It's not an OCX file that is being 'included' using the manifest, it's the Chilkat ActiveX library DLL, in case that makes a difference. a OCX "is" a DLL Chilkat provided a copy of a manifest for their ActiveX DLL in a blog article about Reg-Free COM, so we knew it was possible to get it working. c...

Re: Manifest - Reg-Free COM for 3rd party DLL
Hi Jimmy It's not an OCX file that is being 'included' using the manifest, it's the Chilkat ActiveX library DLL, in case that makes a difference. I have already added those lines into our applications ARC file to include our manifest as a resource. The initial version of the manifest was only used t...

Re: Manifest - Reg-Free COM for 3rd party DLL
Thanks, Chris. I have seen and read it and thought I had understood the general principles mentioned. But it does not seem to cover the case where you want the manifest to be linked into your EXE as a resource. If you did this with the example given, I presume you would still have to deploy the exte...

Manifest - Reg-Free COM for 3rd party DLL

Re: Text Message Formatting
Bob, We also use a few text messaging services but ours are also all REST API based. As Tom said it does make things easier because you just follow the documentation and supply text using only the formatting they tell you. They then deal with the output via SMS and their developer support is usually...

We use the Chilkat libraries quite extensively for XML, JSON, HTTP and REST as they are very good.
The XML and JSON parts of the library appear to be free. And they make the creation and usage of XML and JSON easy.

Re: How do I find out which ch, dll files are missing?
Open the Alaska and eXpress++ help files and do a search for them...
For example:
DC_WAITON is in the eXpress++ DCLIPX.DLL (as mentioned at bottom of function page)
DISKNAME is in Alaska's XbTools III

Re: Opening xls files
Do a quick search for ShellOpenFile, which was mentioned recently in this board.
It will try to open a file or web url with whatever is the current default application in Windows.
Just pass it the name of your excel file and see what it does...
