How find the demo sources for Alaska XBase++?

[IDEAL Software Support]

We removed it. The demo was provided by a customer, but he didn't update the demo to the latest versions of VPE.

As far as I remember, Alaska can use ActiveX controls, so you can call VPE without problems.

I was not aware that anyone was using the VPE-Xbase++ interface. I originally wrote that for VPE version 3.xx and have continually updated it to each version of VPE over the last 15 years for my own programs. If there is still interest by other VPE users, I will be happy to release an updated version.

The interface is a set of wrapper functions that encapsulate each of the VPE functions and make them accessible to Xbase++ in familiar xBase formats, ie:

VpePrint(hDoc, 100,200, "Hello World")
becomes
@ 100, 200 PRINT "Hello World"

This makes conversion of old forms very simple. The VPEP3271.DLL is the most recent that I am using. I will not be in the office until Monday 28-Dec-2015, I will send the demo source to Ideal Software at that time.
