Hi,

    How to make Link (Desktop__Short Cut )of VB forms... ?
     Those Shortcut must work in compiled exe file ....

    I want to make form's link as Ms Access makes forms links (short cuts )... because whenever i update any form then i have to update my all client applications..(exe files). and that take very much time and sometime show **** errors... so i think why not make short cuts and past those on clients rather than app.exe file ...

 is there any way to do it ?

thanks

stay beautiful,

hi there..

first, don't post this on every forum you found.. cross posting is not a good thing..

second.. did you consider making a dll to hold your forms and only change that??

Yes .. posting more than one is not good but i could not get any answer from db forum thats why i thought that, that place no right so i post here again ....

    no, no dll ....
  i just want to make short cuts like ms access..
  making dll and holding forms is not easy way because my project has more than 70 forms .. so what to do ... may i create dll for holding all .... (with all components, controls )? No never ..

    I don't like this way ... because it will increase problems ... (i think )

well.. i never saw that so i could not help you.. but if you dont use dll where will you put your new forms??

an exe for every form is a worst idea...

Offcourse Exe for every form is most terrible... any one with any other idea ..

  what do you think about Command Line Arguments ... ? Can those help me ; but how ?

Well, in VB6 you can pass commandline arguments and if you can call 1 exe on a server from all clients this might be a possible solution for you. (but I am not sure if it is possible to run an App ,that is located on the server, at a client.)

As you know a shortcut can contain an argument.

So if you read the commandline parameter and load a form depending on your parameter you have your shortcuts.

first, before thinkin in command line arguments, you have to solve where will you put your forms...

Yes, Offcourse i want to put forms on server .....and Command line arguments can be pass through shortcut files but how i can make those easy ... i mean what will be burdn on network if about 10 user access same exe file (that is with 70 forms)

... is there any nice way ....
