    Question

    Hi.. can you please identify some of the common memory
    leaks in Visual Basic programs?

    I have found the one of winsock ctrl in Microsoft's KB.
    I also know how to correctly unload all objects...

    Any other sources?

    Thank you in advance!

    When assigning an object reference to a variable be sure to correctly destroy that object to avoid memory leaks
    Code:
    Set myForm = New Form1
'clearing memory
Set myForm = Nothing
    I am become death, the destroyer of worlds.

    The stop button can be a huge memory leak, same goes for End statement
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
    To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.
