Okay, I'll try that out for now.

Does nobod know the answer to this?

Okay, so here's the challenge. I want a continously running program that will automatically close all running programs, log off the user account and shut down the computer when the batterly life of...

Nevermind. I figured out how to change datatypes. I finished the program. Thanks for the help.

Thanks for helping but now I have a few other problems with the same program. I don't know how to change a datatype from variant to currency part way through a program.

I have a program where there are text boxes that accept values and then a command button is pressed. I need to know how to let the program check if the values entered are negative or anything that...

Thanks for the help.

Anytime I open Visual Basic 6 I need to add the common dialog box control to my tool box. Is there any way I can keep that in my toolbox every time I open visual basic 6 without having to add it...

Yeah sorry. I just realized the For Next is a loop. Lol. But yeah it works. Thanks for your help.

Is there any way to use a For Next combination? Possibly with a variable as the index number? I'll try it. If not, then tell me how you would use a loop.

This is just a simple question. There are four command buttons in a control array. I want to write code for one of them that changes the same property in the same way for all of them. When I tried...

Edit. Sorry, I thought I could help but I misunderstood the question. I don't know how to delete posts.

But that's only if he wants something to happen immediately after clicking an option.

Well you have to give the option buttons names. It depends on what you want the program to use with this information. Like I said, I would probably use a command button under which the code you...

Did that help at all or are you still left in the dark? Someone else might be able to help you a little better.

I think it depends more on what you want to do with it. I would probably put the code under a command button. It might say something like this.

If opt1 is true
vb code here
end if
if opt2 is...

Well, I know a little bit about it so I'll try to help. You should first create a frame from the toolbox. Then on top of that you can put the option buttons, found in the toolbox, in the frame along...

That will be what you probably need to do but if you're trying to put those buttons on the application that isn't in a message box then just add a command button from the tool box and in the property...

I got a book for it that explains it one step at a time but by the end it gets complicated so you actually learn a lot. It's called "Sam's teach your self Visual basic 6" or something like that. It's...

Oh, thanks. I didn't know I had a different version than this forum. I'll send you my e-mail.

What is the MSDN library?

Okay, so I just got Visual Basic, but I don't really know how to use it yet. I know just a few things here and there. I want to start out with just some basic things. I tried making the quadratic...
