I have switched to Twilio, cut all ties with EZTexting and utilizing the code you all provided I can send a text. Thank you. However my program shuts down upon the return statement. What do I need in the Mak file for cUrl. I have currently LibCurl.lib, and hbcurl.lib in the .mak, I include hbcurl.ch in my program, and I have libcurl.dll in the application directory.

If the program successfully sends texts via Twilio and then you get a runtime error when closing, the problem is most likely in your code and it has nothing to do with your make file. Try finding the exact line that causes de GPF or write and share a reduced sample code that replicates the runtime error.

Here is my code, modified yours a little. Had to use my logging function. Using the Twilio API seems to work great, it the crashing of the program I can't figure out. Thanks, in advance. Line number in the hb_out.log file leads me to the "Return nil" statement. Error 6005: Exception error:

curl_global_cleanup()
Return nil

curl_global_init() and curl_global_cleanup() should be called only once in the program. Throw them away from the function.

Have a main function as an entry point. For example: Main(). And from that Main() entry point call curl_global_init.... then call your function as many times as needed. Then before exiting main() func, call curl_global_cleanup().

When sharing code it works best if sent as otherwise it is hard to follow as you loose all indentation. Just my 2 cents.

Your 2 (two) cents is golden. I have been on this board for more years that I would like to admit and I never knew how to do that. I will try to remember. I am going to try your fix now. Thanks,

Worked great, thank you my friend...
