Maybe someone can answer this???I'll try to word this so it makes sense. I wrote some
code yesterday and it actually worked ,heheh
Then i decided i needed two more text boxes
and needed to change the code abit to work
in conjuction with the textboxes
eg txtTotal,then added txtsubtotal and txtGst
then proceded to try and make the code work with the new textboxes, at that time I couldn't figure out how to make it work . then deleted the two textboxes because i had the code screwed up badly and redid the code back to the original code that worked. arrg
it kept giving me the wrong values and i know
for fact that it was the same code i had before i added the new textboxes. played with it for a hour or two. even compared it to the same code that i had saved on a floppy disc
I deleted the entire sub routine and replaced it with the same sub routine that was saved on the floppy disc but this time when i tested the program the code worked fine without any wrong values showing up.This has happened to me once before also. any ideas
anybody or am i in the TWILIGHT ZONE!!!!!

Jessie,

What version of windows, we came across the same thing in 95b and 98. It would appear that the project is held somewhere in memory and the memory version over-rides the one on disk.

You can force the same thing if you load a vb app over an existing app. We have found that you need to a) delete the app, b) clear it from the recycle bin to avoid the problem

I have win 98 and the same thing keeps happening once and again!

You delete a command button, then reload it and it comes with old previous code. It is particularly annoying if a long time has ellapsed since deletion, because you no longer remember what that control did!

Hello,
I like to buy stock market and look their price in the day. I have created a program which refresh the web site which have the stock share price every one minute. I have used shell function to do that. The problem is the prices are in the end of the page but when every my program refresh that page it goes at the top of the page which I have to scroll down then to see the prices. Is there any way to bring the page to it original position after been refreshed? I don't know any thing about API but if you think that is the only way and you know some good web site that I can learn about this method please tell me. Up to now any web site I have get into did not had enough information to learn the api. Please help me I really need to figure this out.

Thanks in advance
