Are you using a string ":" or a char ':'? In CodeWarrior there's an option "PC-Relative Strings" that must be used to make sure that your strings constants are stored in the code segment instead of the data segment. That's what I had to to a while ago because I needed to access a database by hardcoded name in a launch code.
Good luck. Jerome Scott Erickson wrote:
In my app, i have to save a list of SMS msgs. I am simply putting them in a DB with a ":" between each one. This way i can copy it to a string, replace the : with a NULL and have a string ready to send to a list. This ofcourse works fine in my app when the app is running. But there is a 2nd place I do the same thing, and its from a launch code that deals with a SMS msg coming into the device. The problem is that on the DmWrite() call that is putting the ":" in place, it puts some y with dots over it???? if i try a ";" same thing, but if i try anything thing else, like "-" it works fine. Im lost on why this is going on. Ofcourse I can simply change the char that I use to split up the SMS msgs, but Im still amazed at what its doing.
