Playing with examples

[Elias Montoya]

Im trying to understand the OCX examples. But when i click RUN with Jose's Carousel example, i get a compile time error:

Code Select Expand

Deftype, Type ID (?%?&!#$) or AS required: LISTVIEW_GETCOLUMNWIDTH

Is this a know issue or am i missing an update?

Hi Elias,

did you see this?

The example compiles fine if you have your settings right, but who knows what you're doing? For example, there is not a call to LISTVIEW_GETCOLUMNWIDTH in it, so how can you get that error?

 Rolf, i downloaded before paul updated the link, i just downloaded it, installed it, and problem solved.

Jose, I did nothing strange, just opened your example, and compiled it without editing it whatsoever, in fact i have been using firefly for the past 3 or 4 days and compiled many things without problems. Last night i worked around it by adding a 'pontless' listview to the form. I figured if i did that, firefly would include the required libraries, and it did. I dont know what the problem was either but it's gone with the update that paul posted.

Thanks!

By the way, i was clicking the elements of the carousel and nothing was happening until i made this modification in your example:

Code Select Expand

      ' // Get the identifier of the element that has fired the event
      'strId = ACode$(pElement.Id)
      strId = pElement.Id

Now i get a message box displaying what icon i clicked.

That was an old example for PB9.
