I found it!! An unused one was buring under a frame....had to drag all these frames around to look.

Is there a better way---a search function to do the looking? This way seemed rather ridiculous

Thanks, I got rid of the .visible= false, now much better!!

So how to fix? I do not want the frames to go away forever. I just wanthem to move on the main form.

Hello:

the code is as given below. The frames are indexed frames.



Private Sub FrameProto_MouseDown(Index As Integer, Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
mX = X...

I've been using the drag method described above (ignoring the fact that when you drag you see an outline)...but what I ran into (er, just noticed) is that if you drag one almost under the another it...

Thanks Wof--your ideas are always top-shelf.

As an additional twist, do you think it is possible to have an incoming string select a particular variable? Probably not, from what I've seen.

I got it...after I pasted the RTB into a frame I forgot to revise my coordinate system (such as top) so that they referenced the frame instead of the form. Moving down 7000 on a large form is one...

NO THE RTB IS PASTED INTO THE FRAME as I mentioned above...I did go back & double check---if you drag the frame, the RTB comes along for the ride.

I have an RTB (rich text box), rtbMyMessage pasted into a frame frmAllData...all is fine...except when I change the frame size in software (using .top & .height to increase the frame size on both the...

WOW---that is quite an impressive demo...thanks for the great ideas...there seems to be so many obscure and hidden functions to work with...not sure how you run across all this...I guess....

Wiz bang--thanks, but your suggestion is sort of the reverse of what I want===I need to later on UPDATE the variable value (being banana, apple, etc) based on previously slecting which of the...

WOF:

I took your thoughts and came up with the following (the frame is intialized to dragMode=Manual)
This works very well....EXCEPT you have to move the frame a large distance before the form...

If I turn on the Frame Drag mode property to automatic it does let me drag the frame around during run, but when I let go it goes back to where it was...so it seems like it almost does it!

Is it possible to allow frames on a main form to be dragged around (repositioned) on the main form by the user during the program operation (runtime?)

What is the option needed to allow this...

I really need to have a variable or some function hold the name of the variable (apple, banana, etc) so that I can do some processing on it much later in the program. There is some decision logic...

There is a simple way to refer to the variable name rather than then variable value, but I can't remember or locate how to do it. I forget the term, somthing like convert the name to a string?
