WCP94C.ZIP 05/18/93
*****************************************************************
Requires that you have already applied the WCP94B.ZIP PATCH in
WUGNET lib 12. It also assumes you have the PATCH.EXE found in the
same library as PATCH.ZIP
For those of you wondering the WC094B & WC094C.ZIP have been
updated to be consistent with this patch. You don't need to
download the latest version if you apply this patch.

PATCH For WinCIS .94 Dated 4/12/93 At 515883
The only file updated by this patch is WINCIS.EXE
This patch fixes an upload problem I introduced when I re-wrote the
file-xfer error handler. The problem was that I inadvertantly
used the wrong field name into which to read the file being uploaded
OUTPACKET$ instead of OURPACKET$. Since VB allows dynamic varaibles,
it read the data into a dynamic field (OUTPACKET$). The BSendPacket
routine when sending data is called with OURPACKET$. Since the the data
in the OURPACKET$ field was initialied to nulls it sent binary zeros to
CIS. If you sent binary files then the receiver of your data got nulls.
No error was detected by the program since it correctly calculated
CRC values based on the content of OURPACKET$ (nulls). I hope this
all make sense to you, its really a BIG GOOFUP on my part
(this programmer can't spell worth a dime<g>)
In addition this patch re-enables the edit menu under the
message editor. Yet another error I created when I changed the textbox
controls used by the editor to avoid overstrike capabilites..
To apply the patch copy the file into your WINCIS directory and....
C:\>CD \WINCIS ; Change to the wincis directory
C:\>PATCH -BACKUP WCP94C.RTP ; Apply Patch and create a backup

DLL & VBX REPLACEMENTS
*****************************************************************
If you intend to apply this patch file you'll need to replace
the following files in your WINDOWS or WINDOWS/SYSTEM directory
this is where wincis would have installed them...
VBCOMM.VBX 5/18/93 Replacement from microhelp...
Bug in prior version slowly consumes resources
resulting in hung downloads, and sporatic problems
with a large number of message scans,
Also corrects dropping of DTR after modem is hung up
MHIN200.VBX Replacement from microhelp...
Newer version of input control (same as WCP94B patch)
MHDES200.DLL New required .DLL from microhelp
WCISPRJ.DLL Minor changes since original .94 release
That should do it..
