Mud server I mean, sorry. I've been up for 36 hours and I have no clue what the heck I'm saying. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
I liked your last one so you'll get a 5 from me. You should do OLC building too :) Thats something I did in c on my mud code. One of the best things I ever did. Keep up the great work. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
If anyone needs some deeper assistence with the current code email me to vitali@actcom.co.il or contact me by ICQ: 1912453. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Just a quick remind to the people that have problems with DAO. You have to install it from the Vb6 disc. I believe that DAO is under the "Microsoft ODBC drivers", however, I am not sure about it though so if it still doesn't work and you have some free space install the whole "Data access" option.
P.S To access the add/remove components options go to Add/Remove programs and do remove Visual Basic 6, afterward you'll have an option of Add/Remove components and Uninstalling Visual Basic. Choose the first one and you're there. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Nice, the only thing i think that needs tweaked is the form resize sub... it needs some error handling, if you make the form very very small it will give you an error... just add
On Error Resume Next
right after
Private Sub Form_Resize() If Me.WindowState <> vbMinimized Then
Other than thats its nice... (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Another thing I want to alert you about. It seems that the Mswinsck.ocx gets corrupted for some reason. You'll know that your Mswinsck.ocx is corrupted if when you send some command to the mud like "say", some other user doesn't see outright what you "said" and has to input some command to see it. If you notice this problem that is not a problem in the code. Contact me in ICQ or email and I will send you the right working version of Mswinsck.ocx. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Some people told me about the following error, while trying to run/compile BeMud, "Run-time error '429': ActiveX component can't create object". This happens due dao version incompatability. You have 3.5 and I was using 3.6, so you should upgrade the MDAC. This link has an upgrade for the jet drivers that effectively upgrades the DAO to 3.6:
Good Job :) ...You should download the NetMeeting SDK from Microsoft and turn it into a NetMeeting app. I've been working on a real-time MUD for NetMeeting for years, can't find the time to finish it... deckerd26354

I really, really want to try this out.. but unfortunately, I can get other OCX files to register but keep getting errors installing the MSWINSCK.OCX file. I've downloaded both the regsvr32.exe and the mswinsck.ocx file over 6 times, from six different places (Okay, hit me in the head with a brick!).. but I really would like to try this code. Any sugegstions?

A MUD server on windows written in Visual Basic? I'll pass. ;) (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)

That mud server is actually very good for something made in Visual basic. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)

Line 58, Column 16
Record.Seek (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
No, you are not the only one; how do you fix the Record.Seek error at Line 58...Column 16? It always comes up when I try to decompile it (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
