#Lost Sub labels
3 messages in this thread
I notice that after a while of running VB with multiple modules, the
program loses the ability to find some of the SUB names in external
modules. After saving the project, and reopening it, it can then find the
label again. Has anybody run into this problem?
Thanks

Hi Philip,
When this happens, look at your memory usage through the about box in the
program manager. You may getting down in memory and messing up something.
If you have many forms, try to only have a fraction available at any given
time. Use the Unload method instead of the Hide. Also look at the amount
of labels on your forms. The only time you should have labels is during
developement of the form design, and if you need an access key. All other
times you should just "paint" the text on the form in the Paint event. This
will speed up your program significantly, and use less resources. Both a
plus.

In my application, I have noticed that I lose % in resources (I have a
gauge). I'm using a Pascal DLL, which could be suspect, but I don't *think*
it is from that. I do have many items on each form, but I don't have many of
them active at any one time (maybe three). I do use -lots- of bitmaps. My
question is, as VB runs, does it lose a small amount of the resources as it
runs? IOWs, when dealing with hBitmaps handles that a DLL gives it, does it
properly DestroyObject(hBitmap) on them?
