Is the only way to make multiple instructions...

[Daniel_Christie]

What is the way to make multiple instructions happen in order, from a Command1_Click()?

I was earlier suggested that I use a timer, yet Im not so sure that, that is proper. What would YOU do to have three instructions take place in ORDER, after a command1_click()?
(It's got to be in order not all at once.)

Many thank you's to ya,

UUHmmmmmmm.............

Private Sub Do_Something1()
    ' do something
End Sub
Private Sub Do_Something2()
    ' do something
End Sub
Private Sub Do_Something3()
    ' do something
End Sub

Private Sub cmdGoDoSomething_Click()
    Call Do_Something1
    Call Do_Something2
    Call Do_Something3
End Sub

Maybe I don't understand what you ask... but this code runs 3 functions when you click the cmd button...

I also saw your previous post and I don't know why you say that you have things happen "all at once". Normal Vb is single-threaded. What that means is that it's not possible for more than one thing to happen at the same time. If you have for example the following three lines of code in your Command1_Click event...

Private Sub Command1_Click()

    Dim intMyVal As Integer
    
    intMyVal = 3
    intMyVal = intMyVal * intMyVal
    MsgBox intMyVal
    
End Sub

..."9" will be displayed, and that can only happen if the lines are executed in order. If you want more help, please post the code that you are having a problem with, and describe why you think the lines are not being executed in order.
