No. I tested it in the IDE with VB6+SP5 with SP6 runtimes. I waited till AA got to 980, which took about 5 minutes, then clicked X. CPU usage stayed high for few seconds then dropped to 0(loop ended). I waited an extra minute, but the program didn't end, then I hit the break button in the IDE and nothing was highlighted. So it's the same as VB5.

Why do you expect the rest of us to repeat answers that are already out there, many of those which have come from archives of this exact ng? Don't be so fvcking lazy dude. Because Google has become such a PITA to navigate. If you know how to use Google Groups properly then it's easy to focus on just the MS NNTP VB newsgroups. But if you don't know how then there are many, useless and duped answers. Google is evil when it comes to newsgroups/forums.

The way it stores all our search phrases for up to two years, the way it invades our streets with its silly roof-mounted cameras, the way it pretends it can offer an "operating system", and in many other ways. Google is the new Microsoft that everybody loves to hate. MM |
