    Re: reset program

    U need to make a function to clear there fields
    and then call it wherever u want...but i think there is no any single line code for doing so ... may b u could b able to do it by using
    For i = 1 To form1.textbox.count - 1
    form1.textbox(i).Text = ""
    next i

    ...but for this u need to make control array of the textboxes

    No need for an array when you want to loop through, use the controls collection (you can also use it to make a general clear Sub):

    VB Code:
    1. Private Sub ClearControls()
    2.     Dim ctl As Control
    3.     For Each ctl In Me.Controls
    4.         Select Case True
    5.             Case TypeOf ctl Is TextBox
    6.                 ctl.Text = vbNullString
    7.             Case TypeOf ctl Is ComboBox, TypeOf ctl Is ListBox
    8.                 ctl.Clear
    9.             '
    10.             '
    11.             '
    12.         End Select
    13.     Next ctl
    14. End Sub

    Re: reset program

    There is a way that I do it and have discussed it before but some don't think outside the box. What you can do is design your program so that all your data is is a data class object then just set the object to nothing and re-instanciate it for all data to be cleared.

    Of course you would have to do this at the beginning to code to this standard. But it will work.

    The only way I can think to do this is to unload all your past forms, open up the home form again and type

    (name of home form).refresh
    If, somehow, I help you, please rate the post using the scales icon in the left bar <---- .
