Disabling console

[Wane Post]

I've written a simple application to move some files using the movefile API using PBCC10. Is there any way to disable the console output (it flashes briefly). Thanks.

If you start CC-module from another Win32-application, not PB-DLL, you can hide console using 0 as nCmdShow in WinExec.
In PB-DLL
1) you can use SHELL statement with 0 as WndStyle.
2) to port PB/CC code into PB/DLL module.

If you start PB/CC from bat-file, it's possible to change one byte in Exe-module, which informs Windows that this module is a console application
(it seems to me, that with offset &HDC, &H03 -> &H02; but this technology is described on forum some times).
A correction will make a window invisible.
