No 'logic' as such. You need to be well-conversant with the basic properties and methods of the listbox and combobox controls.

Agreed. That is more practicable for such long delays.

Well, I've used it this way. No other ideas.

My post shows you one way to introduce those 2-minute delays that you want.

Repeated Thread (http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread132002.html). :D

There might be ready-made API's (i m creating a new project of vb to access conncetivity in 5 PC small LAN.) out there.



For dealing with MS Access through VB, use ADODB.

Your being more specific will help us help you more.

Write this code in the declaration section:

Private Declare Sub Sleep Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)

Then suppose you want a delay of 2 minutes, then convert it into...

Eh?! What's the point repeating the words of the OP?

MSComm32 control can be used for serial port communication and for database handling (MS Access), you may use ADODB.

For ready-made API's use google (http://www.google.co.in/search?q=VB6+network+API&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a). Or if you like, you can establish...

It worked even with Access 2003 on my PC.

For just a horizontal scrollbar make ScrollBars=1. No need for making it MultiLine if you don't need the vertical scrollbar.

Then, use it ;).

Frankly, I couldn't find out the solution to your problem from your post. Post the entire code if possible/feasible.

Hi David, Use code tags as I've done here: You probably added an extra space in

Another 'fossil' thread bumped up right through :D

Go to Project-->Properties. Click on the Make tab. There you can enter version no., version info., application etc. Okay?

If you want to add those details, go to Project-->Add Form and select About Dialog. Specify the information there and link it with the menu option Help-->About in your application using menu editor.

The solution is already given in the previous posts... Wonder why the OP didn't get back.

Mark the thread as SOLVED if it is so.. That is the proper procedure over here.

On my XP, it supported Access 2003.



This means that you want the user to add his own functionalities and add them in the menus. Is it? Do you want the user to write the code for the new...

Why do you need that? Why not work in the same version you want to run it on?



Have you done that, or you're planning to do so?

Though I may be wrong, I think that code won't be compatible. You'll have to learn VB. And that's not much difficult. Come on!

Sorry, I didn't get what particular problem you're facing.

Use the ADODB control avilable in VB6. It basically deals with all the recordset in a MS Access database. Google for more info on the same. Hope this helps :)

You may also refer to the tutorial...

As you've probably done, keep two different forms - one would be your main form (the startup form) and second would be for updating the database. You can for example keep a password protection for...

If so, do mark the thread as 'Solved'.

Yeah. But by which means do you plan to update them? According to a certain rule, or randomly or according to user input?

I thought that you wanted the value of the last element to be assigned dynamically. But, this is also fine. Please do mark the thread as solved if it is so.

It's specially meant for developing mobile applications, so considering this problem, it'd be easier with J2ME than with VB.

You've posted the same problem over here. http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread129621.html

Please be patient and do not repost the same problems.

What kind of database do you have? How do you want to update it? Automatically?

I couldn't get you.

Considering what you want to do and your experience, the same project could be done more easily using J2ME than VB. So, if you're going to learn VB only for this particular project, switch to J2ME.

The OP wants to add new elements too. Your code doesn't support that.
