PGWARE, i keep getting an error when using the latest version of the vdsobj02.dll (error 26) in VDS5.

When i am trying to run the following line:

OBJECT ADD,GRAPHIC,IMAGE1,175,18,196,40,RECEIVE.gif

I have added the following:

external @path(%0)vdsobj02.dll,demo
#define command,OBJECT
#define function,OBJECT
DIALOG CREATE,TEST,-1,0,640,480,CLASS AllElement
OBJECT CLASS,AllElement
OBJECT ADD,GRAPHIC,IMAGE1,175,18,196,40,RECEIVE.gif
dialog show

I keep getting a arithmetic error !

I think almost all PGWARE dll get wierd errors on VDS 5. Especially math errors when actually no maths is done by dll ! Probably this needs some fix / update by PGWARE if it has to be fixed. I found that SURFX dll works well with vds 5 - with small workarounds.

You need to check your system for older copies of the dll and remove these, those older versions of the dll are not compatible with vds 5. Search for vdsobj02.dll and remove them from your computer and use the new version found here at vdsworld.com.

codescript exactly which dll's are you having problems with? I've updated all dll's to fix these problems last week with vds 5/dll's so I'd like to know the errors your getting and which dll's. Btw surfx is not one of my dll's.

If U insert multiple instances of SURFX windows and give surfx setpos command such that the larger surfx window gets smaller and smaller oocupies that space on the dialog then - If the initial size contains a number like 325 and resized number is 45 it gives 101 - same old error as other vds dlls. Now to prevent that I used 045. Now the headache is for a value 45 at the beginning how to make it 3 digits?
I dont remeber what exactly i did - I think I added a "|" character before the number this causes the surfx to shift a little but works -- why ? I dont know.
I think the problem is realted to some kind of parsing occuring in the vdsrun50 dll may type of variable etc but I dont know beyond this.

Thanks CodeScript Wink

Anyway my extensions will soon be updated to work, well possibly, with VDS 5.

Very Happy
