Visual Basic 6 is a different language from any version of VB.Net. However, the transition should not be hard at all. Just Google for differences between VB6 and VB.Net and you'll find lots of sites, such as this[^] one.

Quit, oh sorry I thought you were STARTING a new project in VB6. The company really needs to look into a rewrite of the application. Support resources for a language that has not been supported for 6+ years are obviously getting thin on the ground, also training resources will be fast dissapearing other than the net.

Am sorry to hear that your Company still wants you to Support vb6, but realy its true(They have to rewrite the Application to .NET), vb.net and Vb6 are different Animals. But it shouldnt be a hard thing, when you get stuck you can just Google.

Hi,
How to set Control Panel's Language settings (Regional and Language Options)from VB Application. When I change the Language Option to Swedish Language, I want to Show those date Formats in all the Forms of the Application.
I am using the VB 6.0.
Through Shell command i am able to access the code but not able to proceed ahead.
Help in this regard is highly appreciated.
Regards
Bhuvanesh

Hi,
most control panel stuff should be only be manipulated interactively by the user, and not be
modified by a program. What would happen if different programs started to set different values
for the same system properties?
I really don't know how to change system settings programmatically either.
I do know how to tell an app to use specific settings tho:
- you can specify date, time, currency formats explicitly every time you need them (say in ToString)
using one of the method overloads
- you can specify an overall Culture for a thread (see Thread.CurrentCulture)
- AFAIK you can't specify it for the entire app (Application.CurrentCulture works on a thread too).
Hope this helps.

Dear Gurus,
I am trying to write an application to manipulate Publisher 2003 usign VB 2008.
Please find below my calling code in the module,
Module Module1
Declare Function GetCusorPos Lib "user32" Alias "GetCursorPos" (ByVal lppoint As Pnt) As Boolean
End Module
and here the declaration of structure Pnt,
Public Structure Pnt
Dim Ptx As Integer
Dim Pty As Integer
End Structure
The actual lines of calling code
' Stoploop declared as boolean at beginning
Dim Po As Pnt
Po = New Pnt
StopLoop = True
While StopLoop
GetCusorPos(Po)
tbMouseX.Text = Po.Ptx
tbMouseY.Text = Po.Pty
System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents()
End While
actually there are two textboxes which will receive the input.
The error is
Initially, cannot find an entry point in DLL
Later, the values of Ptx and Pty are zero.
Please guide me what i have done wrong and for the past two days i am searching on and on... Thanks in advance.

Hi,
there are several problems here:
- the method you want is called GetCursorPos, not GetCusorPos;
that is good enough a reason why it can't be found
- GetCursorPos needs a single argument: the pointer to a structure of type POINT
so:
1) your declare statement is wrong; it needs the ByRef keyword
2) your GetCursorPos invocation is wrong; you passed a value (i.e. a copy of the current content of your struct).
Hope this helps.

Dear Luc Pattyn
Many thanks, the problem is solved.
I initially put getcursorpos, but later i inadvertently made a typo.
The real thing is using Byref instead of Byval.
Also can you kindly answer one more thing, is there any other way to access APIs without messing up with names and byref, byval etc., please guide me.

You'll need to be more descriptive. Every memory card I've ever wanted to read has been accessible through a drive letter.

Firstly before you Post, Google
Secondly VB6 is Dead and Buried, why would wanna punish your self by still learning anything in vb6 style. try any of the .NET Languages.
http://www.google.co.za/search?hl=en&q=how+smtp+used+in+vb+6.0+&btnG=Google+Search&meta=[^]
Next time you must google before you ask someone who a thing is done

I need to pass a variable from one procedure to another in visual basic, can anyone help me by sending me a small example
|
|

What Version of Vb are you using (Hope not vb6), because i have no plan in helping you if you still use that(vb6 is dead). Explain Exacly what you want and by showing us what have you done so far, lets see your code or you Procedure.

Just because a language is no longer supported by its maker does not mean it is dead. A language is "dead" when no one uses it anymore. There are plenty of legacy applications written in Visual Basic 6 that I'm sure will need to be updated in the years to come.
Private Sub A (ByVal Param As String)
' Do something with Param
End Sub
To pass it, call A("string").

Hi
Private Sub Month_Click()
Worksheets(SetMonth).Range("M1").Select
Count6 = 0
Do
Count6 = Count6 + 1
ActiveCell.Value = "0"
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
Loop Until Count6 = Count5
need to pass Count6 to Procedure1
Sub Procedure1()
SetMonth = "August"
Count7 = 0
Do
Worksheets(SetMonth).Range("M1").Select
Bill1 = Application.InputBox("Enter July Amount?")
ActiveCell.Value = Bill1
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
Count7 = Count7 + 1
Loop Until Count7 = Count6
Worksheets(SetMonth).Range("A:K").Select
Worksheets(SetMonth).Columns("A:K").AutoFit
End Sub
Does this mean then that I change the following or am I misunderstanding, its been a while since I wrote visual basic script:
Private Sub Month_Click(ByVal Count6 As String)
and
Sub Procedure1(Count6 As String)
|
|
|
|
|
No, I wrote that as VB.Net. For VBScript make it Sub Procedure1(variablename). Look for the Passing Variables into a Subroutine section on VBScript in a Nutshell[^].
