Suggestion to add - Nean - 07-11-2008
I figured since a lot of websites and other games do this, why not add it to MS4
Code:
If Len(Trim$(Name)) = Len(Trim$(Password)) Then
Call AlertMsg(Index, "Your name and password must be different!")
Exit Sub
End IfShould work. Untested. 3 in the morning. You get the idea.

Why would you want Len() ? Replace the len with lCase instead.

He's checking if the name and password are the same length first.
Re: Suggestion to add - William - 07-11-2008
Nean, what you are doing atm is that a account named: Morby and a password named: kol34 wont work. Len returns the length of the string as a integer. I think you mean that the account and password cant be the same name. Instead for the password you might wanna do this:
[code]if len(password)

No, you had it right at first.
He means:
if lcase(name) = lcase(password) then
Call that alert sub thingy
exit sub
end if
Re: Suggestion to add - William - 08-11-2008
Yeah I know I was right. But both the ways I posted could be good actually. So that the name and password cant be the same name, and the password needs to be 7symbols or higher.
