Hi Dirk,
I don't speak Dutch, so please excuse my English reply. 

It looks like you have installed Euphoria correctly. 

I also suspect that the program "ccver.exw" is not a part of the 
Euphoria download but is an additional download from the User
Contributions area. That means that it is not supported by RDS,
the makers of Euphoria. 

>From the message you got "doEvents has not been declared" it looks
as if you have downloaded a very old version of Win32lib library. The
current version is located on my web site, which is the only
official site for it, even though a few people are kindly providing
copies of it.

However, may I suggest that you look through the hundreds of demo
programs that come with win32lib first.

I downloaded the CCVER program myself, and it doesn't work with
the newer win32lib library as it uses the deprecated method of 
coding event handlers. I recoded it to use the standard method
and it now works, I think. All the messages are in Bahasa Indonesia
and I only have a limited knowledge of that language too. 

You mention that you are getting errors on "every program". What error
messages are you getting? It would help if we could see some of them.
