A friend of mine is still using VB5 and has a problem. He writes:
Quote:
I was writing an application in VB5, and somehow I seem to have locked out the ability to adjust controls. I can, for example, place and size a new image box, text box, etc. with the mouse. But once it has been set, I cannot move it or re-size it. I looked at these controls' properties and their locked/unlocked option is set to "unlocked."
Does anyone still remember VB5 and have a clue? TIA --Sam
