Hi Guys, Thanks for taking the time to read my post. I was wondering if anyone could help me with Juddering/Loading when using TMediaPlayer? I have 6, 45-second videos (in .avi format, from a webcam) of an engineering experiment I did. I have written a simple application that will show me...

Thanks for the Reply DJangMan! I am looking to remove the Excel aspect of it all together, rather than Excel doing the work. I feel that is slowing the process down somewhat! What method would Excel use to get this information? Is it COM based? many thanks, Kay "I won't say that its...

Hi All, thanks for taking the time to read the post. My question is related to optomising an ADO connection. At present, I retrive live data into my Delphi Application from an Excel spreadsheet(this is updated in Excel using the 'RTD' function). This means that I have to open Excel, open a...

Thanks for your post DJangman, If i'm honest, I don't know what i need!! But that sound great to access it myself. the company who supply the information i'm trying to access say that their API's are accessable by 'any language that supports COM automation'. I was looking for a work around...

To close this Thread out - I got it fixed. I have no idea how but I went and found every single Borland/Delphi/Embarcadero/.pas/.dprodj file on my whole system, including in hidden folders and in the windows registry and deleted it. Then I did a full-fat defrag, wiped free disk space and...

Hi Guys, Thanks for reading the post. I have a peice of code which is written in Visual Basic, and in short, it makes a connection to a server and populates a VB 'Grid' with the data i've requested. What I would like to do is to adjust the code so it populates an array of double with the...

Hi All, A little problem with Delphi RAD Studio 2010 that is killing me at the moment - My code insight isn't working at all! I have been into Tools>Options>Environment Options> Editor Options>Code Insight and made sure that all the boxes in there are checked, with Source File Type as Pascal...

Thanks for that DjangMan, thats really great. Am i correct in thinking that you populate a OLEVarient with the information (in my case that would be an array of doubles), then when you use; ComObject.Compose(va) that converts the OLEVarient into a PSafeArray? thanks, Kay

Hi All, thanks for reading the post. In my latest project, I'm trying to access a Method in a type library that requires a PSafeArray as one of its arguments (via COM interface). Thus far, I have loaded a text file into an Array of doubles but now I am unable to pass it to the method. the...

Thanks for the post TonHu, This had crossed my mind, can you program using both languages? Which did you learn first and How did you find the transition from one to another?

Cheers for that DjangMan, thats awesome stuff. I'm slowly getting the hand of where i'm going with it and it looks like I will stick with COM. Delphi for .Net looks a little too much for me. thanks, kay

Hi All, thanks for reading the post. I was wondering if anyone could help me with some advice on .NET and COM communications in Delphi. I have downloaded a free component pack and have the option to communicate with the Methods in the Type Library via .NET or COM. As a very basic...

Great call whosrdaddy, this is exactly what I was looking for. If I have to pay for them thats fine. Thanks to each for your help.

Thanks ssgaunt, at least there is something out there!! Any clue as to where I might find it? cheers, Kay

Hi All, Thanks for taking the time to read my Post. In short I’m looking for some recommendations to update the look of my (very basic) Delphi applications to something a bit more iPod-ish? I was thinking things like cool gradients for TImage's,'shiney' TButtons, fill colours that are...

Hi All, Thanks for reading the post. Here is my problem, I have loaded a Text File into a Dynamic Array using one form (TForm1), but then can not read the same array from another form (TForm2). So what I have at the moment at runtime is the main form opens (TForm2), I can then click to open...

Thanks guys, i'd be stuck dead without you lot!! I've been trying to build up the code segment by segment to try and find the error but this has helped loads. If I want to put the array into a TMemo (assuming that I add this into a VCL application), the compile error says "incopatible types...

Hi Daddy, yeah sure, i've got; //////////////////////////////////////////// / Txt File to Dyn Array Prog / //////////////////////////////////////////// programme Project1 {$APPTYPE CONSOLE} Uses SysUtils; Var MyFile : Text lines : array of string; cnt: Integer...
