F-Bus v4.1 VB6 API crash on opensession

[teabreakpoint]

I have an application that uses the Visual Basic (VB6) API to F-BUS.

When the install pack for v4.1 is installed the application crashes on open session.

I have tried the VB example project that is included in v4.1 pack and this does the same, clicking on open produces the Microsoft crash report.

Using the v4.0 pack, this operation works ok.

is it possible that the nifbstd.dll v4.1 has an error inside, or has broken compatibility with previous version? Perhaps that the API has changed and this is not yet updated in the documentation?

Any one else with the same issue?

Hi,

Let me clarify several things with you.

1. for ver 4.1, did you use the existed eample under folder of C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI-FBUS\MS Visual Basic\example?

2. for ver 4.0, the same questions: C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI-FBUS\MS Visual Basic\example?

3. What kind of error message do you get?

I will try to reproduce your problem and see what I could find. Thanks.
