[RESOLVED] help need for creating interface

Hello everybody....

I am very new to VB6 and more over belongs to Mechanical department...
can any one solve my problem?

Code:

---

Sub getMatrix()

    Dim newFile As String
    Dim i As Integer, j As Integer
   
    fHndl = 1
   
    Form1.ofd.Filter = "Text file (*.txt)|*.txt"
    Form1.ofd.ShowSave
    newFile = Form1.ofd.FileName
     
    Open newFile For Output As fHndl
   
    'Write #1, "File = " & swModel.GetPathName
   
    Write #fHndl, "Components Used:::"
    Write #fHndl, ""
    For i = 1 To cnt
        Write #fHndl, " ->" & strPart(i)
    Next i
   
    For i = 1 To cnt - 1
        For j = i + 1 To cnt
            Form2.Label1.Caption = strPart(i) & " - " & strPart(j)
            Form2.Show
        Next j
    Next i

    Close #fHndl
   
    Shell "notepad.exe " & newFile, vbNormalFocus

End Sub

Sub writeMatrix()

    Write #fHndl, "    +x : " & Form2.Text1
    Write #fHndl, "    +y : " & Form2.Text2
    Write #fHndl, "    +z : " & Form2.Text3
    Write #fHndl, "    -x : " & Form2.Text4
    Write #fHndl, "    -y : " & Form2.Text5
    Write #fHndl, "    -z : " & Form2.Text6
   
    Unload Form2

End Sub

---

Here strPart will get some part names from CAD file e.g.- part1, part2, part3, etc..... from that part names I have to form pairs(i am sure about what it called) like {part1, part2}, {part1,part3}, {part2,part3}.....etc.....
and for those pairs generated i have to give(input) six different integer vaalues in the form2..........i couldnt find the mistake in this code.........

pls anyone rectify the problem

I don't think we understand the problem, please be very specific: what is not happening and what should happen. You are not reading the file in the sample code you provided.

Let us know how strPart is declared and if ReDim'd please show us that line too.

Me too... :(

Small suggestions about your code...

Code:

Sub getMatrix()

    Dim newFile As String
    Dim i As Integer, j As Integer
   
    fHndl = FreeFile    '~~~~~> Look Here
   
    Form1.ofd.Filter = "Text file (*.txt)|*.txt"
    Form1.ofd.ShowSave
    newFile = Form1.ofd.FileName
     
    Open newFile For Output As fHndl  '~~~~~> Here, you are writing data to the file. Not inputting into the program. I think, you are using 'getMatrix' to read data from the file. ???
   
    'Write #1, "File = " & swModel.GetPathName
   
    Write #fHndl, "Components Used:::"
    Write #fHndl, ""
    For i = 1 To cnt
        Write #fHndl, " ->" & strPart(i)
    Next i
   
    For i = 1 To cnt - 1
        For j = i + 1 To cnt
            Form2.Label1.Caption = strPart(i) & " - " & strPart(j)
            Form2.Show    '~~~~~> This will load the Form2 for each iteration of the loop. Is it necessary. Why don't you display the form after the loop
        Next j
    Next i

    Close #fHndl
   
    Shell "notepad.exe " & newFile, vbNormalFocus

End Sub

Glad to hear that.. :)

If your problem is solved, please mark the thread as Resolved :wave:

For future reference I cannot see where you have declared cnt. This may be due to my poor eyesight and being a silly old goat but it is a very bad programming practice that will cause you many headaches and probably worse hair loss than I have. You should always use OPTION EXPLICIT in your projects. It will make your life much happier. :)
