I don't know which part of BCB uses this function BUT :
As far as I can see you are not running Appl.exe on WinNT4 / Win2K / WinXP
because these are the only platforms supporting the wide character version
of this function "lstrcpynW". On the other "smaller" OS there should be the
function "lstrcpynA" available.
It is part of Win32 API for "String Manipulation Functions" .
Hope this helps somehow,

In tchar.h is defined a whole set of text routines that will either be Unicode or MBCS functions depedning upon conditional defines at compile time.
Example:
_tcsncpy will be mapped to
strncpy - if UNICODE and MBCS is not defined
_mbsnbcpy - if MBCS is defined
wcsncpy - if UNICODE is defined
If you have the conditional define UNICODE set then the compiler will change some

Yahia,
I'm running under Windows XP, this shouldn't be a problem.
Dean,
I'm not using any of those functions. The function is lstrcpynW and it's
exported by Kernel32.dll ( as I discovered via PEExplorer ).
My application is a COM application and the I've got several plugin type
components that interact with the base application via a defined COM
interface.
My guess is that something under the covers isn't being linked in correctly.
Yet, as I stated before, I have exactly the same code on both machine with
the compilers on each of those machines configured exactly
the same ( down to the directory structures and paths ).
My guess is that something either isn't linking right, or that the de{*word*81}
isn't working correctly within XP.
