We poor shmuks in the UK have a little difficulty tuning to a Philadelphia radio station! I was sort of hoping that the "announcement of epic proportions" was going to be repeated on the PowerBASIC website, but no - it's obvious that everybody who matters (ie. Americans) will have heard it on the radio! Does it have anything to do with the development of PB/DLL into a viable
competitor to VB, which we have been promised for some time?

A tad bit of sour grapes there John? Or did you just feel like spouting a bit of bull**** when you woke up this morning? We posted some information on our web BBS and our sales people are fast
and furiously working on a new page for our web site.
And as soon as we get the recording from the studio, we'll make it
available on our web site via RealAudio.

Sorry about that <grin>. I was feel frustrated because I couldn't find out anything about the much-heralded announcement. The website didn't give any information and I just didn't think of looking on the BBS. Judging by some of the other comments I wasn't the only one in this position - so I think you have to take some of the responsibility. Also, I was really looking forward to the development of PB/DLL and Powergen
into a tool that could provide a valid alternative to VB for small projects.
You suggested/promised this when Powergen first came out. Is this any
nearer?
Regards, John.

Dave: So tell us, what's it about? Wouldn't this be a good place to make any anouncements relating to basic? -- Looking forward: Alan Shinn Experience the

In a week or two, PB/DLL 6.0 and PB/CC 2.0 will be released. Some new features to both compilers:
- Build-in TCP/IP support (both server & client), as well as UDP.
- Regular expressions
- Build-in COM support
- Dynamic Dialog Tools (PB/DLL only) which allows you to create graphical
dialog windows on the fly... Pretty powerfull.
- A lot of other, smaller additions
(Mcase$, optional leading zero's for BIN$/HEX$/OCT$, Diskfree,
Disksize, Filecopy, Filename$, FileAttr, Parse$, Sleep, Strinsert$,
Strdelete$, etc...)
