A syntax question

I am reading some sample code, can somebody tell me what the two : mean in the following code?

Private Sub cboAddressList_Click()
NewAddress = Ports(cboAddressList.ListIndex)
If NewAddress <> Address Then
Address = NewAddress:
MsgBox "New Port Selected --- " + cboAddressList.Text + Chr(13) + Chr(10):
End If
End Sub

Nothing, really. It just tells vb that it's the end of the line. That way, you cold say:

Code:

---


If (dog = mammal) And (cat = mammal) Then
    dog = cat
    Debug.Print "Dogs are cats!"
End If

'and

If (dog = mammal) And (cat = mammal) Then: dog = cat: Debug.Print "Dogs are cats!": End If

---

and both would be exactly the same.

Thanks. rOach.

no problem.

I think the author of the sample code is a C/C++ or Delphi coder. Delphi and C++ code ends with ;

Dunno.
