Get Current Procedure Name
Hi Guys!
I need to write a logging class for some commercial software. I would prefer to write a dll with a Log() method. Then at the top each Sub() inside my exe I would put a single call like Call Log.LogCurrentPosition WITHOUT having to copy and paste each procedure name in!
Any ideas???
Cheers

With vb 6 project, How can i retrieve the name of the current procedure called?
thank you
Getting Name Of Current Procedure
Hi guys,
Is there a way of getting the name of the procedure that is currently being executed? Its for my error trapping routine:
Code:
Private Sub myProcedure()
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
'Do stuff
Exit Sub
ErrorHandler:
Msgbox "An unhandled error occurred." & vbCrLf _
& "Description: " & Err.Description & vbCrLf _
& "Module: " & Me.Name & vbCrLf _
& "Procedure: " & [color=DarkRed][name of procedure][/color]
End
End Sub
So firstly, is there a way of getting [name of procedure] or do I have to manually write the name of the procedure as a string, like this...
Code:
...
& "Procedure: myProcedure"
...
...which is a bit tedious when I have loads of procedures!
Secondly, is this a satisfactory way to handle unhandled errors? I'm planning to put this code in every procedure, to handle any error that I haven't anticipated. Is it ok to use 'End' in this circumstance?
Thanks a lot!
John
Current Form, Current Sub
Hello
I want to right a generic error handler for my app. When an error occurs, a msgboc popups with the error number, error message. I would like the message to contain the current form or module that caused the errors and the current sub/function would be sweet also.
Me.Name work for forms, but not for modules.
no idea how to fetch the current sub.
thx
Get Current Procedure's Module Name
Hello,
i use VB6 and while on try to create a global errorhandler class, i was wondering if there is a way to get the name of the module the prodecure is(private or public; form or standard) to print to my log file. The public procedures are not the problem (since unique names) but e.g. text1_click might be in 2 or more private modules (forms).
Any ideas?
Thank you
Get Current Function/procedure Name
Hi,
I'm creating a general error handler, and it would be very very usefull if I could make it show the name of the function where the error was detected.
The Err object provides a code and description, but isn't there anything where I could get the name of the function it's in at that moment?
I searched this forum and googled for various things, but nothing gets me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance.
Current Procedure/function
Is there a way to determine what the name of the current procedure/function is at run time?
I want to be able to show a messagebox (or other things) saying "This is Sub GetFormProperties".
Current Function Or Procedure ...
Is there a way in VB to identify the name of the Procedure/Function which is being executed in the application ??
For instance ... If there is a function called TestFunc and when TestFunc is called I'd like to know the name of this function (Testfunc) inside this function (when control comes to this function). I do not want to hardcode this thing. Is there a system value that can provide me this information.
Current Procedure Name And Event?

Current Position On Current Line *resolved- Code I Used Inside*
this is for VBA but i dont think it will matter if you know a way to do this in VB6 that would be great i will try to convert it from there on my own thanks
ok my question is that i have a textbox on a worksheet in excel and i want to be able to find out what the current position on the current line that im on. here is what im trying to do. ok i am first off converting a file from a emacs file to beable to be read and looked at in windows. and the tab stops to look right in windows. in emacs it make the tabs 8 spaces long and for some reason they are only like 5-6 or so in the textbox. and i want to beable to take a chr(9) which is tab and replace it with space(8) but here is where the problem is.
when you are in the first space on a line it and hit tab in emacs it moves over 8. then of you are on the 2nd it moves over 7 and goes to the same spot as the last tab this happens all the way over to space 8 where it starts over. and i need to be able to detect want spot the chr(9) was found on so i know how many spaces to go over. well hopefully someone can help. i currently dont have any code writen really. all i have is the code the replaces all chr(9) with space(8) if you want i can post that so you can look at how i do stuff.
well thanks for your help and hope you read this soon thanks

