I am a high school student. I am doing a final project for my computer programming class. I would like to know how to make a screen saver, preferably with motion! If anyone could help I would be greatly appreciative.
 
ummm...does it have to be VB? I have a QB4.5 screen-saver type prog on my computer here (I *think* I still have it, that is)....has a big, spinning, square in the middle of the screen; let me know if that would help & I'll send you my source code if I can find it.<br>

First of all, make your screen saver(standard EXE project) and when done you have to make procedures for all the controls on your project with Mousemove(keyascii as integer). For Example:<br>
<br>
Private Sub Image1_Mousemove(keyascii as integer)<br>

End<br>
End Sub<br>
<br>
You must also do this for the form itself.<br>
Next go to the project menu and then the Project Properties. Go to make and in the title box put SCRNSAVE: {The name of your screensaver}. Then compile it in the windows directory but as an .scr file.<br>

Hope this helps.<br>
