Title: ApiGuide
Post by: vmars316 on May 15, 2011, 03:00:12 AM
Greets,
win7
I downloaded the ApiGuide from AllApiNet
but it doesn't run.
Is there a running version around somewhere?
Thanks...vmars316

API-Guide has over 900 functions, all documented,
and explained with an example.

"API-Guide.exe" does have a help file, readme.chm .
In there it lists the Required files:

API-Guide.exe The main executable file
Functions.api This file contains all the function names, descriptions, libraries, examples, related functions, parameters and return values.
Functions.ini Initialization file for functions.api
Examples.api This file contains all the examples for the functions.
Examples.ini Initialization file for examples.api
Dotnet.api This file contains all the dotNET data.
Dotnet.ini Initialization file for the dotNET data.
VB5 runtimes 

and I still get the error msg:
<<Run time error '5':
invalid procedure call or argument>>
So I am baffled.
Here is the download site:
http://allapi.mentalis.org/agnet/appdown.shtml

So I am hoping that someone on masm has used this apiGuide.

Thanks...vmars

OK. so it's not the good ol' hlp format but rather a runtime error.
Have you checked if you have the VB5 runtime (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/180071) installed?

Yes, I have 'VB5 runtime' installed.
