Is it BWCC.DLL? If so how do I get it loaded. >I can't find anything in the docs. Some additional information garnered after more testing. If I add bwcc.lib to the .prj file and relink, my dialog box comes up fine. If I don't have bwcc.lib in the .prj, my dialog box will not come up but I get an error -5. No other changes to the program itself. Both cases link without errors. BTW, the file BWCC.DLL is in the directory SYSTEM under the WINDOWS directory along with many other DLL files. -- Mark DiVecchio, Silogic Systems, 619-549-9841 K3FWT ----- 9888 Carroll Center Road, Suite 113, San Diego, CA 92126 ----- markd@silogic.uucp BBS 619-549-3927 ...!ucsd!sdcrsi!silogic!markd sdcrsi!silogic!markd@ucsd.edu
