Hi,
I am looking for a development solution (not to expensive) and i have a few questions before i will buy it and put my precious time in learning how to use it.

I use a software package called OfficeTalk which has it's own API dll.
I want to make a couple of add-ons for this software.
I can call it from VisualBasic using the following code:
Set app = CreateObject("OfficeTalk.Application")

or

Set app = GetObject(,"OfficeTalk.Application")

when it is already running.
Is this possible in anyway in PureBasic?
And how do i do it?

Also i need to extract and insert data in a Sybase Database.
I have a ODBC connection for the database.
Is that possible?

Thanx

The ODBC is ok, but the object creation is not possible for now in PureBasic, I'm affraid. Better stick with VB for such kind of programs...

That is too bad

I was just starting to like this place ..and PB of course..
Now i need to switch back..

Is there maybe another way to get API fonctions from a dll that is registered in windows?

Thanks for you prompt answer ...
Maybe i'll buy it anyway

Regards and good luck!
