I have a strange problem I cannot solve. I recently reformatted my laptop and re-installed everything. When I try to load a chartbook with my custom studies gives me that error code... On this PC with the same operating system "Vista" everything works perfect. The data folder is copied over and identical on the laptop. I go into Analysis > Studies > Add Custom Study... And the DLL's for the custom studies are there! However, there is no "+" sign next to them. So it's recognizing the files... But for some reason windows wont let SierraChart load them? Both SierraChart versions are the same. I also tried other versions too. Everything is the same except the laptop gives Error code 126. I will install Visual Studio 2010 this week on that laptop. That will probably fix the problem. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2014-09-21 07:24:44

Fixed the problem... I went into Visual Studio 2010 Express... I changed the Project Defaults "Use of MFC" from "Use Standard Windows Libraries" to "Use MFC in a Static Library" and recompiled the DLL's. My laptop can use them now! You should add this note to the DLL help page. Only downside is the DLL's are much bigger... Date Time Of Last Edit: 2014-09-21 07:38:16

The documentation has been updated to indicate how to statically link with the Runtime Libraries: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_VCExpress.php#ConfigureProject There is no mention of MFC because the instructions do not indicate to use MFC. But if you are using MFC , definitely use it in a static library. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

I am using Visual C++ 2010 Express. It does not give the option to not use MFC... There are three options in Configuration Properties > General > Use of MFC: "Use Standard Windows Libraries", "Use MFC in a Static Library", or "Use MFC in a Shared DLL". |

Actually it does give you the option but the language might be deceiving. You need to choose: "Use Standard Windows Libraries" Also refer to step 8 here: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_VCExpress.php#ConfigureProject Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Yes, but those DLL's will only work on my PC... As I said originally. "Use Windows Standard Libraries" will not work on my laptop or other Vista Computer. See original post. Those DLL's compiled with that option will not work on any of my computers that use Windows Vista without Visual Studio C++ Installed. They will also not work on some other Windows operating systems like Server 2000 and etc... Until Visual Studio C++ is installed too. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2014-10-12 00:22:50

When setting "Use Windows Standard Libraries", the DLL will work on any system without Visual C++ installed as long as you follow step 8 here: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_VCExpress.php#ConfigureProject This we are certain of. Unless the option we mention in step 8 is not available in your version of Visual C++ but it should be because you can statically link to MFC. The dependency that is being created and prevents the DLL from working on other systems is not with MFC, but what is known as the Visual C++ runtime libraries. These are separate from MFC.
