Re: [foxboro] FoxAPI and AIM*API

New question with respect to writing into our I/A v8.4.2 system

We have a 3rd party application that was compiled using "NetAPI MFC Class"

We installed the FoxAPI v4.3.2 on one of our v8.4.2 XP P92 stations

The 3rd party machine is networked to the v8.4.2 P92

We can read values across this link from the I/A system but if we try to write 
to blocks the application fails.

We also have an AIM* historian on they system so I thought I would give the 
AimAPI a try and pointed the 3rd party app to the AimAPI (by changing the 
an_init.cfg IP/port) This test worked and the application could now read & 
write into the I/A system via AimAPI.

However I don't want to use AimAPI

Why won't the application work with FoxAPI ?

I have an open call with Foxboro that is going no where fast. The young lady 
doesn't even think that there is a difference between the to API's (FoxAPI & 
AimAPI)

Where can I go to get more help?

Thanks

Peter
