These issues, which I also had with my own VB toolbar, are why I went to write a Windows one in C.

The VB runtimes, the Registry, inexplicable but (sometimes) silent errors, are all very frustrating.

Hey, I went and downloaded your MUClientWindow.exe and tried to run it, but nothing pops up. I get the pointer-loading Icon and then it stops, and nothing shows up. What do I need to do? I'm running 98Se, if thats any help.

(If I remember correctly) Running it doesn't create a window, try going through the steps outlined on page 1, and you should be set.

"Download it, run it, and paste this alias:"

Step 2 - Complete
Step 3 - Where am I pasting this alias?

In the alias menu (thats the one you go to and see all the aliases in the grid) click 'paste' and the alias will be pasted into the world (obviously it has to be on the clipboard).

Looks like I get a totally different error than everyone else:

Error number: -2146827859
Event: Execution of line 4 column 1
Description: ActiveX component can't create object: 'MUClientWindow.TextBox'
Line in error:

Called by: Immediate execution

Any help with this one?

Hmm, are you sure the executable is in a directory where the OS can find it? Place it in the Windows directory, to be safe.

Well, gave it a shot and put the executable in the Windows directory, but still no luck to get it running. Same error as the last one.

Yeah, I tried your window too, I couldn't get it to work either.

*ammended* I've given up on the window thing untill Nick gets it working. I'll just survive with what I got for now.

*ammended again* Yeah, like before, I still can't get it running, Anways, yeah. Kind of a bummer. Yeah. Didn't realize I'd already tried it in the past.

That's very odd, it's very straightforward to run, you just unzip it, run it, run mushclient, and paste the alias in... Let me try again, hopefully it'll error out :p

Hmm, Are you an administrator on your computer?
Or are you running a limited account?

No idea if it would even make a difference. But since the code is good, it's got to be some setting or something of the like.