Subscript Error When Called By Current Sub Procedure
When I call the function "SplitResult" from a subprocedure I get an error msg - subscript out of range - which I presume means it can't find elements in the array (??)
BUT, when I then call the function "SplitResult" from a command button seperately, it works!
Ive had a hunt around the forum and on the net, but can't find out why!
The first Sub procedure
Code:
Private Sub Winsock1_DataArrival(ByVal bytesTotal As Long)
Timer1.Enabled = False
Winsock1.GetData sBuffer 'Put data into the sBuffer variable
txtSource = txtSource & sBuffer 'Print out to text box
SplitResult 'Call Split Sub Pro
End Sub
And this is what it calls
Code:
Private Sub SplitResult()
HoldingBuffer = txtSource.Text
'Split the result into two parts
SplitResults = split(HoldingBuffer, "])")
txtSource.Text = Right(HoldingBuffer, Len(sBuffer) - Len(SplitResults(0)))
'Redefine variable names of parts of code
extrainfo = SplitResults(0)
maincode = SplitResults(1)
maincode = Trim(maincode) 'Trim the main code of white space
'Add Lost characters
extrainfo = extrainfo & "])"
'Output the two results to various areas
txtSource.Text = SplitResults(1)
frmExtraInfo.txtExraInfo.Text = extrainfo
End Sub
All variables are declared in Option Explicit
So like I said - when I call the second bit of code from a command button after disabling it being called from the first, it works, but I need it to run without user intervention!
There's obviously something wrong with it, so if anyone can help me discover what, and find a solution, I'd be grateful. thanks

Forms: Need Select/Where OR Filter So Form 2 Opens With Form 1 Current Record
Should be easy... and will be when I get an answer...
Visual Basic forms app. I have two forms (frm_Offenders and frm_Vehicles). frm_Offenders works great (add, edit, delete records). frm_Offenders uses tbl_Offenders Access DB. frm_Offenders has a button to open frm_Vehicles. frm_Vehicles works great (add, edit, delete). frm_Vehicles uses tbl_Vehicles Access DB.
Problem is this... when I press button from frm_Offenders I need frm_Vehicles to open only showing records where CARDS_ID is equal. CARDS_ID is an autofill numeric field in tbl_Offenders (prime key). tbl_Vehicles also has a CARDS_ID field that is not autofill but is a prime key. When frm_Vehicles is open and you press the "Add" button a new record is created in tbl_Vehicles and the CARDS_ID field is autopop with the current record CARDS_ID from frm_Offenders.
So... both tables have CARDS_ID field. I need frm_Vehicles to open to the current record selected in frm_Offenders. Also no DataGrid view. Both forms have listboxes that when record is selected all other fields (name, address, etc.) are bound.
Currently frm_Vehicles opens with all records. tbl_Vehicles data would look something like this:
CARDS_ID v_Year v_Make v_Model
34 2000 Ford F-150
34 2007 Niss Pathfinder
35 2005 Dodg RAM 1500
36 1990 Chev Camero
tbl_Offenders data would look something like this:
CARDS_ID Name_Last Name_First Name_Mid
34 Smith John James
35 Doe Billy Bob
36 Sharp Albert Oscar
In short everything works great except being able to filter records on frm_Vehicles. Think I need a "Where frm_Offenders.CARDS_ID = frm_Vehicles.CARDS_ID" type of statement.
Please help!

VB6 Current Active Form
Hi,
I have got an issue where I need to find out at any given time which form is active. I have about 6 forms in my project. Basically below is my logic:
I only want to show a certain form only when a given form is visible. I have already tried to use:
Code:
If Screen.ActiveForm.Name = "form1"
but at certain times I get run time error 91 object variable or with block variable not set. I have tracked it down to the fact that Screen object doesnt exist sometimes which may be when other normal XP windows are open.
Ps I have already had a look at:
http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.p...t=unload+forms
All in all what I am really trying to do is avoid 401 modal form errors!
Thanks,
Way To Find Out Current Form
Is there a way to find out the current form which is running. As i have a module which refers to a component (called Map in this case) on a form. So i have to do:
VB Code:
MainForm.Map.Height = 10
but what happens if I run the public sub in the module from a different form with the same Map componet do I have to rewrite a Sub and change the form name or can I some how get it to find out which form called the Sub and thus which map on which form needs its height setting to 10?
Module - Using Current Form
I've got a VB6 project that was working fine. I've taking a snippet of code which was copied into three different forms and was working fine. In the form, I was running a piece of code which was using "Me.TEXTBOXNAME.TEXT".
Well, I've realized that having the code in three places (and realizing I had to make a change to each), I've moved the code to a module instead. I've made it a public function, and my only problem now is that the Me.TEXTBOXNAME.TEXT syntax doesn't work. My project doesn't really seem to know how to read this data.
I need the module to pull the info. from the textbox named TEXTBOXNAME on whichever form is currently open (focus?)...
Does anyone know how I'd achieve this.
I know I could take a CHEAP out and put IF statements into the module, and hard-code the three form names, but I think there's an easier way. Any Ideas?
Thanks!

