Neal Bridges)
It lists common OS3.x errors in decimal, hex and English!
Why bother searching boring .h files
get it now for the low price of $free

Subject: Database problems????
> Hello,
>
> I have 2 popuplists on a form. The first list is filled from a database
> containing the list items. When a user selects an item the program should
> open a database that has the same name as the list item selected (this is
> working fine). Then it
> should fill the second popuplist with everything in the database (this is
>not
> working). The
> problem that i am having is opening the database with the name from the
> list. According to the SDK DmFindDatabase needs the card number and a
> character
> pointer. The card number is 0, and the CharPtr is retrieved from the list.
> If i display the CharPtr in a messagebox it displays the correct selection
> (ie.. the name of the database),
> but for some reason DmFindDatabase does not like it. If we hard code the
> database name into DmFindDatase it finds it and returns an ID. Also,
> DmFinddatabase will return a 0 if it could not open the database.
>DmGetLastErr
