Ok, i made a DLL in visual C++ 2003 then I opened the DLL in word pad and copied the decorated function to the string table. now for some reason, DBPro can't find the function name? ANy ideas?

EDIT: Crap..I posted this in the wrong forum.

What does the function prototype look like in your code, and what was the decorated name you got from the DLL?

It might be helpful to see the string table too.

Okey, insted of startin' a new thread I'm just asking here because I got problem with the same thing... Nearly..

1. How do I make a stringtable, where do I put it, etc?

2. How do I get object position etc from DBPro without having like 11 parameters?

I've been around, still doing my mod duties. Apart from a short spell of coding for a friend last week, I haven't had the mental energy to do much.

@Hayer,
1. Which compiler?
2. You can either call the Basic3D plug-ins '?GetXPositionEx@@YAKH@Z' functions, or get the object pointer by calling '?GetObjectA@@YAPAUsObject@@H@Z', and then getting the position from the internal object data.

Well, you create an empty text file and save it in your project directory as an .rc file. Then you rightclick resources (map in project explorer) and add existing item > the .rc file you created.
Then open it by rightclicking it and selecting view code and write the stringtable data in it.

STRINGTABLE
BEGIN
[list]
END
