Judith, I installed your IDE for Windows and ran into a small problem. I tried to add the win32lib html docs to the help screen dialog and when I click on save, my XP based PC goes to 100% CPU usage and when I try to quit the program, it says not responding. I was also able to compile your program to C which ended up to be a 8 meg program. Thanks again for this outstanding contribution ! John

Were you trying to add the Win32lib help docs to the "Documentation Location" in Configurations? If so click the "Find Files" button next to the editbox for win32lib, navigate to the folder containing Win32lib, open the Docs folder and select index.htm. On my system the result will look something like this C:\Win32lib\Docs\index.htm If you were trying to do something else, please give me more information. judith

Judith, I was trying to add "Win32LibManual.HTM" to the last input box on the configuration help tab. I tried adding the index.html in the docs directory and I'm having the same problem. (compile and interpretive versions) John

Which version of IDE are you using? I just tested with v1.0.3a and entered the path+Win32libManual.htm and saved OK. Take a look at your ide.cfg file, in IDE's Files folder, with Notepad and search for "Win32libDocs. You should see something like {"Win32libDocs","path and name of win32lib docs"}. Do you see that? If you do then something else is causing the hangup and we can persue that. judith

I went into the help file assignment tab and clicked save without touching anything else and the same problem persists. John

The default, minimal, configurations file will load when you start IDE. Then attempt to save configurations again. judith

Using Win32lib v0.70.3 with IDE hangs trying to access data from a ListView in Configurations. I have been testing Chris's next release which works fine with IDE. I just now realised we were more than likely using different win32libs. I'm sorry it took me so long to find the problem. You might contact Chris for a patch if updating configurations is critical for you. judith

lrc = sendMessage(id, LVM_GETITEM, 0, lvitem)
Right after this line, add:
if w32buffer_address(lvitem,LVITEM_pszText)=#FFFFFFFF then lrc=0 end if
and the text retrieval that was running forever will work right again. CChris
