Hi Chuck,

yes the idea is to create an API 16 exe (created by VB4 16 ), connected to a
32 dll made under vb4 32.

but I don't know what for is CNole.exe

can you tell more about it?

Did you know that a product of demo exist to go arround the limit of 64 k?

I had it by the book of Arthur Put, "using easy language"

this Dll save a lot of time and effort
