Q & A's
This document contains some of the most frequently asked questions and their answers about Visual Basic for Windows

Q: I don't know much about Visual Basics and I am told I act mentally retarded. But how do I execute a program in the background while Visual basics is running?

A: Dear Retarded person: the following code that is placed below will help you do what you want. (This code will launch winzip if it is installed in the directory the code points to.)

Private Sub Command1_Click() (This is all one line) intHandle = Shell("C:\ProgramFiles\WinZip\WINZIP32.EXE")

Q: People have called me a stupid idiot befor, but I was woundering how do I put a bitmap into my Visual basics program?

A: Dear Stupid Idiot: Use the Picture box icon to insert a picture box then use the picture boxes properties to insert the image.

Q: Dear Visual Basics people , im a 14 year old from Iraq and I am woundering how I launch programs from inside Visual Basics and have them made the top most screen.

A: Dear person that the USA bombs a lot: OLE OLE OLE!!!!! If you cant figure out the code and need to do something, OLE will handle almost anything you can think of.

Q:Dear Visual basics people: even though I was just impeached I would like to know how I can get Visual Basics to open a web page and load my personal pictures of Monica L.

A: Dear pervert: Use the following code

Make the following declares in 32-bit VB (16-bit VB only needs a small change in API declare; see topic above):

Private Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" Alias _ "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As _ String, ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, _ ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As Long

And create a button (or whatever) and call the default web browser using this method:

Private Sub cmdGotoHomesite_Click() Dim ret& ret& = ShellExecute(Me.hwnd, "Open", "http://www.iamapervert.com", "", App.Path, 1) End Sub
