It gives me an error to the effect saying it cannot find the entry point in the DLL.

This API function would have to except an integer addrress as the source and character string as the destination. I tried using the Win32API function lstrcpyn with no success. It did not give me an error, but the destination string contained garbage.

Timothy,

Oops, I had that backwards, try:

DECLARE INTEGER lstrcpy IN Win32API;
STRING @lpString1, INTEGER lpString2

The other way copies the buffer to the string address. Sorry.

Vlad, to answer your question, the string pointed to (lpstring2) should be NULL terminated. In other words, CHR(0) will be the last character copied.
