HB> A lot of the OWL/PM reference documentation is a straight cut and paste job of the OWL/Windows documentation. Ironically, this results in sample programs that don't compile. Have a look at the (printed) documentation for the programs that demonstrate the basics of TApplication. You'll find that they all reference `WinMain', `hInstance' and `hPrevInstance'. There are no such things in OWL/PM. > JdeBP < ___ X MegaMail 2.10 #0: --- Maximus/2 3.01* Origin: DoNoR/2,Woking UK (44-1483-725167) (2:440/4) SEEN-BY: 50/99 270/101 620/243 625/160 711/401 409 410 413 430 808 809 934 SEEN-BY: 711/955 712/407 515 624 628 713/317 800/1 @PATH: 440/4 141/209 270/101 712/515 711/808 934 |
