Hi johnwm, thank you for your thread it linked to just what I was looking for, I appologise if it appears that I have not responded to previous replies, I thought I had always left an acknowledgement post to any one who had spared the time to reply to any of my questions all of which were...

I am programming a machine that has to cut variable lengths from roll's of material, my program has got to calculate the best fit from these roll's, ie: The rolls of material are 6.2M long and an order for 5 * 2.4M 7 * 1.2M 3 * 1.86M I need to calculate the best way to cut these from the...

This is probably a silly question but my knowledge on networking is limited, how do I access a computer within an external network, ie; my work computer sits on a network which has a common internet ip, so all 30 computers are seen over the internet as the same, but each computer has a unique ip...

Thanks for the reply but the problem I have is with the ****savesetting*** hkey,path,myarray I can't find a Reg save for variants, ony strings, bytes etc, and I cant convert my defined array into a string.

You can disable the start button itself by using Hidestart routine, but this only stops the user from using the start button with a mouse, if they use the windows start key of their keyboards they will get access as normal.

Looking for assistance in storing an array into the registry, eg: Dim myarray(25) as Variant for i = 1 to 20 myarray(i)=i*3 next ****savesetting*** hkey,path,myarray this isnt actual code only an example of what i am trying to achieve, without having to save each element of the array...

Thanks for the benefit of doubt and the information.

Cajun Centurion - I do read other posts, and when I have enough knowledge to be able to help others, I do and will. I submit to forums on other sites, about different programming languages, and help people who have less knowledge than myself, what goes around ... I am already using...

I have got a dynamic array which reads Tags and strings in from a .ini file, How can I read the "Array" Id back only knowing the string, ie: dim tag$(3) tag$(1)="ONE" tag$(2)="TWO" tag$(3)="THREE" "THREE"= ???? I want to read back 3 here. At...

thanks johnwm, I had forgotten that on my previous calc I had converted to degrees, and therefore needed to convert back to Rad's before moving to my next calc. Problem sorted.. thanks to all who responded. Adam

Ok, why does this happen & what do I do to get the right result? I am trying to find Sin(70.4170)in degree's The answer is 0.9421569 degrees. My Vb6 gives me 0.96409144 Radians which when I multiply by the radians to degrees formula 180/pi (57.2957)gives me a silly figure of 55.23 degree's...

Probably an easy question, but how do I get multiple workgroups on my laptop running Xp, so that I can connect too, one of the several locations I work from, each hosting under different workgroup names? Each time I connect to a different Network it overwrites my existing settings. I have...

Not Really, this is the problem I am running a large machine which is constantly monitoring a dll for its inputs , and the machine reacts to the state of these, if I load up one of my user interfaces, during the time it takes to update the graphic objects, the io routine has missed potential...

I want to run a standard.exe and reference it to an Activex.exe and pass information between them, but after 3 days of trawling through faq's I can't find any how too's, there is a lot of info on control events etc: can anyone direct me to a piece of sample code that shows the basics of how to...

I am not using the redraw command but the form is redrawing as a product of displaying it or making it visible.
