[VB6] MDI: Controls wont intialize

[Tazo]

Ok..I do like this

Code Select Expand


Dim f as new Form1
f.show

So I changed my addtext function to say like f.rtb1 right? Well It gives me 'Object Required.' same with all controls, including winsock..whats the deal? is there like a IntiliazeControls thing lol

[MyndFyre]

Is this VB.NET?

[Tazo]

Oh sorry, Vb6

[rabbit]

Code Select Expand

Load f

[Tazo]

Code Select Expand


Private Sub mnuAbc_Click()
Dim f As New Form1
f.Show
Load f
End Sub

No luck.

[rabbit]

Load before .Show

[Tazo]

i Tried that, no luck =/
rabbit got AIM

[rabbit]

Yes, but I'm not on.

This is directly out of one of my MDI projects, and it works:

Dim frm As frmController
    Set frm = New frmController
    Load frm

Meh.

[Tazo]

ok so I did

Code Select Expand


Private Sub abc_Click()
    Dim f As Form1
    Set f = New Form1
    Load f
    f.Show
End Sub


Everything, like my addtext function (which says f.Rtb1 for the rtb) says '424: Object Required'. Rabbit can I email you the src and you can tell me whats wrong :/ I've tried everything at this point 
btw: addtext is in a mod and the pbuffer in a cls

Not sure if this'll make a difference, but try:

Code Select Expand


Private Sub abc_Click()
    Dim f As Form
    Set f = New Form1
    Load f
    f.Show
End Sub


[MyndFyre]

Not sure if this'll make a difference, but try:

Code Select Expand


Private Sub abc_Click()
    Dim f As Form
    Set f = New Form1
    Load f
    f.Show
End Sub


That's exactly what he'd posted.

No, it's not

[Tazo]

Nope.
What I'm going to have to do is move everything into my Form1, like my addtext and pbuffer and stuff =/

[Tazo]

Ok, I moved everything into my main form and it works fine now.
Thanks for the help!

It looks like the original problem was defining f inside a sub and then trying to use it from another sub?
