Received the memo, but when I download the API, it tells me that the version is 3.1.0.19. The version of the file itself doesn't say 3.1.1.0 either. How do I know that I have the latest and greatest?

3.1.0.19 is the version of the trader application, which was not updated yet. Make sure to download the API included into one of our samples. The API.DLL version should be 3.1.1.0.

That's the thing, the version according to Windows is 3.1.2740.27665 which doesn't make it clear if that's 3.1.1.0.

I'm not much of a software writer (my trading isn't much better either). But I want to trade, I don't want to have to spend hours and hours and hours and hours and hours rewriting and debugging the code in your example to make it work the way I want. Can I continue using the current API with the previous Advanced Example?

The sample code is almost intact (except just a few bugfixes and minor typename changes).
You should be able to take the API.DLL file from the new sample and use it with your existing application.

I get these errors when I change the API

either get the DOMControl.cs file from the new sample, or, if you have already changed it -replace these four "ushort" entries to "uint" - that will help.
