Thanks all My clumbsy method is the same as WildbillH. It would seem that it is not as clumbsy as I first thought. One question though, what is the difference in CPU/system resource usage between the above two methods? ciaran ciaranr@albany.jrc.net.au

Michael Bronner The method adopted by edrev is more pertinent with ADO. A direct corollory to this is to check for the existence of records in a recordset. Sometimes checking for recordcount > 0 is not always accurate. I adopt a tip passed to me. Namely; If not(adorecset.bof = true and...

the only problem with this approach is when the printer is unavailable (off line, not connected etc). A good work around is writing directly to the spooler. Damned if I can remember where I found the code but try support.microsoft.com/support first ... else ... email me and i will send you the...

use the installed wang image software that comes with windows. There used to be a good help file with the software as well. Have a look. regards ciaran ciaran ciaranr@albany.jrc.net.au

Just a long shot, but ... have you tried the timer function? ciaran ciaranr@albany.jrc.net.au

Microsoft provides a subset of ADO called ADOX that will do all this for you. Search the Microsoft site (can't remember now where it is!) and you will find a volumous page of descriptions and examples. Easy to use and worth the time learning. This will then enable you, of course, to update a...

mavors I can see quite clearly why you would want to modify the query in VB Code if, and only if, you are inexperienced in adcmdtext recordset.open command strings. Try something different. If the system that you are using runs under VB on an access database, get use to using either stored...

look at ADOX and its capabilities. search in msdn.microsoft.com for help on this matter. Basically utilizing ADOX (a set of ADO) will achieve your goals. there is a great article at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/techart/daotoadoupdate_topic6.htm good luck ciaran ciaranr@albany.jrc.net.au

My problem was similar to yours except that I wanted to send raw data to a dot matrix printer on a network. Whilst setting up a printer as a dot matrix 9pin was an option a simple work around is to determine the network printers location using printer.port (will show \\blahh\blah) etc and then...

You must install DCOMM 95/98 in the destination machine prior to using certain active-x components. DCOMM is on your vb6 installation disk. <p>ciaran<br><a href=mailto:ciaranr@albany.jrc.net.au>ciaranr@albany.jrc.net.au</a><br><a href= > </a><br>

An answer to my own problem. Microsoft has registered this as a bug and advises that we do not look for a key up when an sstab has the focus. Thank you Mr Gates! The details of this can be seen in Q149273.<br>Thank God I'm not going mad!!! <p>ciaran<br><a...

Has anyone come across a situation where a key is pressed with an sstab having the focus and the keypress is registered TWICE? Whilst, at first glance, this may seem to be a programming bug, step debug of the form's key-up event clearly shows the event is fired twice. it is not fired twice when...

Easy fix. If you look in the setup list of your application package you will notice that one of your ocx registration lines looks slightly different.<br>instead of, say<br>File14=@MSHFLXGD.OCX,$(WinSysPath),$(DLLSelfRegister),$(Shared),5/7/99 12:00:00 AM,438800,6.0.84.18<br>it will...
