Delphi doesn't compile the examples for DIO32HS
Some libraries appear to be required,
but there are none supplied
According to the manual, one ActiveX should be sufficient.
What version is the source provided ?

Hello,
Could you give more detail about what you are trying to use? As NI support, we don't provide support on Borland issues with our ActiveX controls, though of course we will support the use of those controls. Maybe someone else on the forum has had direct experience getting Delphi to work.

I have seen that sometimes the latest build update of Borland Delphi will fix some of the ActiveX implementation issues that cause problems.

After trying the Borland updates, if you still are looking for help, try posting back to here with more details about what you are trying to do, and what is going wrong. Also, version information for your NI and Borland software would help.

The NI CD is Version 6.9.2
There are examples : \National Instruments\NI-DAQ\Examples\Delphi

There is no mention which Version of Delphi,
I have 3,5 and 6. However there should be components
to be installed into Delphi as DigitalWaveformContinous
requires TCWNumEdit, TCWDI and so on.
It also requires the units CWUIControlsLib_TLB,
CWAnalysisControlsLib_TLB, CWDAQControlsLib_TLB which are not part of Delphi istself but have to be provided
by NI.

Today I'm going to try Borland C++Builder, of which
I have version 4 and 5. This will also require some
components to be installed in BCB, I couldn't find them
yet.
\National Instruments\NI-DAQ\Examples\BorlandC

BTW: this ActiveX that was talked about couldn't be
found on the drive either. no *.ocx
.

It cannot be that hard. I just want a procedure
to setup the PCI-DIO-32HS, in terms of what is input
and output, how the handshaking is done and then
read/write to the port.

It appears there is no ActiveX but DLL's. Is there
a headerfile available that would allow me to access
this DLL ? Since there are plently of DLL's which
one should I use then ?

The card is the PCI-DIO-32HS.
