    Help required on using the extension plugin

    Does anyone know how to use the extension plugin (not the base plugin) concept offered with RR.
    I’m trying to make a small plugin to control a servo motor which will be used to tilt my 7” LCD. I have red the FAQ on the pluging but did not understand if I can insert code that monitors the parallel port or if it only ment for defining buttons,indicators and labels ?

    You can ADD any modules/forms/classes to the basic code of the extension plugin. If you already have a working application, simply import the BAS and CLS files from the project into your application then add the necessary code to control your applications from button codes in RR, and add any code to return Labels and indicators from your application.

    on the Class_Initialize event, simply add:

    Load myform
    comhook myform.hwnd

    that procedure is like the sub main of a normal application.
