But in order to do this you need to include a reference to the control from the components menu. This is called early-binding and can disasterous for your programs if you're utilizing a COM object that frequently changes interfaces. The late-binding technique requires only the ProgID of the object as listed under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT in your registry.

Working with control arrays in VB3 was frustrating, but with VB4 you can pass a control array as an argument to a function. Simply specify the parameter type as Variant:

This code successfully compiles VBScript code into a .VBS which acts as an .EXE! It has many functions such as "Run" and "Last Run", along with the usual "New", "Open", and "Save" abilites! If you know VBScript (it is almost exactly the same as Visual Basic) then this program will be a temendous help. VOTE FOR THIS!!

This tutorial (in Microsoft Office .doc format) teaches some basic things about making a good app in Visual Basic, and about several basic functions, plus some stuff on data types. You'll learn lots of things to help you become a better programmer.

The first line of the DAS.INI file are boolean, You set what days of the week a task needs to be run, and assign a File to run, The Sample file included is a .BAT file.

You can replace the Shell() function with AppActivate() and SendKeys() if you want to advance the program. I used it to launch an AS400 macro.

Easily log events. Log errors by passing the ERR object.

I posted this code yesterday but I had comments on it and emails sent directly to me from my web site asking how to use it. Guess that is the problem when you only post the sub routine. So, here is the code again, but this time with a demo project. This uses the API to simulate the minimize effect you see of a form shrinking to the taskbar, but with this code you can shrink it to any place you want, like itself to show it imploding, or the tray, or to the mouse.
