I have the LDB lib working, I havent posted the code as it is not my lib to post & the update I did was based on the source included with the version of LDB for PB 3.92 downloaded from PureArea. This update was also done using PB4.01 which at the time had a bug with the global statement, so I have set the global variables as shared to get it working. The lib works very well so long as you don't try to use the threadsafe option which will then give PB string errors is all.
Does this LDB lib belong to Droopy, if so, I will pm him with the updated code so he can decide what he wishes to do with it.
Regards,
Baldrick

If only out of courtesy, I would suggest that you do contact Droopy for his advice.
Would it be possible to document the changes that you made, or are they too extensive?

I guess Droopy is a point to start, except that the lib I used from purearea was authored by someone called "Patrice" who I have not heard of & has left no contact details.
As for changes, They were only very minor & just general changes in various PB functions which have changed with the advent of Pb4.x.
The only exception to that is that I did this using Pb4.01 which had a known bug with the global statement which has now been fixed, so the global statement should work properly now & the changes I made to shared variables not required. So if you just generally go through the source to update for Pb4.x & then run through the latest version of Tailbite, it is a relatively simple operation.
{ The LDB sources are included with the Purearea download which you will find in your examples directory after initial installation }

Any chance for an update?
I can't get it working on PB 4.02.
When I try to create a new database I get an error about Invalid Memory Access.

Source code is working.
Lib does not.
Tried to use tailbite to make a library
Did not work again.
So i guess i will use the source instead.
