Hi Anud,

Just Keep a Public Form Level Boolean Variable, and Make that true When Comman button is Clicked. and check based on that

actually....how do i make the code written in my project wait until the command button in the module has been clicked......


i tried setting the boolean variable true when the command button is clicked.....but the statements in the main project are executed before the command button is clicked......how do i rectify this problem???

[QVeen72]

Hi,

In that case, u need to have a Global Boolean Varaiable, defined in .Bas with scope = Public

In ur module Give:

Public MyFlag As Boolean

In Command Click :
MyFlag =True

In the Procedure where u want to check give this in the Beginning:

If Not MyFlag Then Exit Sub.

Hi Anud,

Usually in such caeses, we Call First the Login Form, We dont write any code in "Sub Main", (which is the Default starting point). In Login Form Validate/Call Dll's/ Check number of Try's. If every thing is OK, the Call another procedure which will start the Connection To Main Program/Module/Populate Global Variables.

sorry veena but i am not been able to understand you....

[AV Manoharan]

Anu, You again!

See a dll works as a subprogram right?

in that you have a form with a command button and you want to know in your main program whether the user had clicked the command button in it. Ist it not.?

First tell me whether that form is visible with the command button and get back to me.

[anud18]

yes sir the form along with the command button is visible...

Hello Anud,

UR .dll Form Has Got COMMAND Button....?

Look, after compilation, u can only access .dll's Libraries/Procedures/Functions.
Visual Interface of Dll has got no meaning in the Calling Program.
Clearify...

ya i created the showform function in the dll's class.....after calling the showform function i want the execution to proceed only after the command button has been clicked....

[QVeen72]

Hi,

Then in .dll call the form in Modal:

Form1.Show 1

And in Command Click, Unload the Form

its still not working.....i think its a case of making a thread wait.....can you please give an example wherein i can make a particular thread untill a particular event is fired....

[vbCNEW]

hello anud18.. i think veena is right. if ur just doing a login forn... try call it then proceed to the process u want after the clicked event..
sometimes we need to change everything to fixed our problems!!!

but if u really want to put a code as it is...
and u want a wait until button is pressed??? try put a loop before the process need to be executed after the clicked and put a DOEVENTS .. use the variable to end the loop.. i hope it helps

[anud18]

havnt been able to sort out the problem still...

[AV Manoharan]

yes sir the form along with the command button is visible...

OK in that in sub command1_Click() you add

Unload Form2

and back in the main form immediately after

Form2.Show vbModal

Give this command

Form_load
command1.SetFocus (or any control in the main form)

remember a second form_load will duplicate all those AddItems
beware of that one.
For that for each control you have to removeitems in a loop that has been added on the initial state.

not working sir
