Just some of the issues when there are replies to spam posts (or embedded spam posts) Threads tend to meander and go off topic. Removing a thread started by a spammer then removes these other posts and some users get peeved. Picking and choosing which posts to remove from a thread can be a begger an...

Perhaps to be safe the help file should just refer to the order page with something like: Pricing details can be found here.

lol. Trivial things sometimes assume non-trivial proportions. :)

Soccer Australia

Australia has the best chance ever of getting through this round of the world cup. I think we can beat Japan and Croatia (both tough matches, for different reasons, but winnable). We have held Brazil to a draw with a lesser team, so we can do it again, and perhaps even beat them. Brazil seems to bui...

be carefull...may be a POBASIC turn the corner... :twisted: :) Interesting development with the asm bit. If it was cross platform maybe Fantasie Software would have been interested (as Fred is already using POLink). Nothing wrong with masm, btw. It is pretty good. So is fasm. Gas is a bit of a begg...

Now that you've explained it - that is clever in at least two ways. :)

I would say that the #MB* and #ID* constants are windows-specific, unless Fred has specifically put them into the other platforms. I am not sure what the linux or mac-os equivalents are. But you could perhaps use your own and "includefile" those constants for the platform, eg: Windows incl...

Hi lexvictory, stripped code below (all checks, progress calls, etc, pulled out leaving, hopefully, only the significant bits and not too messy despite the missing bits).

Hi lexvictory, Thanks for the tip. Can you explain to me how to take the strings I have swimming around in a unicode program and make them UTF8-ed for the API calls? I'm lost with this. I have workarounds but I fear them as I don't understand what is happening and so am not sure I have "fixed&q...

Hi Freak, Thanks for the excellent explanation, it clarified a lot for me. My bad with the ReadData. I now understand my error, I think. What happens is that one program will, from time to time, update (appending to) a file using WriteStringN. Another program accesses the file using something like t...

Hi Phlos,

Perhaps stick with 3.94 for situations where it is best to do so? Think of it as having two languages for the price of one. :) (V3.94 and V4.00).

V4.00 is superior in many ways. However if a conversion is going to be a massive undertaking, then 3.94 is still there.
