Message-ID: <4959@cica.cica.indiana.edu> Date: 11 Sep 90 14:36:40 GMT Organization: Center for Innov. Comp. Appl., Bloomington, IN Lines: 14 I want to start a device driver from an INIT( or an application). I created a simple device driver, for testing, loaded it into the resource file of an application. The application then called the device driver with the OpenDriver command using the device driver name preceeded by '.'. I receive the error -37 (bdNameErr). What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Charles McClary cmcclary@silver.ucs.indiana.edu
