Yeah, let's give him a place in the LOGE

I want to add a GERM to the list. Edit: Wow, this is post #400!

This list gets the PERM out of my hair.

A third way is to use the 'Search' function of explorer to find all .zip files in \Directory, and drag them from the 'Search Results' window to whereever you want.

A WASP is any insect in the order Hymenoptera that is not a bee or an ant.

Is far from bullet-proof. Let's imagine your .reg file adds a key somewhere, but the key already exists. What should the uninstall section do? Or more subtle, it changes a dword value. To change it back you should have stored the old data somewhere.

Can you boot your system from floppie or CD, copy C:\autoexec.bat and C:\config.sys and post the contents here?

Does nobody wonder what is the PITH of this waste of time?

- I should learn to read

I don't think it a virus, only a dos program wich is far from compatible with your hardware. Try to get to the dos prompt. Alt-X, Alt-Q, Ctrl-C Ctrl-X Ctrl-Q could be the key combinations. When on the dos prompt type 'exit' to return to Windows.

Could it be ntoskrnl.exe? On my system (W2000) there is a copy in \System32\dllcache and one in (Windows)\Driver cache. The file in use is in System32.

I'll CITE the list as it's now:

SKIP this word from the list of unused words!

I'm very happy the word Hell had already been used. I'll honestly try not to SPAM anymore.

4GB minus 1 byte, actually. No. W9x internally use a 32 bit filepointer, and so it can't access files beyond the 4GB limit.

That's not a good idea. You'd mess up the XP folders, and maybe XP wouldn't like it. I suppose there is one or more dll's missing, which provide some functionality your program needs. You can try to load your program in Dependency Walker. Maybe it tells you immediately which dll(s) are missing. Maybe you'll have to profile it first. (Menu->Profile). Have a look at the red lines in the logscreen. When a LoadLibrary or a GetProcAddress fails, it should say which dll is involved. Get the dlls from the 98 installation, and put them in the same directory as your executable. It could work now.

FYI: When you Google on a Win32 function, InitCommonControls() in this case, you'll find a hit in msdn2.microsoft.com. On this page you often can find which header and import library you need, commctrl.h and comctl32.lib in this case. So you should have included commctrl.h, making the compiler happy. Next to complain would have been the linker, which cannot resolve this function, so you should have linked comctl32.lib. However, it seems to be not nessesary here. That's according to the documentation which says you'll only need InitCommonControls() when you want to use XP theme's in your rich edit. But on the other hand, it stated you'll only need to call LoadLibrary() to find out which version of rich edit you have, which seems to be untrue.

Meanwhile, the thread DOES have reached post #252

Microsoft says you should call LoadLibrary() to determine which version of RichEdit is available. A side effect could be that the dll is loaded and the class registered. I suppose you mean InitCommonControls()? hRichEdit = CreateWindowEx( 0, "RichEdit", "", WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_HSCROLL | WS_VSCROLL | ES_MULTILINE, 0, 0, 200, 100, hwnd, (HMENU)IDC_MAIN_EDIT, GetModuleHandle(NULL), NULL); I don't think an edit control can have a menu. It should be in the parent frame. I would expect an error though. That doesn't mix.

The declarations are inside RichEdit.h, which you have. It's inside iBLDENV.Exe\WIN32-B.cab. This cab contains libraries too, but no RichEdit.lib. The header doesn't define any functions, so I suppose there isn't any library. The creations fails. You mean CreateWindowEx returns 0? What does GetLastError() return? Yeah. Belgium is famous for it's generous download limits.
