Dumb question time: How can one reliably access functions like sscanf() and friends from a DLL (ie how to get around the problem of DS != SS) Can this be done? I really don't want to re-invent the wheel for my silly little DLL Thanks, Nick -- Nick Pemberton uucp: !{lsuc, uunet!mnetor}!aimed!nick AIM, Inc bus: (416) 429-1085 Toronto, Ontario, Canada Home: (416) 690-0647

The SDK provides libs for this purpose: sdllcaw, sdllcew, etc. Look for the ones that have "dll" in them. --Ken Disclaimer: The above opinions are solely my own.

MS promised (quite a while ago) to substitude all these functions with new
ones. The SS==DS-shortcoming should be past then. Borland already uses another
solution. (Every DLL is linked with CL.LIB automaticly.)
