thank you, mumei, yours worked

I already tried something like that from a different site, but it didn't work

[EDIT] New Question:
I want lblPercent to change ForeColor during runti'me.
This is what I have.

Private Sub ti'm3_Ti'mer()
    ti'm2.Enabled = False
    lblMain.Caption = "Starting . . ."
    lblPercent.Caption = "75%"
    lblPercent.ForeColor = ???
    shp1.Visible = True
    shp1.Width = 3615
    ti'm4.Enabled = True
End Sub

I want the ForeColor to be white.
I already tried this.

lblPercent.ForeColor = &H00FFFFFF&

But it changes to:

lblPercent.ForeColor = &HFFFFFF

What should I put and why does it change?

&H00FFFFFF
and
&HFFFFFF
are the same number

the &H means the number is in Hex
and 00FFFFFF = FFFFFF
(in the same way 0001100 = 1100)


anyone with more than 2 ti'mers in your programs should at least look at this si'mple example

it may be a little too complicated for you - if so, just ignore it, but if not it's a great way to handle events

Thanks, but what should I put as the code to change the ForeColor?

[Mumei]

lblPercent.ForeColor = &HFFFFFF

the other one just gets changed to this anyway

it's just a number afterall, you could have put

lblPercent.ForeColor = 16777215
that's just the same thing

Ok, so Im new at working with VB6 and am having to take it in college. Can someone explain in simple english about calculate buttons and the functions that go with them? I understood everything up to that. The prof never explained where she got the function formulas from. Like pulled it out of a magic hat or something.

My mistake. I just saw the thread here and figured I would ask. I suppose I could ask in the other thread though.

Took me a while to find the thread. Thanks for the help x.
