Works great! Have searched for something like that!

Now would it also be possible to actually change the Text?

[SmOke_N]

Shouldn't you free the library?

[weaponx]

My library is already free, I just show them my card and off I go with my books.

[XxXFaNtA]

Should that be funny?

[therks]

I thought it was funny.

[BrettF]

Same here...

And now on topic, it looks good Should probably do what Smoke says to...

[GaryFrost]

_WinAPI_LoadLibraryEx

_WinAPI_FreeLibrary

Only thing missing from the _WinAPI for this is the LoadString

[Raik]

sorry? what do you taking about? should i add something like dllclose or set $Dll and $String to zero?

i'm not shure, its my first use of dlls. :-O

[therks]

Add in a line like this?

DllCall("Kernel32.dll","long","FreeLibrary","long",$Dll[0])

After the LoadStringA call.

[Raik]

done.

[GaryFrost]

done.

Liked your idea, so I went ahead and added the _WinAPI_LoadString($hInstance, $iStringId) function which was not in the WinAPI library

This is the function header in 3.2.9.13 beta
