Title: Setname method not working in Windows 7 64 bit
Post by: BONTEMPI on March 20, 2010, 04:06:50 PM
The setname method works fine on an XP machine i've tested but it wont change the dongle name on the Windows 7 64bit system.

The getname method works fine however on both systems.

Is this a known issue or am I missing something.

I have the purchased Developer edition and have the latest version WCL  6.7.4.0 referenced.

Please help!

Cheers

Nick

Hi Mike, and thanks for the prompt reply.  ;)

I was running it from the IDE so ran it from the bin instead and works as it should.

Thanks again
