XCLN: Invalid Procedure Call from Mefbrows.exe (157210)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client 4.0

This article was previously published under Q157210

SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to run the Microsoft Electronic Forms Designer for Microsoft Mail for PC Networks e-form Mefbrows.exe from a Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client, the following error may occur.
Invalid procedure call

CAUSE

This error can occur because Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client uses the Msmail32.ini and Shared32.ini initialization files exclusively. Mefbrows.exe is designed to search only the Msmail.ini and Shared.ini files for Microsoft Mail Forms Designer e-forms.

WORKAROUND

You can work around this problem by modifying and regenerating an executable file for Mefbrows.exe.

The Visual Basic Project for Mefbrows.exe contains a Constants.bas file that includes the following declarations.
   Global Const SHARED_INI$ = "SHARED.INI"
   Global Const LOCAL_INI$ = "MSMAIL.INI
				

  1. Replace the "SHARED.INI" declaration with "SHARED32.INI".
  2. Replace "MSMAIL.INI" with "MSMAIL32.INI".
  3. Create a new executable file for the project using either Microsoft Visual Basic 3.0 or Microsoft Visual Basic 4.0 16-bit. The source code for Mefbrows.exe can be found on the Microsoft Electronic Forms Designer installation disks.
