Hi
Are you running windows 7 by any chance ?

Flowcodes help file format is not supported in windows 7 by default. It still uses the old windows help system type files.
You can download a patch from the microsoft website to re-enable this type of help file.(just do a search for windows help on microsofts site.

Make sure you download the correct one for either 32bit or 64bit operating system.

If this isnt the problem maybe you could explain a bit more what you mean nothing happens.
1 in 10 people understand binary, the other one doesn't !

You can use this module but you would have to create code to drive it either from Flowcode or by creating a custom component and writing code in C.

The module we currently use for our TCP/IP and Webserver components is the WIZnet W3100.

Hello,

Flowcode v3.6 only supports 8bit PIC micros.

We do have a Flowcode v4 for dsPIC/PIC24 which supports 16bit PICmicros, but currently do not support 32bit PIC chips in any form.
