Hi James,
first thank you for your help.
1.Has anything at all changed on your computer since it was working before?
Not that I remeber I am pretty sure that nothing specially changed!
2. I remember you saying it only happens the second time.
Yes, as I first tried your program it only works the first time. Even a restart doesn't helped.
3.Using my program, is there a particular website and order of buttons to press that I can try on my machine?
I had choosen the default url: http://www.ni.com.
I only press the "Connect (Auto Update)" Button.
4. Have you ever been able to get it to happen with breakpoints (I think you already said no to this)?
Yes, when I'm going to the code and press F5 than it happend again.
But when I am going step by step with F8 than it worked.
5.If so, where were the breakpoints?
I set the breakpoint at the Statusupdate Case.
At the line: "hr = DS_GetLastMessage (dsHandle, message, 1000);"
6.Can you reproduce it on another computer?
Yes I have another computer running with LabWindows 6.0, there is the same problem.
These two computers are in the same network, and use the same internet connection.
I also reinstalled the LabWindows 6.0 but that hasn't changed anything.
7. I can't reproduce it in CVI 8.1.1 - can you download and install the evaluation version of 8.1.1 and try to reproduce it?
I downloaded this demo and suprise suprise it works. Now I am also not able to reproduce it.
Even when I use the LabWindows 6.0 it works now!????
Okay I think the problem itself is solved, but I am really confused why it happend.
Is there something that the new CVI 8.1 set in the Windows system, that was missing?
Thanks for your help
