Great Cookie !

SendTo is a bit updated....

It will soon be added again to the scripting database.

In the mean time you can download the attachment (=version 2.4.1).

Cookie you are aliveee... thanks I missed a lot this...

UPDATE: I doesn't work for me in Windows Vista SP2... Crash Rundll32 everytime I try to send something...

Also crashes on Windows 7 RTM (Build 7600)

just thought you should know cookie [=

blah.... why is Vista (and Win7) always doing so difficult
Works perfecty in XP.
Can't do much about (atm), sorry.

ok Cookie...

Javascript code:

---

oShortcut.Arguments = '"' + MsgPlus.ScriptFilesPath + '\\_sendfile.dll",DllInvokeSend ' + _sMyEmail + ' ' + sEmail;

---

Isn't it DllInvokeSendW? Not that it makes much of a difference as it still failes. Cookie send me the code and I will work on it.

Calling it from the commandline gives me this:

Perhaps if we had access the source code of the DLL, we could help you debugging.

Nope, the script is correct. This is how RUNDLL32 works when calling functions (it searches first for the unicode version). It has got nothing todo with the crash problem.

This isn't a problem in the DLL's source code (which is exact the same as the EXE which does work). This is a problem in how it is compiled as a DLL and how VB6 works internally like calling the correct entrypoint and instancing its internal objects and that sort of stuff.

If if you would strip everything in the sourcecode to the barebones (eg: simply A=A+1) you will have the exact same problems on Vista.

Note that this DLL does actually something which 99,99% of all people say is impossible: making a 'true' Windows DLL in VB6 (thus without the need to register it as an ActiveX, with a real working DllMain routine, etc), except that it apparently only works on XP ...

The only thing I can do is compiling it again as an EXE, but that also means it will be removed from the scripting DB again.

So as usual Cookie is right. I made a Dll that simply exported DllInvokeSend which had a message box. From there I called it using rundll32 and it failed. So Cookie looks like our only option is to do it in C++.
