Run Time Error on Slow Computers - William - 18-11-2006

If a person is playing a MS game on a slow computer (probably around 128RAM). Then they will have a error when entering the game.

The cause of that error is this line of code:
Code:
' Set the focus
    frmMirage.picScreen.SetFocus

So remove that if you wish.

Why does this cause an error on slow computers?


- William - 19-11-2006

Cause a slow computer wants to run that line of code, but it can't make it happen.

At least I had that problem when I tested logging in on a sucky computer.

If I could explain all aspects about a computer, I wouldn't be hanging on this forum.

That line caused a error to me. Therefore I informed it here.

Why would you want that there anyway?

If people can't seem to move, they will click the screen.

My guess is the handle of the form never had time to be created. If you want to keep that line, maybe make sure you load the form like:

Code:
Load frmMirage
frmMirage.Show
DoEvents
