How do I know if I'm in debug mode or execute mode? 1

[tg2003]

Hi,

I want to send details into a log file only when I'm in debug mode, not when running the EXE.

How?

Thanks in advance!

There are a few way to determine if the program is running under the IDE or as a compiled exe.

A google for 'vb6 iside' turned up this

which seems to cover most of them.

You can also check by using the command arguments.

In VB go to ....
Project
Project Properties
Make
Then set the Command Line Arguments: to,say, DEV

In your code check status by ....
If Command() = "DEV" Then
MsgBox "In Dev"
Else
MsgBox "Running Live"
End If

Also it goes a lot slower!
