DIO-24 Writing Digital Output

[Letsrockk]

I am trying to use the DOoneport.c code in the National Instruments
examples. The program will not compile in Visual C++ 6.0. Does anyone
have the code in c that compiles and writes simple data to the ports?
The data being written to the ports are simple key strokes like 0-9 and
A-F.

Check out this NI Knowledgebase entry for help with compiling and running
NI-DAQ examples in VC++:

you will probably find that even a DOS (excuse me, a "windows console
application") app developed in Visual C++ 6.0 will not let you access the
ports - they are, after all, hardware and the Windows GUI garbage is there
to protect you from having to deal with hardware because it's too difficult
......... Seriously - the hardware is hidden from you and you may have to
develop a device driver monster to let windows expose it to you.
(Yes I hate windows - It's ruined the PC for tight, fast real time (sub 1
second) operations on PC's.)
