I just know there must be an easy answer to this. It is totally critical for positioning graphical objects. I looked in VB help and searched this forum but found nothing... I know I can use sysinfo.workareaheight to get the height of the desktop less the taskbar height. I am unable to figure...

There should be an award for most bizarre errors, for surely I would win. I spent a whole day pulling my hair out over this, but now I must seek help. Here we go... I have a very simple program that has a form with something like the following: Private Sub someButton_Click begin...

Hi, folks. One of my VB6 applications is doing something very strange. I've been successfully updating an activeX control, Graphics Server, to the latest version in all my apps. I started out, like the others, by replacing all references to the graph control in the project and form files...

Fair warning: this is a complicated one... I am working on making my Win98-compatible application run on XP. The application includes a scrolling graph, which must refresh at a high rate. Since timers don't "count down" while their code is executing, this was a always a problem, as...

I am planning to develop a palm app for remote control of our custom electronics (medical simulator manikins). I don't know whether to use 802.11b or Bluetooth. I see a lot of companies out there making nice chips and EmbeddedVC++ objects/libraries that, via Bluetooth enabled Palm systems...

Can anyone tell me how to use keypress, or some equivalent event, to watch function keys? Yes, the form's keypreview property is true. It works fine for other keys, and help doesn't say that F-keys should work any differently, so I'm very confused. My guess is that F-keys have some kind of...

I need to get the system time, but Time() only returns seconds, and VB help offers no other options. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks much. Devin

Thank you very much for any advice you can give me. I've been pulling my hair out all morning over this. I am observing some very confusing behavior from my timer controls. Let's say I have a timer with an interval of 20ms and it is always enabled. The code associated with the timer event...

Please help a novice. This is simple, but I looked everywhere for the solution and can't find it. I just took over a project. I created some new forms and saved some new versions of existing forms. If I try to move the directory that contains all my source code and then open the project, it...
