ATC_ID in C Gauge

Probably something likePCHAR c_atc_string;execute_calculator_code ( (A:ATC ID, string), c_atc_string, 0 );Doug

Try:...PCHAR patc=NULL;...execute_calculator_code("(A:ATC ID,string)",NULL,NULL,(const char **)&patc);....if(patc)//... patc....Arne Bartels

Thanks, guys. I'll give it a go when I can find some time to "experiment."For now I'll simply use the old "tried and true" XML code I've used forever... ;)

Gents,Hello! I've been messing around with the scenery end of FS for a few years now, but now I'm trying to create an FS Module. I'd like to read the ATC_ID with the module and I was hoping to use the execute_calculator_code I can't seem to find where the function is defined though. Is there a way I can include this in my module? Thanks for the help!Matt Perryfoxtrotsierra.org
