Klogg Posted May 7, 2004 Posted May 7, 2004 I'm making a screen saver in VB and I got it to work, but it has some problems in the "Screen Saver" tab of the Display Settings. Instead of showing the screen saver in the little computer monitor thingie inside the window, the program actually starts running. Also, when I click the "Preview" button, the screen saver starts, then when I move the mouse to stop it, it stops and starts again. I think I must be leaving out something that I need to put into the code. Help would be appreciated. Thanks. Quote Take a look at my programs. Go to my web site.
Administrators PlausiblyDamp Posted May 7, 2004 Administrators Posted May 7, 2004 (edited) IIRC you need to check the command line parameters passed in i think control panel passes /c when a user clicks the configure button and /p for the preview - not 100% on the /p though. EDIT :I was correct :) have a look here for a list of all the parameters.

Klogg Posted May 7, 2004 Author Posted May 7, 2004 Thanks. The web site that you gave me wasn't in VB, so I did a Google search using "/p" as one of the keywords and found a web page that shows how to do it in VB. I think that I can figure it out from that, but I'll post again if I can't. Quote Take a look at my programs. Go to my web site.
