Title: NETWEBEND
Post by: MrTAToad on 2010-Mar-07
NETWEBEND is behaving rather strangely - with a small project, it works okay, but with a large one it doesn't do anything... :S

This is on Windows...

Unfortunately no - it certainly ends the program, but thats about it.

I need to check to see whether it works it XP - could be another Windows 7 problem :)

Yes, works on XP - so it seems to be a Windows 7 problem...

Apparently (assuming you are using ShellExecute on Windows machines, it appears that it will fail on Windows 7 unless you stick the routine in a seperate thread) :
