Store variables after shutdown

[ALFA117]

It is possible to keep/store information set by the user after my program is ended???

Are you storing it in a database?
If so
Use the recordset.addnew, in the unload form command.
The information would have to be stored somewhere, but not actually in the programs code.

Thanks for your tip, but there´s no other way to store information set by the user?? (My program is already connected to a database, and i don´t want to create another one )

How much data are we talking about... If it isn't much you could prolly use the registry... or maybe not?

Registry or INI file would be a good thing to do (I would recommend Registry)

$0.02

I haven't tried it yet, but just today I was told I would need to use the PropertyBag property of an object or maybe just a form to store stuff that can be accessed the next time you run the app. I'm sure it puts it in the registry.

Try to use this funtion that come with VB

• GetSetting
• SaveSetting

This function is enable you to retrieve your customized data from/to registry.
