Ghost Checkbox Settings
When my program loads I have it search the programs registry entries to retrieve basic options the user has set, however when it loads it sets my check boxe to disabled and checked, however no where in my program are either of those values given to that checkbox. I also looked during design time at the checkbox's properties and those are set to enabled, and unchecked. Any help as to what is going on with these ghost functions would be great, thank you.

Save Settings
I am writing a program (a Html Editor) and everytime I start it up, I have to move it around the screen, resize it, change different options etc.. I want to make a local text file that the program generates to keep track of these settings automatically. I already know how to save it, but I haven't the slightest idea about how to record, retrieve or utilize the data.
An examle of a value would be "mdiHtml.WindowState". On Form_Terminate, I want it to record this setting to the file, then on the next Form_Load to retrieve it and make it match. It should do this with multiple values.
Thanks.

What's The Best Way To Save Settings?
I've been printing settings to text files, and loading them on Form_Load, but I was wondering if there's a better way to save and load settings? Maybe I could do it through the registry or something? I have no idea how, though, so if anyone could help, I would really appreciate it.
[edit] I just realised that this should be in the 'File I/O and Registry' forum, and I appologize for posting it here.

Save Settings Of An App
I'm working on a program that adjusts light brightness levels and effects etc...I've got everything working, but now I want to be able to save the settings of where the scroll bars are at. So when you open the program, you can open saved settings, and the scroll bars will be adjusted to where you last left them after saving. For now, I just need to do it for one scroll bar, then I'll figure it out later. What I want to do is when you click "save" it reads where the scroll bar is at, and then puts that data in a .txt file. Then when you click "open" and open your last settings, it looks in the .txt file for the number of where the scroll bar was at, and then once it finds where it was at, it adjusts where the scroll bar should be...(the slider thing). I need some code examples...Does anyone know how to do this?
Save Settings
Ok....I've had it with these save settings things! I've looked at guides and i still cant find out how to save the settings so that when the form unloads and loads back up the text box has the text last typed in it. Can someone please post an example! Thx

Don't Save In VB And VBA Program Settings
I have a program that uses the registry. However, it saves all the registry settings under HKEY_CURRENT_USER - Software - VB and VBA Program Settings - My Program

I am creating a small program whose window has lots of combobox, optionbutton, checkbox, and textbox, because there are two many inputs (more than 200), so I want to add SAVE and LOAD button. I have connected these two buttons with Common Dialog.

My question are:

I am a newbie, sorry for this basic question, hope you could help me a little, thx a lot.

Save Excel As Csv Without Regional Settings
Hi all,
I'm pretty new to VBA/Macros.
We have a spreadsheet that we need to save as a csv file. Not problem if you're regional settings are US or UK English. When one of our German users saves the file as a csv, it uses the German field separator (semi-colon) instead of a comma.
Now according to the MS knowledgebase, if I save the file as csv using VB, it should ignore the regional settings and use a comma.
The statement I'm using is
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs FileFormat:=xlCSVWindows
Unfortunately, it still saves it with the semi-colon instead of a comma.
Any ideas?
Excel is 2000, running on W2K. VB6.08714
TIA,
Rob

If yes, how?

Save Settings After Exit And Reboot
Everyone,
I know it is possible to save preferences settings so that even if you shut down and restart your computer the preferences are saved. If I want to save the value of a variable so that when the computer is shut down and restarted i could retreive the variable, how could I do this.
I have looked through some threads and it looks like I can write the variables and values to a text file within the program directory but what would the code look like to export and then import the values?
I know this is most likely a very simple thing to do but I just can't seem to get it.
Thanks for your help
