Error when calling a Dll with point

[XiaomingSu]

Hi there,  I try to call  function with below function, somehow it doesn't work well.

I enclose vi in attachment, please check if any wrong when I create it, thanks in advance.

Function source:

=====================

MXEIO_Connect(
char * szIP,
WORD wPort,
DWORD dwTimeOut,
int * hConnection );

======================

Did I put wrong format in handle "hConnection"? I set it as a format " point" ,  return value, however, is still wrong .

Try "Signed Pointer-sized Integer" for data type.

Thank you for your advice, I follow the change you advice and it doesn't work

the original function like below

========================================================

MXEIO_E1K_tpfConnect(char *, WORD, DWORD, int *, char *); 

=======================================================

Looks like you forgot the last parameter: char *

Because vi wrap a shell around the funtion with char.

I update VI according to original funtion, pls help to check, thanks

What?

Is the last parameter (password) an input ?

An empty password ?

You didn't provide enough info to determind if the calling convention should be stdcall or C.  Can you post the header file?
