Tyler:
Any code that is written for win32lib can be made to
work with w32engin.ew. The idea behind the engine is
to give an advance user the capability to extend or
add to the engine any capabiltiy that is needed. You
are not restricted because the engine does not require
you to be confined by the internal design of the
library. You can always add features. If I get some time
next week I'll see what I can do to add the eucom capability
to the library if matt doesn't mind. Right now I'am working
on a project with the Euphoria source code.

I downloaded eucom from the contrib. web site.
I tried running comtest using the win32lib and it
crashs with a message that activex.ew reports an
error at line 685 value of zero reading from a sequence
of a length of zero.
I could not read the eucom.chm ( the help file ) because it
crashes.
I tried running tbrowse.exw and it say's that tlbinf32.ew
is missing.
I am running eu2.3 win32lib 55 and 71 and ie5.5
If the programs won't work with win32lib.ew they won't work
with anybody elses libraries.
The first version of eucom did originally work so
I don't know why it no longer works; so I guess you
will have to get someone else to help you.

I don't mind at all, although you might want to wait until I can get you an
updated version. I think its pretty stable now. I'm mainly working on
documentation and an extensive demo (squashing bugs along the way, of
course). I'll try to put something on my web page this week.

You have to register the ocx and download a clean zip file from matt's
website

Tyler:
What version of win32lib are you using ? I've tried using
the win32lib that I have to run tbrowser.exw and the
function convPctToPixel is not global and some constants
that are used are missing.
I think that matt has patched his library and not used
the standard win32lib.ew.

Unfortunately, you are correct, although I'll try to get my current code up
tonight or tomorrow, and it *will* be compatible with win32lib.57. I'll
make sure all the files are there, too. :(
Derek, would it be possible to globalize convPctToPixel for the next
release?

Thanks Matt,
Also on my system the euCOM.chm will not run unless it is
run from the desktop ?
I would suggest that you use a regular htm help file.

That's my plan, although you'll probably get plain text at first. I was
going to have the chm file pop up context sensitive help from within
TBrowse, but I think that'll be too much of a pain, plus a lot of people
have trouble with it.
