Hello

We are trying to run the flash example ( viewtopic.php?t=11465&highlight=coinitialize ) in a clean 3.93 install but get the message telling that coinitialize_() is not a function, etc.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance.

The CoInitialize function initializes the Component Object Model(COM) library. You must initialize the library before you can call its functions. Applications must call CoInitialize before they make any other COM library calls except the CoGetMalloc function and memory allocation calls.

It's a Win32 API call
