Windows Application Notes

On Rainlendar:

I tried this one out. Hopes are not very good for making this calendar function properly under ODIN, any build. Using 20050306 debug, you first have to acquire from Win2k or WinXP, files msvcp60.dll oleacc.dll and oleaccrc.dll but even with these you will still get alot of N-E-A rc 127 failures as can be seen in the odin32_0.log. This Rainlendar package relies on too many Windows functions that ODIN has not been coded for. But anyway, I got it to come up to a point. After replying IGNORE to the Non-Existing-API error: oleacc.dll -> Hwnd-UserSize (loaded by OLE32.DLL) the calendar appears in the upper left corner of your desktop in the form of a 2 inch square BLACK block. At the same time the Rainlendar icon appears in the systray. If you click on this systray icon, the configuration panels will cleanly display and you can 'play' with the various settings. If you click on 'quit' the program will cleanly exit. The problem with the Black Block situation, I feel, stems from the program's use of a Windows transparency function which the program is trying to cutely use to place the calendar alpha\numerics onto the desktop. Try as I may, I could not find a way to make the wanted data appear in the Black Block area. So, I finally gave up. But, I installed in on WinXP and it looks kinda kool.
