I'm not totally sure whether this method is what u are looking for.. But here is it.. Dim myCon As Char myCon = "a" TextBox1.Text = Convert.ToString(Convert.ToInt32(myCon))

I have tried installing both on the same machine... No problem at all and the files don't get mess up at all... VB6 files still runs on VB6 compiler while .NET files still stick to the .NET studio to run.

Yeap, wyrd.. the thread thing solves the problem.. Anyway, how do I post my findings? I'm newbie..Still trying to figure out my way in here..:)

Manage to work out the coding already. Thanks for the help..

Guys.. I got one more question... What if I put the function to sleep already but then I wanna continue that function later.. To make it more simple, I have a for loop function to print numbers from 1 to 10. However, when the loop prints until 5, I want to make the function sleep. Then with a click of a button on the same form, the functions continue to print from 6 to 10 instead of rerunning the whole process. Any ways???

No problem.. U can have VB6 and VB.NET installed on the same system...

Thanks for the codes and ideas, guys.. It's now working fine.. Thanks for the coding mutant..

Yeah, x += 1 is a good practice.. Why don't u use x = x+1? Are u looking for something recursive?

Yes, starcraft. U understand correctly. I think to put it in a better way of words, I wanna access the properties inside MDIchild1 from MDIchild2. I tried out the codes u gave.. It seems when u type ".", VB.NET doesn't seems to show the property of the form which in this case is a textbox I'm looking for. So I'm still stuck at the clearing textbox part since after declaring the form from what u have suggested, typing in the word "frm2" no longer gives me error but still to no avail, doesn't apply to the property inside the form.

If I got a MDIparent with 2 MDIchild in it, with each form(MDIchild) has a 2 textbox (1 is send textbox and another is received textbox) and 2 buttons (1 is Send button and the other is Reset button), does anyone know the way that when I click on Reset button, the received textbox on both forms will be emptied. I'm going to implement in client-server environment. Now, I only manage to clear one form Received textbox but not the other. Any ideas anyone? :confused:

Thanks for the help.. It works..:D

Hi... I'm a newbie in VB.NET... I wanna know is there a way to make the function running pause for a few seconds before re-run itself in a for loop such as below: Function con(ByVal bufferstring As String) As String Dim i As Integer Dim temp As String For i = 0 To bufferstring.Length - 1 temp &= vbCrLf & bufferstring.Chars(i) Next End Function The function above will print characters by characters from the variable "temp". However, it print all in one go. Is there a code to make it print 1 character then wait for 5 seconds before printing the 2nd character and so on... I tried using System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000) but it'll just hang there for 5 seconds and then in 1 go, print out all my characters which is not the outcome I want. Anyone got ideas how to do it? Please advice. Thank you..:)
