problem with function[SOLVED]
I've got this code in an module:
VB Code:
Public Function GetScreenPixels(Optional Dimension As Integer, Optional MinusForm As Form)
If Not MinusForm Is Nothing Then 'Get maximum position for form
If Dimension = 1 Then 'Y
GetScreenPixels = (Screen.Height - MinusForm.Height) / Screen.TwipsPerPixelY
Else 'X
GetScreenPixels = (Screen.Width - MinusForm.Width) / Screen.TwipsPerPixelX
End If
Else 'Get screen size in pixels
If Dimension = 1 Then 'Y
GetScreenPixels = Screen.Height / Screen.TwipsPerPixelY
Else 'X
GetScreenPixels = Screen.Width / Screen.TwipsPerPixelX
End If
End If
End Function
The function is for returning the users screen width and height in pixels. however, when i use this code to call it;
VB Code:
Private Sub txtPosX_LostFocus()
On Error GoTo Error
'Allow form to edit values
If auto_change = True Then Exit Sub
If txtPosX.Text > GetScreenPixels(0) Then
MsgBox ("Outside screen!")
txtPosX.Text = GetScreenPixels(0, frmMain)
End If
Exit Sub
Error:
MsgBox ("Only numbers are allowed as window positions!")
txtPosX.Text = 0
End Sub
Private Sub txtPosY_LostFocus()
On Error GoTo Error
'Allow form to edit values
If auto_change = True Then Exit Sub
If txtPosY.Text > GetScreenPixels(1) Then
MsgBox ("Outside screen!")
txtPosY.Text = GetScreenPixels(1, frmMain)
End If
Exit Sub
Error:
MsgBox ("Only numbers are allowed as window positions!")
txtPosY.Text = 0
End Sub
It doesn't work. My resolotion is 1280x1024. When changing the txtPosX text to a number which is more than 1, i get "Outside screen!". changing txtPosY doesn't work either, only numbers below 1 are accepted.
Does anyone have a solution to this?
