Hi,
Ok as I said in my previous messages.. One of my forms will not work. This
is very frustrating. When I do the API calls mentioned below the program
crashes the first time I try to use the variable frmP. That is in
FrmGetObjectIndex.. When I step through with the metroworks debugger I end
up looking at a bunch of assembly code. When the program finnaly crashes so
that I can no longer debug, the function call is (0x4 or 0x8 Unknown) and I
can see in the debug window a messages that says "invalid opcode". Now the
code that is causing this works for all other forms, just not this form.
I've looked at all the values of frmP after the FrmGetActiveForm(); call.
Everything seems to be OK. and objectID is also correct. I'm lost here, I
don't know where to start. Maybe someone could just give me a little hint as
to how I could go about attacking this problem? :)
I'm thinking there is something in the forms resource definition that is
screwy.. but I don't see how, b/c I didn't write that.. :)
Thank you,
Philip J. Matheson.
