Three problems here. First, you posted this in the wrong forum so I moved it for you. Second, you hijacked a thread. From now on please start a new thread for a new problem. Third, you didn't use the Code tool to insert code. Your code went in as text which means it does not display properly. I corrected that as well.

As for the original poster, I have asked that this be moved to vb.net.

Sorry. My mistake. I didn't realize that the third poster (who specified VB6) was not the OP. They both had the same generic avatar and I didn't spot the name. I'm going to move it back to VB.Net.
