Re: I need a workaround for a DIR problem
Where would I find findfirstfile/findnextfile ? And yes it could be a Unicode character mixed in with the filename. I got this file from a friend in Europe and English is not his first language. I looked at the characters in the filename and it was an embedded zero byte in the middle of the filename.

I need a workaround for a DIR problem
I have started to get a bunch of files from a program that gets them from the internet whose filename I want to change to match my naming system. Numerous files have weird characters for example a zero byte in the middle of the filename. It seems that Windows 10 (Up to date) allows this other progra...

Re: Question on internal workings of Allocate
Sorry, I meant Deallocate not Delete. I am just wondering since when you call Deallocate, you only indicate the start of the block of memory to return to the system. I figured the system would need to know the amount of memory to return so it must be stored somewhere. Therefore subsequent to the All...

Question on internal workings of Allocate
When I call Allocate like dim as any ptr p = Allocate(some value) The system must store the requested amount and/or the amount allocated to this area. This would be required for Delete p To work properly. My question is whether I can get access to this value(s), for reading purposes only. If so how ...

Re: __FB_ARG_LEFTOF__ error
Just an observation. I can understand in the case of the example for __FB_ARG+LEFTOF__ the use of 'verses', you would want the situation that 'verses' is bounded by spaces so that some variable that contains 'verses' is not accidentally matched. That is true for any separator containing alphanumeric...

Re: my personal site dedicated to chatbots
I am currently looking into doing a project using a chatbot. Saw your old entry and tried it. Sadly nothing exists anymore. Is there a new site or somewhere I could get the information talked about here?
