    bold Where is $(BCB) stored

    I run Builder 1 and Builder 5 on the same computer. Sometimes they seem to get confused over $(BCB) as it means different things to each of them. I want to rename the BCBs to BCB1 and BCB5. If ignorance is bliss then stupidity is an asset not a liability.

    TOpenGL Library help needed

    Have a look at the free software at http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Hills/6131/ and see if you are interested. Unfortunately this great software has a few bugs. I am only an average programmer, but I am willing to try and sort it out if I can get some of you to collaborate and work on it...

    How to initialize a struct

    To fill all 100 structures with zeroes use memset(MyData,0,(100 * sizeof(Person)); Note MyData when used without [] is already a pointer to the start of the 100 structure array in memory. You don't need to mess around with it. If ignorance is bliss then stupidity is an asset not a liability.

    Connecting USB or PS/2 mouse to serial DB9

    USB is the way of the future. Your best bet is to install a USB card and then use a USB optical mouse. Alternatively your motherboard may have PS-2 support that was not brought out to a connector on the back of your computer. Check the manual for your mobo to see if this is the case. If...

    How can I make C Builder remember its screen layout settings. Everytime I restart a project I find the screen layout I had before has been reset to default settings. If ignorance is bliss then stupidity is an asset not a liability.

    PCI Simple Communication Controller error trying to load Modem Driver

    I had similar problems with my modem. As a last resort I reinstalled XP and it then recognised my modem driver. Before that XP responded with an "invalid Data" message. In the end due to other problems with XP,I threw out it altogether and reverted to Win 2k pro. As it is at present, I...

    Need driver for modem CONEXANT RS56K SP-PCI R6793-11

    Nothing wrong with the conexant modem that getting the correct driver from the original manufacturer won't fix. First get the correct model number by inspecting the board and writing down the FCC id number. Then go to the Puretek Taiwan web site and download the correct driver. Puretek is the...

    Take a look at http://www.analogx.com This is a free zapper which you can use in the meantime. Also The Mozilla browser has this feature and I believe the source code is available though I think it is written in Perl. Regards from Bluewater on the Great Barrier Reef.

    slow starting builder

    If your processor is slow, try eliminating any un-needed programs that are running in the background. My BCB5 loads in less than 2 seconds, but then I am using a fast motherboard and hardware. Also Win98 is a bit slow and Win2k loads and runs faster. What hardware and OS are you using? Maybe we...
