How do I.....

I want several instructions to take place in order and all starting from one Command1_Click().

Example:

Command1_Click()
Instruction1
Instruction2
Instruction3
End Sub

Only when I do this, "Instruction1", "Instruction2", and "Instruction3" are not executing in order, instead they seem to be happening all at once. How should I code this, to make each instruction hapen in exact order?

P.S. I also used:
IF a or b or c or d or e or f Then
Instructions
End IF

What would be a more efficient way to write this? Would it be:
If a to f then
Instructions
End If

Thanks,
Daniel Christie

i have 2 ways for ya one way is to

dim happy as integer

Private Sub Form_Load()
timer1.interval = 65
End Sub
private sub command1_Click()
timer1.enabled = true
a = 0
end if

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
a = a + 1
if a = 20 then
instrcutions1
end if
if a = 40 then
instructions2
end if
if a = 60 then
instructions3
timer1.enabled = false
a = 0
end if
End Sub

the second way is to take out the option explicit and put this in there

Sub Timeout(duration)
StartTime = Timer
Do While Timer - StartTime < duration: DoEvents
Loop
End Sub

Private sub command1_click()
instructions1
timeout(10)
instructions2
timeout(10)
instructions3
end sub

i don't know how to get that
Sub Timeout(duration)
StartTime = Timer
Do While Timer - StartTime < duration: DoEvents
Loop
End Sub
to work unless you take out the option explicit. Well i hope this helps
