The End statement
|
| |
I've been using the following in startup.bas in various apps, no
problem. Then this morning, I ran the app side-by-side (using
manifest) on a test PC (XP) and when I tried to run more than one
instance, I got the critical stop.wav sound and I didn't see the
MsgBox.
Is using End a bad idea?... more »

Folder \ File Name Convention
|
| |
My archive app creates folder names and file names based on the process so I can see at a glance how the folder and/or file was created. e.g. Zip type, encryption etc.
