Okay thanks acer, I googled my own but couldn't find it.   

However it is much faster at looking at the questions one has posted (kind of like the mapleprimes 1)  Great for searching and much faster than mapleprimes.  I like the question layout on maplesoft simple and fast.

@ Patrick, I agree as well

@Acer, Didn't know about that either.  I can't seem to find a main list of users on maplesoft to jump to my own full list.  Can you point it out?

@lemelinm glad you figured it out.  I didn't think control characters was a problem but it was worth a suggestion.

To Maple or not to Maple, that is the question.  Everything Maple, all the fun is in trying to figure out how to do something in Maple. 

To quote John F. Kennedy "We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, ... "

Replacing "go to the moon in this decade" with "use Maple", or some variation thereof, makes the quote a little better I think.  I'm not saying it's harder with Maple but it certainly can make things a lot more interesting.

Sometimes invisible control characters gives Maple troubles.  I'm not actually sure if that's the problem, but just to be sure check your string to see if has control characters.

StringTools[HasControlCharacter](str);

Remove them from str and you should be golden for SearchAll to work.  If not, I think the next best option is to upload your txt file.

Yes, although this appears to be spam.  I thought we could use this in Maple.  In fact years ago I designed a model with maple just using PLOT3D(POLYGONS command.  Lots of points, and it took too long so I moved to AutoCAD.

Being a partial carpenter myself, I have built my own sheds from scratch, my own trusses for an 8 foot shed I built 5 years ago.  In Canada the shed has to be less than 108 sq ft. without a permit to build.  So 10x10 works nice.  I am currently building a mud room on my house.  And in fact just last night I was trying to input coords for the walls in Maple, but as before it requires a lot of points and a lot of time.  I switched again to AutoCAD which I can draw 2d models quickly and with ease but I wanted 3d models which Maple rotates in real time nicely and the AutoCAD version I have, does not. 

I have thought about creating a procedure in Maple that creates a model and plan for a shed and this spam post rekindled the idea.  Anyone else is welcome to the challenge, however it is not so much a mathematical challenge than it is a programming challenge. 

Is anyone able to figure it out for Maple 12?

Firstly, does the application still work?  Surely someone can let me know if the code is still working? 

Secondly, can it be fixed to work in Maple 12?  How?

Some help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the variations.  Yes, one must pay close attention to the spaces.

Since the sndrec32.exe application is located in the Windows/system32 active directory, I don't think it is necessary to move it.

Where the original worksheet solutions posted by Joe Riel, Thomas Richards and Alec Mihailovs refer to, have dissappeared.  There are no links for them anywhere, not in their blogs and not here they must have been lost in the transition to primes2.

Old yes I know but can anyone post links to all the worksheets?

That's the problem, I can't figure out how to get it to working once sndrec32.exe has been sent the play command. 

I put a timing inside Herclau's proc using a while (time[real]-st)<2 do and I managed to crash Windows XP.  Many sndrec32.exe files started opening and I flooded my system, I couldn't get out of it and had to pull the plug.

... wait okay that was with ssystem.  I will try system as you suggested and see what happens.  Also taskkill is only available to Windows XP professional versions.  I only have the home version so I must use the tskill command.
