UIPC_Hello - access error!

[aerotexas]

I'm getting an error message when I run the UIPCHello program.

FSUIPC Access Error!

One or more programs you are using is not accredited for access to an unregistered copy of FSUIPC. Please see FSUIPC.LOG for details.

I'm assuming that the UIPCHello prgram needs a key, yet when I rename UIPCHello.exe to atavs.exe (which is registered for use with FSUIPC) I get the same error.

There are no error messages when I run the original atavs.exe

Well, there are about 6 or 7 different such programs in the SDK. I only did the one in the C package, and that does have a key and auto-registers itself, as shown by this part of the source code, also provided:

// Now to auto-Register with FSUIPC, to save the user of an Unregistered FSUIPC
// having to Register UIPCHello for us:
static char chOurKey[] = "IKB3BI67TCHE"; // As obtained from Pete Dowson
if (FSUIPC_Write(0x8001, 12, chOurKey, &dwResult))
FSUIPC_Process(&dwResult); // Process the request(s)

Perhaps you were running one of the others? You can easily modify them to suit, the source is provided. I can only really support the C part of it.

yet when I rename UIPCHello.exe to atavs.exe (which is registered for use with FSUIPC) I get the same error.

Keys are not solely related to program names, as you will see if you read the Access registration document, also in the SDK. Also, peruse the freeware keys list above.

Pete

Thanks, Pete - you're right as I used the VB SDK...I'll give it a try. Thanks again.
