Hmm, spirit.ocx off topic ??
I don't think this is off topic. They offer it with the following words
(from pbrick.pdf) :
" .... This technical reference guide is published to allow more creative
freedom in the programming for more experienced users. The technical
reference guide documents how the programmable bricks can be programmed by
means of Visual Basic. We hope that the release of this document will
inspire even more people to develop imaginative applications of the
programmable brick. ...."
The only thing of topic is that you are not using Visual Basic. But events
won't work with visual basic aswell, or am I wrong here ??
If they are interested in "imaginative applications of the programmable
brick" they should offer the source of their spirit.ocx !?!?
