I have a folder on a local machine that has the access security
settings set in Windows so that only the administrator can perform
write or create operations on the folder. Everyone else is given read
only access to the folder.

I have 2 VB6 programs I have written and want to find some way for the
programs to communicate data to each other while they are both
running.  For instance when an event fires in program "A" it sends
information to program "B" that would run a subroutine in program 'B."

I created a text box labeled txtText1.
The text box has a sample of text within.
The Enabled property is set to False and the Multiline property set to True.
I have four option buttons set within a frame labeled fra1.

I would like to enable my users to search text using complex search
patterns that include quotes, parens, "and", and "or".  I'm using VB6
(not VBScript).  Is there a DLL or such out there that does this?
TIA,

I just have one quick question...  What is the latest MSDN collection that
works with VB6?
Thanks,

I know it is late in the game for VB6 questions/bugs. However, I am having to
use VB6 for a particular client and I noticed that in the design environment,

I have seen something strange on a customer's computer.
It is a P4 3 GHz with 512 MB Ram running on a Win2K SP3

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I'm dumping a bunch of data from an array into a text box.  How can (if it's
possible) I change the appearance of certain lines in order to present a
better display as I iterate through the array? i.e. I want certain lines to
