Not sure... The error means there's a missing kernal API in the OS libraries. Nothing that we use directly uses DecodePointer, so it's gotta be a core runtime issue.

Here's some more info:
http://superuser.com/questions/164671/the-procedure-entry-point-decodepointer-could-not-be-located-in-the-dynamic-link

To be honest I'm not sure what has this requirement - whether it's the .NET runtimes or wwIPStuff's dependent C runtime libs (I think the latter - specifically the APIs used to host the .NET runtime).

Sorry I don't have a workaround for you - looks like this won't work with Windows 2000.

Hi Rick,
I installed .Net 2.0 on my Win2K machine using the link you provided--thanks!

When I try to send an email synchronously, I get the message "The procedure entry point DecodePointer could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll".
This occurs in function SetClrVersion, in the statement:

SetClrVersion(lcVersion)

The value of lcVersion is "V2.0.50727"

Can you tell me what is going wrong and how to correct this problem?

Two dlls are in the VFP path: wwDotNetBridge.dll and wwipstuff.dll .


I get the same error when I try to send a message asynchronously on the Win/2K machine. I get this message when I call loSmtp.SendMailASync().
On the Win/XP machine, I can send the message asynchronously.

Thanks, Chaim

PS I looked through some other messages and found this:

I think I see what's happening and it sucks!
Try this:
Go find those two DLLS and then right click each one and click on the Unblock option.

I thought this might be relevant to my situation.

I am trying to unblock the two dlls but I cannot find any Unblock option. This is what I am doing:
.open Windows Explorer
.locate the dll
.right click
.select properties
.the Properties dialog comes up but there is no Unblock option anywhere as far as I can see. This is true both in Win2K and WinXP.

Is this procedure relevant to my problem? If so, how can I unblock the dlls?

Thanks!
