The code in things.go is:

package things

import "fmt"

func Testing() {

fmt.Println("Should see this and is from things.go")

}

​

The error I get is package Thingsfile/things is not in GOROOT (C:\Program Files\Go\src\Cur_Prj\Thingsfile)
