That's a very important step. Don't forget to do an AW.Init, an AW.Create, and
an AW.Login...

Right-o. So you gotta make your code a state machine instead of a linear
script...

That's because MrGrimm (in his infinite wisdom ;) has created a number of events
in the ocx which are triggered when the callbacks are fired (named, oddly
enough, AWCallback_XXX) Sure, it's not so elegant as C would make things, but
doing pointers (even function pointers) in VB is really, really painful.

Are you using the very, very most recent version of Grimm's ocx? (assuming you are using that)

Also, how are you accessing the different instances of the ocx? You need to create a seperate instance of the OCX for each bot instance.

Are you checking your return codes? They are often _very_ enlightening. I know that since I added error checking to the BotTool, it's been much easier to debug/troubleshoot.

You're doing the whole aw.init aw.create aw.login thing, too, of course... Hmm...

I can't really say more unless I see code fragments, because a lot of the things that might be going wrong are probably on that level. :-/
