I have to filter a recordset, based on a string, however some of these
strings contain " ' " (or chr(39) ), for some reason the string in the
recordset removes the chr(39)?
Why is that?

I'm looking for a code wich can open and autostart a MPEG
file.
thanks

I have a VB6 standard exe acting as a client and a VB6 Active Exe acting as
a server.  The server has one public function that returns the servers
current date.  The client calls the server:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;266717

I want to converse a hexadecimal number to a decimal number. With a number
it's simple, if you want to convert E6 for example you do:
&HE6
But what if you want to convert a variable?

How can I read (no drag & drop) selected/highlighted files in Explorer? I

Hi everyone, i have the next problem:
I can load images in a OLE Container in VB6, but now, i
need to write those images in files, ¿wht can i do for?...
Write an OLE Container's image to a BMP File???

I have a program that uses OLE automation with MS WORD.
The way I have been detecting WORD is by intitializing it
in a module and trapping any errors (error means no MS
WORD). This causes false readings if WordPad is installed.

How can I put application on top - set focus on application (do it active)
I lost focus of application when I run from my program another one  and when
then that application gone I need to return focut to mine - do it active or
on top or whatever :))

Hi guys, I'm a newbie in VB, and I'm trying to import some data from an
Excel File into a text file. I know this can be done inside Excel, but I
need a completely automated system.
After looking through pages after pages of MS documentation, they all

It's a well-known fact that if you download certain free programs, many of
them install various ActiveX controls in Internet Explorer which are very
powerful, in the dangerous sense of the word (powerful).
I know that the WebBrowser control is a "shell" for the underlying IE

Does anybody have, (or know where to get), a VB typelib for Internet
Explorer Browser Helper Objects?
Thanks.

contains classes, and a activex control written in VC which is used in vb

user interface similar to Microsoft Outlook w/out
using .NET, but rather using vb 6.
any help is appreciated
