Or you can find on the internet for a specific question, about the thing you need to now that they did.

Thanks everyone for the help, my knowledge of rules behind VB is limited at this time, since I don't work in it day to day, but I will upload the file the forum. It is pretty simple. I know the logic behind it, but I wanted to see how my teacher did certain things.

To download file, change txt to .exe. It was the only way that I could upload it.

If you have visual studio you can pass the exe through the built in debugger (forgot the name) That won show you the VB code..it will show you the BASIC code underlying the VB (line numbers, GOTO's and all) its really kind of neat, and it lets you know what’s wrong with VB. IT's not OO its just basic with a neat Visual wrapper thrown over it to hide the bad code that lies underneath.

JockVSJock, I think your missing a .dll .ocx or module file when you sent that. If you would just tell us exactly what you would like to know I would be more than willing to help you. If unlocking the source is your problem then make sure its not saved to a CD-R because it usually doesn't let you write to those unless you take out the disk and put a clean CD-R in but this shouldn't prevent you from atleast takeing a look at the code though (Thats If you even have the source...)

P.S. Converting your files into .zip format might be easyier for you to send your programs next time.

If you would then we would already knew the source code of Windows (at least Win 3.1, 95...and maybe newer because they had the win.exe) then there wouldn't be fact the chaos with this ****ing M$'s source code. I'm sick with this company. SUPPORT OPEN-SOURCE at least of the Windows.
Thank you.

Sounds so naive.
