Can anyone help with using GM6S32.DLL, I only have the manual for version GM5.7.

What I like is to get the latest API Specifications & Sample PDF file and if anyone can offer advice on its use, sample code etc.

Has anyone used GM6S32.DLL with Visual Foxpro ?

Thanks in advance.
 

API is the same for gm6s32.dll as it is for gm5s32.dll

Theres a few more commands but nothing special.
 
I've used the GMW5S32.DLL and GMW6S32.DLL (pretty much the same) with Visual FoxPro.

The only serious problem I've had is getting the contents of the Name/Value pairs. (Creating and using the NV pairs is no problem, but if you need to get the return values it's a problem.) VFP returns a string of numbers instead of the actual data. These numbers are pointers. After some fiddling, I wrote some functions that allow you to get the actual data to which the pointers point. It's been a while since I used them, but let me know if you are interested and I'll dig them up.
