this is also what I would do - it is one less thing to worry about then when you are deploying. but I think the question relates to getting info from a text field on a web form embedded in his windows form??.... for which I can't help. sorry papa.

Oh! In my haste I only read half his post. If he needs to get data from a text field in web form this post may be of some help.

SoftWeng, you rule man! Thanks, very helpful code!

Okay, my laser printer started smudging streaks on pages, and I discovered that it was due to a strip of toner that had been already heated but was stuck to one of the paper handling rollers. The stuff is now caked on and hard as a rock. The heated toner has been smudging the sheets. How can I get it off without destroying the printer? How do I remove heated toner from inside my laser printer? Thanking you,

How is that related to VB6, or the title of this post? This belongs in Chit-Chat, or anywhere else but here. You probably need a cleaning kit for your printer. HP sells them, with new rollers and everything you'll need.

Finally there is proof ! You can raise the dead !!!

Our friend just stumbled across the elusive mystery which has baffled VB programmers for years - the dead can be raised

I just want to know how he found the thread

(It may just answer my problem also)

Cheers :)
