Hi Gang. I'm sure I'm missing something simple, but here it is: I have an mdi application with many mdi child forms. On only one form (of the many used), whenever it is loaded, the menu bar across the top of my parent form disappears. When the form is unloaded OR another form is displayed...

Thanks again Craig. I believe the pointer is OK - when I click the combobox it's sitting on the correct Item in the pulldown. I hadn't thought about the refresh.. duh. :) Thanks again buddy.

Thanks guys. Im trying it now!

I have a form with some tabs used for specific entries (sstab). On each of the tabs I have a combox allowing them to choose a specific code whose description is then loaded from a table. When the form itself is loaded and the current Data retrieved, the info is displayed correctly on the...

Hi Linda What a small world! I work for a company similar to yours: I write Appraisal, Asseessment and Tax Collection programs for County Govt, so I KNOW what you're going through! lol I have to agree with Craig, In VB Code, Smaller IS better! I would much rather have a hundred .bas and .cls...

Unusual problem thats vexing. I'm loading a MSflexgrid from a recordset. It's the last thing done in the form's form_Load(). I'm capturing the grid's click event (Selection is set to row) and at that point loading the information from the grid row into a set of textboxes for editing. ALWAYS...

I was doing something similar not long ago. Rather than trying to figure out if the file they wanted was good, I just placed an on error BEFORE the load. Since only good photos will load, and non-graphics will error, this seemed to work okay. Of course the PictureError routine simply told...

Also check for a value larger than 32767... the error returned usually isn't the one that you stated, but you never know.... :) Dave

If you have VB6 Enterprise or VisualStudio Enterprise then Visual Modeler is available to you. It supports reverse engineering and will give you a Visual Representation of your code, objects used, how they relate to other objects, the methods and properties involved, etc... It's actually very...

Hey JerJim! I DO like MechWarrior, but actually the name is from an old Deep Purple album! lol I think Java is an excellent language to study up on. As is C++ and Delphi. Don't misunderstand, I do like VB, but I have a vague distrust of any language that is as platform dependent as VB has...

From your description I would say there is not much reason to up to VB6. It does NOT support inheritance in any shape (one of my main gripes, though VB7/Net, whatever they're calling it now, is supposed to support it. It's due out next month...). VB6's big revision has more to do with ADO and...

Does anyone know of any resources that compare the RAD capabilities of Delphi to Visual Basic? ANy help would be appreciated. Thanks, Dave

I have a recordset created at form_load() from a database table. The recordset contains roughly 30,000 records. Is there anyway to clone/duplicate the recordset? I really don't want to have to read in the 30,000 records again, but there are some manipulations I'd like to do (searches, etc...)...

Hey Tom! I think we're both talking about the same thing. What I've found is using the Set RS to command.execute works BUT it's readonly and forwardonly cursor. And the recordcount property is useless. But this is ONLY on the command.execute. A regular open works fine, and of course youcan...

I can tell you whats going on, but not how to fix it...sorry. The problem is when using a command object.Execute, the default (that CAN'T be changed by the way) is Readonly, ForwardOnly Cursor. You will probably find that the recordcount property also returns a -1, which is a pain since its...
