John, I'm glad you got things working. I saw the FAR PASCAL bit but I was going to go back into BC++ to be sure before humiliating myself publicly. As for your second question, I can help. I need to create a string function for the VBPOINT.DLL that I just uploaded. To accomplish this, you need the CDK. There is a function VBCreateHlStr that creates a VB string and copies a specified number of characters into it from a buffer to supply. This functio returns a "handle" to a VB string and *that* is what you return as your string function. The CDK is pretty cheap but if you don't want to deal with it, you could simply download VBPTR.ZIP and call the function there. You pass the *char and the number of bytes and you would get a LONG back. You would then return this LONG as your function result. Make sense? -=- Jonathan
