Sirs, Perhaps I am a bit premature in bringing this up, but I have been trying to use Visual Basic in NT. I haven't seen any other messages here regarding VB in NT and wonder if there are any other known problems. I have tried using the winapi in an attempt to read the win.ini file (GetProfileString), and all that is returned is an empty string. I suspect that this will require a different vbrun***.dll. My questions: 1. Is there someway to currently access the win.ini file from visual basic running under NT? 2. If not, will a modified vbrun***.dll (or for that matter Visual Basic product) be released specifically for NT? 3. What other problems might be expected from VB running under NT?
