Armin, thank you for your post, but just typing see Tom's answer from
yesterday doesn't help me. I have looked at the MSDN site on the subject and
many other sites to try to figure this out, but i'm at a stand still. I post
messages on this newsgroup because of the great feedback that most
developers provide and assist with, I use it in moderation. I also like to
provide answers if i have them like the web.config problem in asp.net that i
assisted many developers fix. I would please ask you to not post quick
replies unless they actually help someone.
thank you
Vincent
PS: For all I still have a problem with Named Pipes.
this is what i have so far
private declare function CreateNamePipe lib "kernel32" (byval lpName as
string, byval dwOpenMode as object, byval dwPipeMode as object, byval
nMaxInstances as integer, byval nOutBufferSize as integer, byval
nInBufferSize as integer, byval nDefaultTimeOut as integer, byval
LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES as object) as long
is this even the route i should be going.
thank you for all your help
Vince
