Hi and welcome to the VBForums.

This is a place for everyone that uses VB regardless of their level of knowledge and if they use it professionally or are just hobby programmers.

If you like to get some example code to look at and learn from we do have our CodeBank and UtilityBank forums in which people post source code that either do some small thing that you can use within your own application or full utility applications. In those forums you'll also find a lot of small tutorials with example code that you can follow. Check them out.

Since you're new I just want to mention that we moderate the first few posts you do so don't be surprised if you post a question and it doesn't show up immediately, this is just to seed out people that sign-up just to spam us. This chit-chat forum is mainly for fun and almost everything goes on in here, however posts you make here does not register in your post count. If you look at your current post count it still reads as 0 posts. So don't just post in here because then you will never get out of the moderator queue.

If you happen to post something in the wrong forum and some member points this fact out to you then don't be alarmed, we all make mistakes. However, in that case click on the small report icon (in the current version of this forum it's a small black triangle icon under your user name) and ask for the thread to be moved. Please do not go to the correct forum and post the same question again, we prefer to simply move the thread instead of having duplicate threads in different forums.

A good tip to get the most replies to any question you might have, is to create a thread with a useful title and describe your problem as good as you can. It's always helpful if you post the code that you've tried to use. When posting code please insert them into [code] and [/code] tags, that way all formatting (such as indentation) are preserved which makes it a lot easier to read.

Good luck!
