SDK - VB6 App

Hi Guino,

I've just tried using the RRSDK VB app to try to remotely exit RR from VB. If I open the code and run the example you give VB closes immediately.

If I comment out:

Code:

Private Sub Form_Load()

    'Prepare to receive messages
    COMHook Me.hwnd

End Sub

or

Private Sub Form_QueryUnload(Cancel As Integer, UnloadMode As Integer)

    'Unhook message API
    COMUnhook Me.hwnd

End Sub

It will run ok, but obviously nothing will work, any ideas?? Have tried both with and without RR running, I'm running VB6 SP6.

Thanks

You can't make window hooks and don't restore them while IN the message.. or it will crash.. there's a timer in RR just to close it when a "QUIT" message comes it.. I don't recommend testing any hooks in VB's IDE, because if you have to stop your application VB will Freeze/Close.

Ah k, never thought of that, I found out my problem anyway, it was a DoLog command that always made it crash, even when compiled.
