Droopy's lib bug? + question about search

When I run this on my machine:
Code: Select all
MessageRequester("OS Version",OSVersionText())
I just get a blank message box. I'm running Windows XP Pro x64.
And the question:
When I use the Ldb, how can I search for several fields at once?
Lets say I wanna search for Robert Olsen, and not just Robert or Olsen, I have one field named firstname and one called lastname.

with the message box question, is it pb4? if it is, make sure u r using the right lib file for the mode that the program is working in (Unicode/ASCII)
about ldb, i have no idea, i also dont know if it works in unicode mode on pb4.....

No, I'm using 3.94 because I need some libs that aren't available for v4 yet.

for a pb4 version of droopys lib, look at out site (
http://droopyslib.us.to)
if its for pb3.94, then i dont have a clue, try using osversiontext() with the debug command

It just returns NULL.
When I use OSVersion() it returns 65 (#PB_OS_Windows_Server_2003) which isn't correct at all

Works great with XP Pro x32, perhaps it's a XP Pro x64 issue ?

You can't, you can use a code like this :
Code: Select all
For n=1 To LdbCountRecord()
LdbSetPointer(n)
If LdbRead(#FirstName)="Robert" And LdbRead(#LastName)="Olsen"
;/ Match Search !
EndIf
Next

This is the code of OsVersionText
Code: Select all
ProcedureDLL.s OSVersionText()
Select OSVersion()
Case #PB_OS_Windows_NT3_51
retour.s="Windows NT 3.51"
Case #PB_OS_Windows_95
retour.s="Windows 95"
Case #PB_OS_Windows_NT_4
retour.s="Windows NT4"
Case #PB_OS_Windows_98
retour.s="Windows 98"
Case #PB_OS_Windows_ME
retour.s="Windows Me"
Case #PB_OS_Windows_2000
retour.s="Windows 2000"
Case #PB_OS_Windows_XP
retour.s="Windows XP"
Case #PB_OS_Windows_Future
retour.s="Unknown"
EndSelect
ProcedureReturn retour
EndProcedure
It's possible PB 3.94 don't recognize XP x64 ?

Might be right there, don't know, haven't used it for very long.
