I got it to work thanks! (Albeit with the long unit way) And anything that does it is splendid. I did not really go through the code, but I understand that it can do more than just extract a version string... I just don't have a clue what one would use it for, but I'll probably include that...

Towerbase... I couldn't do that... Why is that? o__ ,_.>/ _ (_)_\(_)_______ ..speed is good

I have an about box. Any variable, or something which I can use in the form's create method to set it automatically to the version no from my project options? ie. procedure Aboutbox.FormCreate(sender : TObject); begin Label3.caption := Application.version; end; Well, if there was such a...

Thanks, now I at least know where to start. o__ ,_.>/ _ (_)_\(_)_______ ..speed is good

To my knowledge, this program does not have a great amount of things that happens when it bombs, usual cleanup (if it ever gets there?) because the program is supposed to always be running, the original programmer included quite a lot security code to make it hard for the program to quit. Is...

No, I have no experience with Dr Watson. How do I use it? One thing though, this is the same application that previously was run for weeks on end on a NT 4 machine, and now that it is upgraded (with some other modifications as well) to 2k it is bugging. But please explain Dr Watson to me, I...

Sounds to me as though you need a program such as matlab, maple or the like. Writing even a simple converter is tricky. But check the net, there might be stuff that is downloadable for free (or for a price). You might look at the GSL if it might suit your needs (I think it will) Gnu...

I have a program that is supposed to run infinately. After about a week I get an access violation (not predictable a week). Is there any way that the information from the error report can actually help me to debug it, and if so how? I inherited the code, so I my understanding of the program...

AHHHH! I never knew what TD32 is! (never really bothered to check, but I'll have a look) o__ ,_.>/ _ (_)_\(_)_______ ..speed is good

Hi, I've had a similar problem. I wrote a console application, and it was about 100 lines, and it was quite big. I hoped that using console would reduce the size, but it was still at least 400k if not closer to 800k. For what it does I think about 60k is more than enough size. (I don't...

12-04-2004 23:00:00 // event 1 12-04-2004 23:59:59 // event 2 If I understand correctly, you want to know how to make sure that event 2 shows it's reminder before event 1 starts? What I'd do is in my 'eventsfortoday' list, I'd have my reminders as events too (just hidden). The user sees...

I have a friend who wants to write inside her DBgrid: Accepted (in green) or Rejected (in red) depending on the value. Can you do this without overriding/overwriting the draw procedure? (with defaultdraw on?) Or just, what is the easiest way to do this? Thanks! o__ ,_.>/ _ (_)_\(_)_______...

I dunno how, but I had a tough time debugging, (I had some breakpoints it never reached), so I reloaded the app alone (it used to be loaded with two other projects of similar nature), and then I could change it. I could change both the other projects' icons though. o__ ,_.>/ _...

I had this give me an error in my program today. I had if (FirstRun || NewHalfHour()) DoTargets(); The only thing is, that in NewHalfHour() I have if (FirstRun) initialize stuff; Do What normally happens So my stuff in NewHalfHour never got initialized and gave me access violations in...

Ok, yeah I see that, and that is easy. Lets say I am writing a multimedia app. I want my one big file for my sounds, and my file for my graphics. (I would like to compress it too) How do I know which bitmap etc. I am accessing? Or even worse, what if I want to combine the sound, graphics?
