To test your code, you can have VB send a command line every time you start your app... To do that, click on the 'Project' menu, the last item should be <your project name> Properties. Click on that, then click on the 'Make' tab. Near the bottom, there's a textbox called "Command Line Arguments". That's where you can put your test command lines. So, if you find that box and enter 'This is a Test' in the box and run this code, you should see a message box that says "This is a test" Private Sub Form_Load() MsgBox Command$ End Sub
