CompuServe Messages

Bruce, Thanks for your kind words! I'll leave you a private message showing you how the call is set up. The routine does not have the feature you describe. Please keep in mind that this routine was written by Microsoft (not us) – we've provided a "wrapper" around the routine so you can get the full functionality that was intended. For this routine in particular, that means being able to pop up a help screen when the user clicks the help button. (We also set things up so you don't need to worry about pointers!) Having said that, it's a simple matter for you to check the extension when the routine returns. One of the values we pass back to you is exactly where in the file name the extension begins. If the user types one that you don't want, simply MsgBox him and recall the routine! Mark There is 1 Reply.
