Actually, VB Intellisense did not reveal that there was a SetCurrentValue method, so I was using the AddCurrentValue method instead which appears to do the same thing. However, when I typed out SetCurrentValue, it accepted it. Same problem, though. However, I just solved it. On a hunch I...

Actually, it is 1 not 0. You are probably thinking of the API. The RDC appears to be 1-based. And like I said, it doesn't give an error, it just passes NULL to my stored procedure.

VB6, RDC, ODBC, SQL Server This is probably very easy, I'm just new to RDC (been using OCX for years) I have a VERY simple report using ODBC, based on a stored proc with 1 char param. It works fine in the Crystal Designer. In VB6, I add the viewer to a form and add this code: Private Sub...

I've noticed that the text of a disabled command button looks different from a disabled label or textbox. It turns a lighter shade of gray as opposed to a darker, and it gets an etched or sunken look to it. Does anyone know how I can make the text of a label look that way? Or, if the label is...

Hmm, I was afraid that would be the only answer. I can't use End because (a) I hate it and (b) I'm actually just exiting all but the first form. Unfortunately, if I were to call form3 from a proc called by a proc called by a proc called by the form2 command button, then I would have to play...

This might be a tough one. Does anyone know of a way to close a bunch of modal forms without letting them execute any more code? For example, I want to close forms 2 and 3. Form3 is called modally from a command button on form2 (see code below). How do I kill both forms but prevent the...

Heh, unfortunately, SetTimer seems to require an hwnd argument which you only get if you have a form/window, therefore...back to square one. Might as well create a form, drop a timer on it, and load it w/o showing it. Aesthetically repugnant, but that's life. Seems my question has been...

I want to put a timer into a class that has no user interface (i.e. no form to drop the timer object onto). Does anyone know of a simple way to do this? Do I have to use an API call? (if so which?) Thanks, AJ

He meant put those 2 lines at the VERY top of the program (in the General Declaraions section) not in the Form_Load event.

Use the replace function to replace single quotes with two single quotes on strings you wish to add to your SQL statement. Most SQL compilers will treat 2 quotes in a row as one. For example: UPDATE mytable SET myfield = 'isn''t' will set myfield to the value "isn't" Replace...

Here is a weird one that locks up both my program and the IDE. It's VB6. Can anyone explain the behavior described below? (and please, no one say you can't have 2 modal forms at the same time, you can, I do it all the time) 1. Create a DLL project. 2. Add a form, place a command button...
