Hi folks, As usual the last error is the one I can't fix (yet). The error is caused in Startup.vb, line 258 (unconverted code): g_ltimerID = SetTimer(0, 0,...
... To be completely honest, neither did I. ... Absolutely I was not cheering its demise (or anything else for that matter)!!! Those days were certainly more...
Robin, The app object was simple, but I'm sure the function it provided can be done simply in VB2005 (albeit with a lot of typing of object qualifiers). I just...
PS - the code I posted is scratch-it on whiteboard quality. There's no unit test, it's not production quality, and it won't pass FxCop and NDepend et al....
Robin -- You have one more hurdle to jump: making the new POTH act as a hub for Dome and Telescope. That is the notorious ".NET singleton" problem that has...
... Course not Bob! Grateful for your patience and dogged persistence for all these years. Got my bow (guns are too noisy) ready just in case though <VBG>. ...

... FYI I didn't mention any potential solutions to the singleton problem in my previous message on purpose. Since you're "starting fresh" I didn't want to ...

Hello, A bit OT. I just readed on web about Bob's ACP5 and have a question about autoguide. There's a few nights with full Moon when number of stars decreasing...
Not having any luck finding resources that pertain to these components and getting them to communicate between each other. 1st question: I have a Serial to...
No, because not all drivers/applications use the registry today, and that situation is going to become more prevalent now that Vista prevents writing to HKLM....
... For Gemini questions, check the Gemini_Users Yahoo group For SkyTools questions, check the skytools Yahoo group ... Yes ... It might be better to ask on...
I agree with part of Bob's statement - the last paragraph about trying to maintain maximum compatibility I am in total agreement with. But not at the expense...
Thanks Peter, I posted similar pleas on both of the list you suggested. So far, you are the first responder and I appreciate it. Best Regards, Doug Askew ...
Robin, that is my code and is not officially part of ASCOM - it was a first cut of some ideas I was working on at the time that I hoped would make it easier...
... Yep, we've run afoul of that. It can screw up application installers, for one thing. If the installer needs to put some settings in there, and you need...
... Tim, in the case of Vista couldn't you just create a new user login for each system configuration and solve the problem? Then for XP... The drivers that...
I thought the installer ran with elevated privilege and therefore could write to HKLM - at least, Windows Installer (MSI) does. So, in theory, installing...
If you have a Level 3 EPROM, the Gemini Driver that is part of the ASCOM 4.1 platform should work for you. If you have installed the newer driver that is for...
... Yes, but then Windows may put things in "their own special place" under HKLM because it's on a different login account. So you install two programs under ...
Hi All, The Astronomical image processing software that I've been working on is now available at: www.PrimaryImageSoftware.com It currently uses ASCOM only for...
Hi Pete, I did uninstall the Gemini for Level 4 so I will uninstall Ascom 4.1 then reinstall it. Thanks once again for suggestion. Best Regards, Doug Askew ...
Yes but the point is, READING from HKLM is still allowed, otherwise nothing would be able to access its configuration. Only WRITES are virtualized. So...
... Tim, I'm not sure how you figure this? There are software development tools available today (including VS2005) that one can use to develop ASCOM drivers ...
