Quick VB Question

[crazymotorbik...]

Hey,

Just a quick VB6 Question....

When closing a form using the x button how do you catch this?

I'm guessing its fairly straight forward. I used to know but haven't touched VB in many years.

Cheers,
Shaun.

Hi

Not touched VB6 in 2.5 years, but a quick look and I found this:-

My bet would be:
Double click on the top of the drawing window, in the bit you'd normally drag a window about by. The code editor should then pop up, in the top right hand side there will be different event's pick the window close one and slap the code in that function.

It's one of the events listed for the window object. So, double click anywhere on the window. You will automatically go to the Load event, so instead select the Exit event (or what ever it's called) at the top right of the code window from what I can remember.

Ah, I miss VB6.

Hey,

Thanks very much

Karma all round.

Must admit i do enjoy VB!

Cheers,

If you enjoy VB, look into C# its basically the same but alot more powerful and portable.

Hi

I am the same. I like php. I would prefer it if it had variable types and declares, and also if you could easily play around with pointers (although gets bad when you get it wrong). Also it can be a bit inconsistent with the orders of parameters to functions.

I am not that keen on object orientated programming. I think it has a place when you have a reasonably size distinct object, but treating strings (for example) as objects is just silly. Written a few I use, to draw graphs and another to draw pie charts.

I do quite like mixing php and Javascript.

That said, I wish I could easily run Javascript on the server and call it from php. I have a Javascript function at the moment that I also need to run on the server, and having 2 versions needing maintaining in different languages is asking for trouble (OK, I could use Ajax, but this function is potentially called for every cell of a very large table, so potentially thousands of Ajax calls when a page is refreshed).

All the best

Is the JavaScript and PHP code for validation? If it is, what I would do is create a kind of parsing engine so that you store the commands of how to validate the data in the database, and your engine spits out JavaScript / executes PHP based on what comes out.

Can be complicated but then you end up maintaining the code in the same place because both sets of code are generated from the same data.

Hi

The db stores strings which say how an element is validated (ie, multiple validation strings for an element). The page has a list of items vertically and a list of tests horizontally, with each resulting cell having a value. Each value is then checked against the validation strings for that test.

The javascript just compares the values with each validation string until it gets a match.

It's horrible enough to read without trying to generate code to evaluate.

All the best
