    User pathnames during installation

    What if the user moves that file into another folder? Then there would be another \Folder before \Text.txt. How can I account for that?

    User pathnames during installation

    You know what, I think that's exactly how it works. I just tested it on my computer and it works. Thanks.

    User pathnames during installation

    Still, how am I going to be able to say Ineed to open a certain file in that app's path. Do I just write: PATH=App.Path Open PATH+"Text.txt" ???

    User pathnames during installation

    I just grouped together a Yahtzee program for installation. Everything worked except for one little problem I KNOW I'll run in to. In my code, there is a statement that opens such and such a file and I have pictures (which are called into use, also) from my c-drive on my form. When I put it...

    How do I highlight all info in a text box when Shift + Tab is pressed?

    Why couldn't you just let the user push Ctrl + A. Doesn't that work. I know that is default for "Select All" in most other programs.

    Installing Personal Program

    I just wrote a very detailed Yahtzee game and I was wondering how I can put it on a disk (a floppy can even hold it) and make it to where the person can install it onto their computer. I've tried running my exe of the file on computers without vb6 and it says they don't have the .dll files...

    a program delete himself?

    That's a good idea, because I ran an exe with that code to delete itself and it said that same error 75.

    a program delete himself?

    Hey, that's cool. I didn't know something as simple as Kill() is located in VB. I think I know what your problem is cyberwolf14. When I did it the first time, I just used another vb project that I didn't want and it said the same thing. I think you can only use exe files under kill(), as...

    Saving Values Over TIme

    Thanks. I figured it had to do with saving it in another type of file, but I wasn't sure. Do you have any suggestions as to how I should write the code? In other words, I'm not real familiar with saving & then checking to see if it's different.

    Saving Values Over TIme

    I'm trying to finish a Yahtzee program and I want to add a high score list. When I compile the program into an exe, what kind of code can I use to say that such and such value be saved throughout the next time you run the program (that way when they run the program again it will still be there).

    Random Number Generator

    I am writing a program that simulates the card game "War". I have most of it written, but I am stuck at "shuffling" the cards. I've already created an array that has all 52 cards, and I have an array set up to take in those cards randomly. Here's my problem: I'm using a...
