Unable to change properties on design time!

[Pericoloso]

In my project I can not change the value of my properties on design time. As you can see on the lowercase 'n' in the procedure below.

What could be the possible cause of this weirdness?!

Private Sub Command1_Click()
With Command1
.name = "Hello!"
End With
End Sub

Greetings,

Bart.

Hi,

the .name property is read only at runtime (in your case it is 'command1'). .name is used to refeer to the control (as you do 'Private Sub Command1_Click()').
Maybe your are looking for the .caption property, which sets the text shown on the button?

Private Sub Command1_Click()
With Command1
.Caption = "Hello!"
End With
End Sub

I see what you mean. But the problem is the same with any of the properties. I am pretty familier with programming and I have asked experienced programmers in my company for their advise. This is a very strange problem.

I presume the problem is situated in the project file.

Thanx for your attention!
