Running outlook with the /cleanviews option seems to have cured this for me.

I have exactly the same issue... although I think I can give further details that may help to narrow down this problem. I have two profiles set up. One for work and one for personal mail. My work profile connects directly to an exchange 2000 server. Outlook never exhibits this problem when...

Hi, I would like to retrieve a comment from a file (i.e. the one you can enter under the summary information in explorer). Is GetDetailsEx the right API to use - has anyone implemented this within Visual Basic? Can I have a few tips please? Quros. Quros on the web. http://quros.ontheweb.com

any clues then?

Hi, Can I return a value from a Visual Basic executable - as I can in a C executable - for trapping errors in a batch script for example? Regards, Quros. http://quros.ontheweb.com

I have done a project similar to this. It wasn't for switching lights on and of - but is was for manipulating high voltage (10,000V DC!). I used VB to write the front end with the MSComm control. From a programmers point of view this control is quite difficult to use - serial comms is really...

Hi, I am using SetWindowPos in an application written in VB which resides at the edge of the screen - much like the start bar - to set the window as Always On Top. This works fine, but one of the controls on the form has a problem - namely the Toolbar control which is in CommonControls 6.0...

After you've added the text, there is a property called SelStart for the text box control which sets the cursor position. Set this to be the same as then length of the text ( use len() ).

It looks to me as though your design is wrong from the start. If you charge 50p for one song, nobody is going to want to use it anyway - so it doesn't matter if it works or not!!!!

Use InStr ("aysajgsDOGkas", "DOG") Also - Get an MSDN CD !!

Excellent - That works well. Thanks for the help. Quros

You could use InStr in your own function to get the position of each space in the string, and then chop out the relevant parts using mid$(). However - the easiest way to do this is to use Split() - which returns a string array - each member of the array is a different component of the original...

Hi, Does anymody know of a file copy method I can use from within VB which will give me some kind of progress? Like explorer does when copying large files, or files over a slow network connection. Any help greatly appreciated. Quros.

You may have referenced an ActiveX control which is not available on that machine. I know this certainly causes hang-ups in the debug environment. Even if the control is not used in the code, if it is referenced and missing, delays can occur as the app scours the registry for the guid of the...

You should be able to manipulate objects on a form from within a class by prefixing the object name with the form name. I have done this many times before. If you use the auto complete stuff, all the objects available should be in that list.

Hi, I would recommend avoiding the input# and print# approach to writing text files, and start using the FileSystemObject included in the Microsoft Scripting runtime You can add a reference to the runtime by going to Project > References and checking Microsoft Scripting Runtime. You the need...

Has anybody tried this combination? I have, and as far as I can see - it just doesn't work. I have downloaded the beta drivers for Win2000 from the old 3dfx web site as well as the latest version of Visual Reality, and while everything would appear to be fine - I just can't get the thing to...

I am sure there is, thanks for the suggestion.

I thought you might say that.

Hi, Does anyone know how on erath I can dynamically register / unregister activeX components from within a piece of VB code, given only the file name. Those guys at microsoft rekon the way to do it is make some function declarations much like API calls, which call the DllRegisterServer and...
