| | I don't know how your software locks your folders, but an older program, FolderLock, used a rootkit to lock/hide folders (unfortunately, FolderLock didn't hide the folders and files when accessed from another computer on the LAN). If your software also uses a rootkit to function you might try a rootkit … |

| | One file has a line like "TFTTFFT" which I presume are the correct answers (true/false) for seven questions. Does the second file contain multiple lines (one for each student) in the format "#### " followed by the same number of "T", "F" or "-" entries as there are in the … |

| | You have to convert the strings to their integer equivalents with CInt as in num1 = CInt(txtFirstNum.Text) But you should first check that the string is a valid number by If IsNumeric(txtFirstNum.Text) Then num1 = CInt(txtFirstNum.Text) Else MsgBox("First Number (" & txtFirstNum.Text & ") is not a number") End If |
