I apologize for the brevity of my response -- you can achieve concurrency control using transactions in ADO.NET with the SqlTransaction class (see MSDN[^] for more details). However, the following two examples might be more specific to the issue you are attempting to resolve: MSDN Data Concurrency[^] Data Concurrency Exception Handling[^]

This allows you to select text inside the textbox. By Select I mean highlighted as you do with a mouse by clicking and dragging. 'Fill the text box with some chars textbox1.Text = "ABCDEFGHIJ" 'This line will highlight the first 3 characters 'in the text box textbox1.Select(0,3) It is located in the help here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfsystemwindowsformstextboxbaseclassselecttopic1.asp?frame=true[^] Paul Watson wrote: "At the end of the day it is what you produce that counts, not how many doctorates you have on the wall."

u have to take care of concurrency also if it is a muti-user system ....

Check out the help under System.Diagnostics.Process Here is some code from my head.... Dim myproc As System.Diagnostics.Process myproc = New System.Diagnostics.Process myproc.EnableRaisingEvents = False myproc.Start("notepad.exe") Paul Watson wrote: "At the end of the day it is what you produce that counts, not how many doctorates you have on the wall."

Thanks for the info. It would be nice if you could access the same controls M$ uses. The XP Style password box displays a ballon tip when you turn CAPS Lock on and things like that.

Try looking for examples related to System.Net / System.Net.Sockets Namespaces. I seem to recall that I saw an example of this on DotNetJunkies.com or c-sharpcorner.com; even though the example was in C#, it could be done fairly easily in VB.NET.

I am not sure how to do this if you are referring to something drawn onto the form via GDI.

You found that on Google too hugh? :-D I just had the same issue. Paul Watson wrote: "At the end of the day it is what you produce that counts, not how many doctorates you have on the wall."

Oh boy... Your DB admin will love that :) Just use one table and add a date of entry column. Its soooooo much simpler.

This is in C#: http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/ActiveDirQuery.asp[^] But it should give you a starting point...

Read the VBA help in Office.. Automating Excel in VB6 is very similar to it.

vb6 is not strong in multithreading but you can use an ActiveX EXE to do multithreading (but better to use APIs if you want some synchronization) in .NET multithreading is supported.
