- NetWare Interface for Visual Basic (NIVB)
- Version 1.0
- Copyright 1993, Novell, Inc.
-
- NIVB is based on the NetWare C Interface for Windows Software Development
- Kit (SDK), version 1.3 of the NetWare DLLs. The DLLs can be downloaded from
- Compuserve's NOVFILES forum (WINUP7.ZIP). They are also included with an
- example program (NWTEST.ZIP) that illustrates how to use NIVB. NWTEST can
- be downloaded from NOVLIB.
-
- NIVB supports all NetWare API functions except IPX/SPX.
-
- The SDK is available through Novell's Professional Developer's Program
- (PDP). For information on becoming a member of the PDP and obtaining
- Novell SDKs, call 1-800-RED-WORD (800-733-9673) or 512-794-1796. The SDK
- includes documentation for the APIs in the Windows DLLs, so to program
- to NIVB, you will need the SDK.
-
- NIVB is not supported through Novell's regular Technical Support
- channels. It is mostly untested, and therefore Novell makes no warranty
- of its merchantability or fitness for any purpose.
-
- NIVB was developed by Novell's Systems Research Department, publishers of
- NetWare Application Notes. An Application Note on NIVB will be published
- in the July '93 issue. Also, look for an extensive example program (called
- NWTEST) that illustrates how to use the interface.
-
- Barring unforseen circumstances, Systems Research will (someday real
- soon) publish a version of NIVB based on the NetWare 4.0 Client SDK, with
- support for NetWare 4.0 and NetWare Directory Services (NDS).
-
- The Systems Research Department welcomes feedback and questions on NIVB.
