    editing text resource and nt problems

    Regarding your text resources, I'm not sure exactly where they go in the EXE but if the location is not at the end of the EXE file then I doubt that you can just go in modify them. Modifying them externally may require you to change offset values in the load tables at the start of the EXE...

    Passing Array to Delphi DLL from Excel?

    It sounds like a memory problem. The following notes are directly out of Delphi's help and may be of assistance to you. "On Windows, if a DLL exports routines that pass long strings or dynamic arrays as parameters or function results (whether directly or nested in records or objects)...

    Repositioning cursor in a text file

    You can't do what you want with a text file. The functions that you need are Seek, GetSize and GetPos and these are available with TFileStream and also the Delphi file functions that work with a handle. Roger Fedyk

    Writeln causing memory leak

    I've also experienced similar problems. EarlRainer's approach works very well because it uses a buffer and does not do any string allocation in the subroutine. I think that you will find that your creeping memory problem would also go away if you put SLine:=''; SFileName:=''; at the end...

    HOWTO store a para in the string?

    Hi San, I know it seems like a simple question but you've actually opened up a "can'o'worms". Firstly, what defines a paragraph? Common usage, that is what we visually know as a paragraph, comes from our usage of manual typewriters. In this case, a paragraph referred to a block of...

    Getting the DNS server address

    Not a direct answer to your question but Delphi 4,5,6 & 7 Standard Edition have been free give aways in a number of PC magazines both in Australia and the UK over the last 12-24 months. If nothing else, it will give you access to Indy. Contact the publishers of PC Plus in the UK to see what...

    Information on PDF Index Format?

    PDF files that have been indexed create a .PDX file which is just the starting point in the indexing info chain. The real info is held in the .DDD and .DID files that are saved in the "parts" subdirectory. I have a project which would work much better if I could read those files...

    Wierd stuff hapenning

    I have inherited a FoxPro program that has been working fine. However, it has now developed a strange behaviour. It does not update some crucial fields in a temporary table. This is the code fragment select mth && table alias go top sum val(bnf) to tbnf && sum the BENEFIT AMOUNT fields...

    Dot Matrix print question

    Try using TPrintDialog to actually select the active printer first and then use the synatx that is in Delphi Help for AssignPRN. This should work. Roger
