Pop-up login dialog box

[adriian]

Hello,

I am programming in Visual Basic 6.0. I have seen examples of creating a
login form to use for users to type in their username and password, but I
want to accomplish the same thing with a pop-up dialog box instead. How can
I make my program bring up a pop-up login dialog box for a user to type in
username and password? Basically it's I want to create a form with a database that conists of a login box; one login for the user to alter/edit information and the other login user to only be able to look at the details.

Thanks,
Adrian

I'm not sure what you mean by pop-up. You can call the form as Modal so no other forms can be used until it's closed, if that's what you mean.

Hi adriian... Welcome to the forums...

If you are looking for scrolling effects, then try searching in codebank: Click here to search !

Otherwise, like baja said, show the form as modal.
Eg:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Form2.Show vbModal, Me  '~~~ Show Form2 as modal
End Sub

A pop-up dialog IS a form. Just display it like baja_yu said and hide the controlbox, min and max controls and don't allow resizing of the borders.
