Can anybody help me fill in the blanks on the following APIs? These aren't referenced in the VB API viewer (they are part of a larger list and I was able to find some of the declarations at http://www.allapi.net - I think I have removed them). Are the rest of these undocumented APIs or simply...

MasterRacker makes some very good points. The law, because it is a cultural expression of ethical standards, supercedes any individual ethical standard. To report the use of unlicensed software Call 1-800-388-7478 "Technological progress is like an ax in the hands of a pathological...

Philo, do you have a written agreement with Jetico that allows you to continue using the current version of the software? Something other than a read-me file that states the software is (or was) free? A simple "file" would never stand up in court. If you are using software that...

Just a question, zBuilder. If Microsoft decided to turn MASM into freeware, why can't you download it directly from Microsoft.com? Everybody be careful here. "Technological progress is like an ax in the hands of a pathological criminal" Albert Einstein

That isn't so hard if you know the record structure. Here's an example that opens a file with a known structure and searches for an employee named Albert Einstein. It then reports the department he works in and his home phone number. ' $DYNAMIC DEFINT A-Z TYPE RecordStructure EmployeeNumber...

Sorry that I didn't clarify my situation. This is a pure Win98SE network. If I can't release the leases without DHCP Manager, then would it be possible to change the lease periods under win98? CraigL@bc-corp.com

Only if you are certain of the original contents of the partition table. I have watched a tech delete a partition, reboot and recreate the partition using the original specs. The system behaved as if nothing had happened. Fdisk only deals with a handful of bytes in the disk boot sector. As long...

Very quickly: the DB developers call it the Ultimate Beginners Language. It makes it simple to create fancy 3D games and animations with only a few lines of code. Check it at http://www.darkbasic.co.uk/home.html. And here are some additional links.... http://www.dbwebring.homestead.com...

Try dimensioning a public boolean variable at the module level, setting the value of the variable to True in the command button Click event and then testing the value of the variable in the subroutine immediately following a DoEvents command. The DoEvents will have an effect on performance but...

There is a discussion of executable file compression at thread222-25600 (regarding software found at http://www.aspack.com). It might be worth a try if you are worried about somebody decompiling your applications. <a href=mailto:CraigL@bc-corp.com>CraigL@bc-corp.com</a><br>

Using a DLL seems a little unnecessary. Why not just: Public Declare Function ShellExecute Lib &quot;shell32.dll&quot; Alias &quot;ShellExecuteA&quot; (ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal...
