Ummm the cell network your connected to will dictate if u use GSM or not... could look for a WCDMA cell network but i doubt u will be able to tell the difference.

Amazing...that really did the job. Thanks friend! I really appreciate that :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup: Aim small, miss small

You can't "imports" the .NET Framework libraries in VB6.. You can however, make a small executable that sends the file in VB.NET (download the VB.NET Express IDE, it's for free) and launch this process from VB6 whenever you need to send a mail :) I are troll :)

One thing to remember is that a 50mm lens on most DSLRs is equivalent to a 80mm on a full-frame camera, because of the smaller APC sensor. The 50mm makes a fine portrait lens for full-body standing shots, giving about a 6' field of view at 15' on an APC body. That same lens is about 9' FoV at 15' on a full-frame body. And, yes, I will cite another Ken Rockwell page on portraiture lenses[^]. I shoot quite a bit with the kit lens that comes with the Canon 40D -- the 28-135 IS -- and find that even if I have a long distance from camera to subjects, I'm still doing a lot of my shots at the short end of the zoom. I did a group shot of about 10 people, with 5 standing behind a love-seat and the rest sitting on it, from at least 15 feet away, and if I'd had a 50 for the widest, I'd have been chopping people off left and right... As another poster commented, just watch out for distortion on the wide end of the zooms. If possible try to shoot something with straight lines (brick walls, for instance) straight on to see how the lens handles barrel and pincushion distortion. Some of that can be correct after the fact, but it all depends on how much time you want to spend post-processing your shots.

Hey thanks! Kind of a noobish question there but thanks for the aid. Incidentally I wasn't matching the items to the recordset as you said. Got used to vb.net DB manipulation I forgot it was different here in VB6. Agin thanks for the help :-D Aim small, miss small

Oh... :laugh: My apologies for the novice post. Thanks for the help Sir! Works perfectly now :-D Aim small, miss small

That just changed my views. :-D Got the code and it looks something like this: Dim aTest(1 To 2) As Variant Dim bTest(1 To 1) As Variant aTest(1) = 1 aTest(2) = 2 bTest(1) = aTest MsgBox bTest(1)(1) MsgBox bTest(1)(2) ...for future reference. ;) Thanks again for the help, not to mention the enlightenment :laugh: Aim small, miss small

This forum never ceases to amaze me. Works perfectly. Many thanks for the help friend! :-D Aim small, miss small

That really works for me. And for the record I did try to google though I searched for "VB6+Label control+clickable" :^) Yeah, I know...quite stupid :rolleyes: Aim small, miss small

IIRC, D80 and above. If you look at this[^, it shows & tells you why those lenses don't auto-focus with the D40X and what to look for (i.e. the focus drive pin coming through the lens ring).

Um... :doh: so where's the site? :laugh: Aim small, miss small

They all have, but I'd suggest shelling out the extra cash for D80. The D80 has a much better viewfinder magnification and bigger LCD. Vital IMO: my brother used to have a D50, which has a similar viewfinder to the D70, and framing a shot was a woeful experience because everything was too small. BTW, I used to have a Pentax ME Super, which has an absolutely massive viewfinder, lovely! My brother now has the D80 and loves it.

Ahh...that explains why I can't find that darn paging option. So it has to be done the long way...Many thanks friend! :-D Aim small, miss small

Have you done the flickr.com search by camera? I.E. search for all photos by camera model and see samples of a wide variety of photos taken with each model?
