you say you have fuel, you checked and your fuel line is pressurized? (you should have aroud 30-35 psi)
you have sparks?
what you can check is the crankshaft sensor, the MAF, the coil pack, the fuel pump and the ECU.

Most check engine codes are for exhaust/emissions related items. You probably won't get a code if it's just something electrical.

yeah there will be a code for those sensors (MAF, cranshaft and coil), even a code if the ECU is busted (I remember seeing it in a code list). But there will be no codes if the sensor dies and the car won't start again (my crankshaft sensor died, engine stalled and I never got any codes, the car wouldn't run at all so it never registered in the ECU).
