Please try replacing approx ten lines at the start of eacons.ew:

function GetLastError()
	return c_func(xGetLastError,{})
end function

integer initC, inUse
		initC=0

procedure Ferror(sequence msg)
	void = messageBox("Error",
	sprintf("%s failed [%d]",{msg,GetLastError()}),0)
	inUse=0
end procedure

Obviously, it will still fail, but maybe give a hint this time.

Thanks,
Pete
