Umm, dun want to sound very stupid but, that link didn't actually tell me how to import the Masked Box ? Hehehe... Sorry for all the bother guys. I just recently migrated from VB6 and even in VB6 I was a very fresh beginner. So VB.net is a bit more complex and all. Hope you guys will bear with me at the moment with my weird questions.

Ok, its ok now. I got it. It is under Microsoft Masked Edit. Apparently my office dun have VB6 installed so I couldn't find it. Thanz for your help anyway you guys, you r great...

Not to be completely pedantic, but this goes especially if you are a beginner.
The language you use, and the ability to comprehend your question, goes a long way to being able to answer you and help you. Therefore, try to avoid words like "Thanz" for thanks and "dun" for don't. Native English speakers will not have much difficulty, but those that have english as a second/thrird/fourth language may well do.

You cant really, but you dont actually need to.
All you need to do is code in the before close event to pop up your own message box then close word from code and suppress Words one from showing (this is an argument in the close method i think).
Try it yourself. If you have any problems i will try to get an example for you.

OK. A simple example for you. All it does is replace words save box with my own.
Private WithEvents oword As Word.Application<br />
Private WithEvents odoc As Word.Document<br />
Private Sub Command1_Click()<br />
<br />
Set oword = New Word.Application<br />
oword.Visible = True<br />
Set odoc = oword.Documents.Open("yourfile.doc")<br />
End Sub<br />
<br />
<br />
Private Sub oword_DocumentBeforeClose(ByVal Doc As Word.Document, Cancel As Boolean)<br />
<br />
If MsgBox("Do you want to save this file?", vbYesNo, "Save") = vbYes Then<br />
oword.Activate ' not required if oword is not visible<br />
odoc.Save<br />
oword.Documents.Close 'If using word 2000 or below i think you need the argument here to not save changes. That will suppress words messagebox but this works fine with word 2003<br />
<br />
oword.Quit<br />
Else<br />
oword.Activate<br />
oword.Documents.Close<br />
oword.Quit<br />
End If<br />
<br />
Set odoc = Nothing<br />
Set oword = Nothing<br />
End Sub

Hi, forum
My application uses MS word 2000 in it, it is used to read the wordfiles and get its content, while reading if the word file is corrupt, the objects throws and error
i am using a error handler to do this, and each time the routine gets stuck in the error i get the
switch to retry message box where in a new instance of word is initiated
and here exactly lies the problem, if i click 20 time on switch 20 instances
of word application are created and i can see 20 winword.exe in the task manager this is some thing annoying to me.
please tell me how do i eliminate this chaos.
If err.Number = -2147023170 Then
Set m_WordServer = Nothing
Set m_WordServer = New Word.Application
ElseIf err.Number = 462 Or err.Number = 429 Then
Set m_WordServer = Nothing
Set m_WordServer = New Word.Application
ElseIf err.Number = -2147417851 Then
Set m_WordServer = Nothing
Set m_WordServer = New Word.Application
ElseIf err.Number = -2147418111 Then
Set m_WordServer = Nothing
Set m_WordServer = New Word.Application
Else
Set m_WordServer = Nothing
Set m_WordServer = New Word.Application
End If
err.Clear

Automation can be a pig if it starts to go wrong because your app will not know the error, it just knows there is an error and needs to know what to do with it. At the same time word wants you to deal with the error that its generated. If your word application instance is not visible the problems are multiplied because you cannot do anything with it.
You could try the following on any error in the routine that handles word
m_Wordserver.active
m_Wordserver.quit
set m_Wordserver=nothing
It may help

Need a little guidance here..
Lets say I make a new project with two forms in it, namely Form1 and Form2.
Form1 is the main form and when I run my program, this is the form that comes up. In it, I make a button and upon pressing a button, it calls up form2. Here is the Command I use.
Dim frmCall as New Form2
frmCall.show()
when I go to form2, I create a button to close this form2 and goes back to form1. And the command in it I use is
Me.Dispose()
My problem is, what command do I put into this button in Form2 to call Form1 Back out.. Any help offered will be greatly appreciated.
|
|

|

Oops, sorry, I put in this command in the button in Form1.
Dim frmCall as New Form2
Me.Hide() ' To hide Form1 from View
frmCall.show()
So basically, what the button in form2 should do is, close Form2 and bring Form1 back to focus... Any help offered will be greatly appreciated.

If Form1 is just hidden ( that is, if you make it not visible instead of closing it ), then you need to just show it again after the call to ShowDialog, your code in Form1 will not execute until ShowDialog ends ( that is, when Form2 is closed ).
If you dispose of Form1, then it is gone, and you need to make a new one, which will not remember anything about what state your first one was left in.

Well, I did attempt to close Form2 but putting in a button and adding the command 'Me.Dispose()' into it. The only thing it does is close my form2 but does not bring my Form1 back out as it is still hidden somewhere. So basically my problem is how to bring the Form1 back out...
|

Like I said, back out from *where* ? Did you hide Form1 ? Did you close it ? Oh - do Form1 and Form2 both define the Accept and Close behaviours for buttons ? If so, a 'feature' ( I regard it as a bug ) in .NET is that if you click abutton for Form2, and Form1 defines a button to return the same DialogResult that the button you clicked has, .NET will push Form1's button, too. So turn those properties to 'None' and always set the DialogResult yourself.
However, the Show method makes a modeless dialog, doesn't it ? So you must have code further down that hides Form1. If you want to hide Form1, you're better using ShowDialog to create a modal dialog, and then you have the entry point to reshow Form1, just after ShowDialog is called.
It might be best if you showed us the entire function where Form2 is created, so we know what's going on.

Just paste the function where you create Form2 into this window, and I'll look at it.
