Well, umm, but a repeat-until is not the same as a while-do loop, the
repeat-until loop always executes once, the while-do one may not execute at
all. Of course, you can jump thru hurdles to simulate the repeat-until loop
with any other loop, just like using a "*flag" and repeated tests to
simulate a "goto".
I was wondering if someone has an example of a win95 dde they can refer me
to or send me. I have 942 files comprising 49Meg in the Eu directory, and
the only references to dde are in a win95 API listing, does anyone have some
*examples* i can see using dde? I did a search on the listserv archives,
lots of people asking questions, but no examples. I'll need to send and
recieve dde, the task is to establish a 2-way connection to mirc. Should i
use the winsock instead? Can anyone give me examples of that in win95 in Eu?
/me is almost begging now....
