Pete It works fine now! I am just starting on the cockpit building trail and I wanted to do some inexpensive "proof of concept" stuff. The first thing I was looking for was a way to eliminate computer intefaces. I was trawling the net trying to find a VB based keyboard emulator with screen buttons when I came across your FSUIPC and WideFS. The button screen is is just what I needed. I am imprressed with its possibilities particularly your sequences, combinations and mixtures button programming facilities in FSUIPC. Now, if I can get WideView to work... Thanks once again Doug

Peter The main client PC is an Athlon XP2100 with an LG L1510SF touch screen @ 1024X768 running Win2K service pack 4. The other client PC is a Toshiba Portege with 10" screen @ 1024X768 running WinXP Pro service pack 2. It makes no difference on either PC whether the screen is resized or maximised - I just get the grey screen. Thanks for your assistance. I have attached a copy of the WideClient.ini and FSUIPC.ini.

Help! I have 2 WideFS clients (version 6.504) - 1 running W2K connecting with IPX/SX and the other XP connecting with TCP/IP. Both clients validly connect to a WideServer (version 6.503) running XP and things like "SendKeyPresses" work fine on both. I entered the [buttonScreen] example from the manual into both WideClient.ini and also the corresponding [buttons] entries in FSUIPC.ini (also from the manual). When I launch WideClient.exe on either client all that appears is the standard grey screen. I know it is probably something simple but can anyone please point me in the right direction to get my "Virtual Buttons" on show?
