*SOLVED BY KAIN*

Welp, i got it fixed... I just did this:

Call Form_Load

I thought it would completely reload everything, and maybe it does, but it is so fast i cant tell its being done.
...

Well I am going to say for now that the problem has been corrected. I still am not 100% sure that it is, but i havent had it happen for 2 days straight.

What I did was rearrange some of the code...

I tried the 'state' approach and it does work. I would really like to see it as it does throughout the entire process line by line, but i dont know how to do that. What I mean is like make a...

Trying your first methos, I am still getting an error.

Compile Error: Arguement not optional


Private Sub Command2_Click()
If bWinsock2_Connect = False Then Call Winsock2_Connect
If...

Well I am not having much luck with your code to test what needs to be run.

I have 2 Private Sub's that should run when a button is pressed.

They are the following:

Private Sub...

I will look into your solutions and get back to you.

Thanks for the help. :)

The pause is being called. I put the code for it on the previous page. Ill post it again here for you:

Sub pause(interval)
Current = Timer
Do While Timer - Current < Val(interval)
DoEvents...

That particular portion of code has nothing to do with a password in the way you are describing at all. That piece of code has to do with a database check for something else entirely. And it doesnt...

Another problem I am looking into is the following:

How does one use a command button to run private sub's (again) or (at all)?

For instance if a website isn't available at the exact moment...

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. But as far as the password goes, if there is no password at all, it asks if you want to make one. If not, then the password form does not come up. If you...

the code for pause goes as follows and I am fairly certain that it is not part of the problem:

Sub pause(interval)
Current = Timer
Do While Timer - Current < Val(interval)
DoEvents
Loop
End...

Good thinking.

Just to let you know... I tried to completely redo the code and that dide work either. Since there is 3 different if then statements, and it DOES repeat 3 times, I started...

ok i have been busy redoing a lot of the code....

the form intermittently does the aforementioned initial problem now. VERY strange indeed.

I will attempt to redo the entire code for the form...

no i havent looked for that.. I will do it now. I know its looping the code, but i dont know why, obviously... hehe. thanks for the help.. ill check it out.

also, Im not sure how a Do While...

ok BigSeckC,

Here is the code I am having an issue with at the moment.

If Len(pass) <> 0 And InStr(1, pass, "reset") = False Then
frmVerify.Height = 2100
Label2.Visible = True...

What Veena said will work just fine, but you could also completely remove the entire border including the X at runtime by simply going to the BorderStyle property when your form is chosen and setting...

This is a VB6 question.

I seem to have a problem with a form that should be unloading or at the very least become not visible. For whatever reason when another form is shown (form2.Show as an...

It doesnt matter if I add a breakpoint to it or not when the syntax isnt right.

I know you are trying to help, but the error is that of syntax. Ill just try to get help in the VB section. Thanks...

Believe me, I have tried... Many times LizR. Either I don't know how to do debugging effectively, or I am just plain stupid, or a combinatioin of both (the latter is most likely).

This tends to...

ok well, i guess ill take the remaining bit of it to the VB forum. If you are interested in helping me figure out how to parse the proper characters, I think the only problem is a matter of syntax...

Basically, I want to check and see if a certain word or combination of letters and/or numbers is on a website using a winsock connection.

I can do this in delphi, but i cant seem to get the hang...

i think putting that in actually worked! lol! niiiiiice!

but now im stuff in the data retreival part.. i need to look into that before i ask more questions.... If you care to... you could...

anyone? PLeeeeease? :)

I think you have a good point... But if I dont put them within the "" , it returns an error as follows:

Compile Error:

Expected: expression

If you know of a way for a program written in VB6...

thanks for the help with the watch to see what is happening. It looks like it does connect to the remost host because it returns an ip for that host. but it seems to get stuck in the subroutine. ...

Thanks Lizr,

I dont really know how to find out what I am "getting back" from the program when i run it.

I think the line sub that isnt working right is this one:

Private Sub...

welp i hope someone can help me, i think i jes have the syntax wrong. anyone is certainly welcome to put their 2 cents in. :) Also, wysiwyg... i dont have any public/global variables set for this.

First off let me say if this is in the wrong forum i sincerely apologize. I put this is the delphi/pascal forum but haven't gotten much back from that. so I thought I may try it here to see if some...

Hello LizR,

The difference is that I dont get anything at all. It doesnt seem to do anything except for sit there checking to see if the info in the code matches the info at the website i have...

First off let me say if this is in the wrong forum i sincerely apologize. Since most people move from VB6 to Delphi, I figured this would be the proper place to put this question.

The code I did...

Thanks Douas,

I'll keep on trying.

plenty of examples on the net for I think pascal version .00000011 hehe

I cant seem to get it to work properly.

Better yet, a component to load binary files into a memo, listview, richedit,...

better yet, why the 5 line restriction.. guiness world record? hehe

oops, Duoas asked why already, my bad...

I did what you suggested (and admittedly feel QUITE STUPID for not thinking of this before posting my question).

WOW at the simplicity of the answers to my problems....

Solved. Thank you Duoas.

What I mean when saying when the program starts is when I "play" the program. There are 2 functions in the code the produce one number. The funcions are in the implementation part of the code.

I...

Actually, I am not doing anything on form create. There is a function or 2 that is being called when the program strarts. So what I did was went to the TButoon's events in the object inspector. ...

I have the button doing the function over and over again, but I did it by saying the the button click should perfom a FormCreate.

This cant be what you meant. can it?

Very big help.. darn syntax... I didnt add () around the edit.text boxes.. that was the problem. :\

Thanks also for the other info regarding not using mterror unless needed. I have also...

so you are saying to write the error code out separately for each edit box?


if edit1.text <= '' then
MessageDlg('whatever goes here',mtError,[mbOK],0)

if edit2.text <= '' then
...

"create a ("utility function") to get the number."

oh Duoas... HAHAHHA!!! cmon now... you know better than this.. lolol

"When your program starts, call the function. When you press the...