How To Pass Current Form As Parameter
Hi Folks
My aim to have a common function to clear up all the fields/controls of the form. Now the code for this is common irrespective of what controls are present on the form. So I want to move it to a common module and then have each form call this. But for this i have to pass the current userform as a parameter to the common function. I tried passing ME as a parameter but that does not work.. Any ideas ?

Capture Current Form As An Image In VB6
This must be really easy to do(!) but I just cant get it to work!!
I want to grab the current active visible form (a regular VB form I've created), controls and all, as an image so I can shove it in a picture box an another form.
I've found lots of code for grabbing the entire desktop, but I dont want it all and I'm getting tangled in knots trying to select only my form's part of the desktop. So I figure there must be a way to grab only the current form?
I've tried using "StretchBlt" but cant get the parameters right!
Any help would be really appreciated!!!

Passing Current Form Parameter (Solved)
In my program i have many screens and i want to make sure the user can set a value to big or small for the width and height for each form. so instead of typing this code out each time i planned to pass the name of a current form to a module and then work out the resizing there.
Code:
Private Sub Form_Resize()
Dim sCurrentScreen As String '<---think its this thats wrong
'set the Current viewed screen as CurrentScreen
sCurrentScreen = Me.Name
Call ScreenResize(sCurrentScreen)
End Sub
the code above passes sCurrentScreen to the module below
Code:
Public Sub ScreenResize(sCurrentScreen As String)
Debug.Print "Current Screen = "; sCurrentScreen
'If the screen isnt maximised or minimissed
If sCurrentScreen.WindowState = 0 Then
'set the minimum screen width to 10500 twips
If sCurrentScreen.Width < 10500 Then sCurrentScreen.Width = 10500
'set the minimun screen height to 8000 twips
If sCurrentScreen.Height < 8000 Then sCurrentScreen.Height = 8000
'set the maximum screen to 10 twips less than the screen size
If sCurrentScreen.Height > Screen.Height Then sCurrentScreen.Height = (sCurrentScreen.Height - 500)
'set the maximum screen to 10 twips less than the screen size
If sCurrentScreen.Width > Screen.Width Then sCurrentScreen.Width = (sCurrentScreen.Width - 80)
End If
End Sub
this however doesnt work as it wont let me use sCurrentScreen.WindowState for example i think this is because im passing the value as a string instead of what i shoudl be passing it as? coudl anyone help with this please
thx in advance

How To Determine What Form Called Current Form.
I have to think this would be fairly simple but I wasn't able to find it in the archives.
Is there an API call or some type of property that can tell me what form called/displayed the current form?
Form1 ------>Form3---------> Form4
Form2------->Form3---------> Form4 ---------> Form5
If I'm in Form4, how can I tell that it was called/displayed via Form1 to Form3 to Form4 as opposed to Form2 to Form3 to Form4?
I'm using "Form3.Show vbModal" in Form1 to show the Form3.
I'm using "Form4.Show vbModal" in Form3 to show the Form4.
While in Form4, I'd like to know what forms were accessed to get there. I don't want to keep track of the forms using global variables because the forms may drill down to any number of levels. (Form5, 6, etc)
Thanks!
How To Find Out Which Form Displayed The Current Form
I have a form which can be called from multiple places throughout my application. However the form is to behave differently depending upon where it was called from.
The form is to always be shown modally, so how can I find out at runtime which form has invoked this form?
