[DUG]: ntdll.dll
Hi, Sorry to bother you with this one - I know it got discussed some time ago already. I had to migrate to a new machine (nt4 server sp6) and now I cannot put the ras component onto a form. It comes up with: access violation at address in module ntdll.dll read of address 00018 I remember there was some simple remedy but I don't know any more what it was. Can anyone point me in the right direction? thanks sigi --- New Zealand Delphi Users group - Delphi List - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Website: http://www.delphi.org.nz To UnSub, send email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body of unsubscribe delphi
RE: [DUG]: Pricing ...
Hi Borland, I see you are working hard towards driving the last customer towards the competition. Prices to me seem to get astronomical. The so called new delphi features in the past were often just 3rd party trial version components which were as in case of mapi absolute useless crap and a wast of library space. We do not need to pay for that I guess. I don't know if these new xml etc. components are ok for commercial use or if they are just another marketing issue. Anyway I will not fork out 5.5k for an UPGRADE. There is a limit to what you can spend each ear on development tools as a single developer. Of course we all should buy (try) kylix as well which takes the borland bill 10k per version??? Do you really think the majority of clients can afford that? Losing 30% of clients will force you to raise the price even further I guess and finally all of us will have to go somewhere else have fun sigi Martin wrote: But this pricing makes Borland's problem mine! In the long run the higher the price, the fewer the developers, and thus the higher the price must go! A very nasty circle. And one that I worry many will soon have to get off. I can see no realistic way for Borland to get out this circle with regard to Delphi. I do hope however that if they decide to abandon the windows development tool market that they will hand Delphi over to the open source community.

Re: [DUG]: web development.
Hi Matt, I can only recomment webhub as I think its absolutely reliable and performs well. It does take a bit to get used to it but that pays back.

Re: [DUG]: FILE of ....
Hi Wilfred, Change your compiler options to use shortstrings by default, or explicitly declare the size of the string, or change the type of the time variable to "shortstring" instead i.e. To change the compiler option does not seem to work, while defining the string size works fine. thanks for your help sigi Sigi Silvia from Nelson Organic Products Site: http://www.BioGrains.co.nz No credit card is required for orders within New Zealand. --- New Zealand Delphi Users group - Delphi List - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Website: http://www.delphi.org.nz

[DUG]: network
Hi,
How can I check if another machine is up except by using file system
e.g. fileexists('\\other_machine\drive\...).
The problem being that by checking on a file on the network the
program seems to wait for the timeout if the other_machine is down
and my program seems to hang.
I need to check this before the bde tries to access a paradox table
on the other machine as otherwise the bde hangs up.
Is there a kind of ping function?
thanks
sigi
