hi to all,
             i am using vb6 and access2000. My database table contain
one date filed. I get the data from access query b'coz i am using
format()funciton. But when i connect my vb form with parameters data

I have a class (new to classes by the way) and I'd like to set the
properties to specific data types such as Date or Long.  The problem with
this is that when I don't have a date or don't have a number (where null is
a valid value) I would like to be able to accept that, yet ...

I had used these groups a few times. This time this is not a VB

Working on an app, trying to "decompose" it into objects.

I am in need of sharing a VBP project with another developer, so I figured that VSS6
was the way to go. Installed necessary components on server and files are being

I have an Mobile Web App that I would like to use to display a dataset
returned from a Web Service that I have written.  I need to display multiple
items in multiple columns.  The only control I see that can do this is the
List control but cannot see how to get mulitple columns.  ...

I've subclassed an MDI form. When I run the application in the IDE and
exit the subclassed form the IDE gets trashed.

I'm using a ComponentOne VSFlexgrid in my project and I need to make 1
row in my 3 row grid editable and the other 2 rows static
(non-editable).  I can't seem to find any properties that will allow me

However, Vista does not show up the image in any size higher than 48x48,
 like it does with other apps.  256x256 part of the icon is PNG encoded

Is there a way to resolve an IP address to its domain name using VB6?
