Hello, , I am sure that this is going to be a simple problem to fix, but I have just started a very steep learning curve with Visual Basic 6 in that I have to alter a program that has already been written, and I am a complete novice to VB., , What I need to do is to read in a text file which has multiple lines. The information that is read in then has to be displyed in a text box for the user to read. i.e. one line in the text file should appear as one line in the text box. Is there a simple way of achieving this, or can someone point me in the right dircetion for finding a solution., , Thank you for your time., , Gary Park

I got a problem getting ADO recordsets to support the 'Seek' method from VB6. I have been using an access97 database, and no matter what combination of cursortype and cursorlocation i try, calling the .supports(adSeek) always returns false. Is there some wierd little trick i haven't found out about yet? Also - what about indexes, i found similar problems with these (i think that the seek method doesn't work without indexes). Any help would be vastly appreciated!, Cheers, Robin

Hello,, I am hoping you can help me as I am about to go mad with this problem. I would like to make a fax cover letter that has drop-downs or whatever for the send to fields. Since I am always sending faxes to my clients it seems like it would be easier to just have the fields in the fax cover letter just be drop-down lists for my clients. I am wondering if there is a way to code them, since i am a beginning programer and have no clue. That would allow for Word to pull the Name, Address, email, phone, etc... From either my Outlook address book, or from an Excel spreadsheet I set-up with my client data. Any sort of help would be VERY much apprechiated. Thanks for your help and time as always,
