hi
i was having problems with my project as it was only working correctly when i had breakpoint in it. Then in the forums it said try using debug.print to resolve this problem and it did!!
however when i made the project into an .exe the problem reapeared!!
(the problem is the program trying to recongnise when certain word are displayed in text boxes)

Might it be possible to write a log file from your program.
Since Debug.Print helped you to resolve the problem in code, then maybe a log file might help you when it is compilied.
I also use it to filter out problems I get when a program has problems after being compileid. I always out text in it like I use to make my program readable for others. You know, the green code. Then I also know where the problem is. Mostly there's a way around it.
Good Luck.

hi
i have a log file in my program and have tried executing that but it made no difference!
what the program does is send at commands through comm ports! what i am trying to do is captute from the screen when a device sends back a "Connect" the code i am using is:
Private Sub Look_for_Connect_2()
Static EstConnection_Timer As Long
Dim Look_for_CONNECT As Boolean
Dim Wait As Integer
'look for the CONNECT on Comm 2, only wait for 45 seconds once the number has been dialed
If EstConnection_Timer = 0 Then
EstConnection_Timer = Timer + 30# 'set connecttimer to 45 secs
End If
Do
Look_for_CONNECT = txtTerm.Text Like "*CONNECT*"
DoEvents
Debug.Print "look for connect: " & Look_for_CONNECT
If Look_for_CONNECT = True Then
MsgBox "The phone has connected (establish connection end)"
EstConnection_Connected = True
'Exit Sub ' exit the DO-LOOP
End If
DoEvents
If EstConnection_Timer < Timer Then
MsgBox "Did not receive CONNECT (establish connection)", vbExclamation, "ERROR MESSAGE" 'error message
Else:
Debug.Print "waiting: " & Waitingside_Connected & " EstConnect: " & EstConnection_Connected
If Waitingside_Connected And EstConnection_Connected = True Then
Exit Do
Else: Call Look_for_Connect_1
End If
End If
Loop Until EstConnection_Timer < Timer
Call MSComm1_OnComm
End Sub
however when i make it a .exe it does not go in to the "If Look_for_CONNECT = True Then" part of the code!!
pls help
