Micro$hite is useless, Im using VB for the simple fact I ws brought Up on Risc Basic and I figure it uses the same stone age methodology. Im not saying VB is crap, in fact its rather nice, but its expensive and can mess ur pc, like it did mine when i first started... A tip from me, never try to open a system file with: Open ("C:\windows\ [some dll]") for output as #1 print #1, "If the program works you will see this writing" Close #1 But, if you can make a program that can load and crash less than 10 times in a week, then Bill Gates will be out of a job. I suggest this little code snippet Private Sub Form_Load() Msgbox "So far, so good, doesnt seem to crash...oh wait...windows is loadin......",vbinformation,"Hmmm" End End Sub > Wow what a troll. > >
