hi Roger

i use the function DC_GetNetName() in my application

it returns the netname from the registry (my netname "MSI-WORKS" has 9 chars und the
function returns 10 chars (when i test it with "len(dc_GetName())")

when i display the return value with MSGBOX() i see "MSI-WORKS" - ok
when i display the return value with DC_MSGBOX i see only "MSI_WOR...." (the end has "...")
with DCSAY i see a undefind Char at the End of the Name (see Picture)
i think that the char at the end makes the "MSI-WOR..." Error in DC_MSGBOX()

my workaround is to trim the last char - Can you look at your function if you can fix it
is use WinXP SP3 but the problem is also on VISTA und i hera about that on WIN7 it is also

thanks

Some Win API calls put a Chr(0) at the end of a string.

I would try this instead:

works fine

i put the line into DC_GetNetName() in _DCFUNCT.PRG - not in my Application!
so please remember this for your v255

thanks for help

I already made the change in 255.
