Knowing witch button was pressed

[davidmcolaco]

Hi,

I have several forms with buttons that redirect to another form.
Is there a way to know witch button was pressed at last so I can know from witch form was redirected.

Thanks

Ok. I got the idea.

There is a strange thing happening.
I defined a variable called Botao as public and then when I click a button I give her the value 1 and then redirect to another form. But when I arrive the other form, he already lost the value, because I use a msgbox to check and it's without value.

What's the problem of it?

Thanks.

Have you tried to define the public variable in a module?

 

[davidmcolaco]

Yes.. I already tried that but it's the same.

If declare a global variable in a module. g_Button. Then when each button is pressed assign the variable a value. Should be that simple.

You might want to set a "break when value changes" watch for your global variable. You may find that you're actually changing it in an event that you don't realize is firing.

It's done. It's already working fine. Thanks for the help.

I know you have it working, but did you try this:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Call WhatWasPressed(Me)
End Sub

Public Sub WhatWasPressed(MyForm As Form)

MsgBox MyForm.Name & " - " & MyForm.ActiveControl.Caption & " - " & MyForm.ActiveControl.Name

End Sub
