Dear All,
Opening a access-interface it first show company-news that the user should
read.
The text is shown line by line on a black background and is read from a
txt-file that I update every day.
The tekst is rolling if it is longer than 55 chars.
Right from the text there is a Command-button that imports the next line
On_Click.
The user can click it or press ENTER (since it is the only tab-controle).
BUT, while a long line is rolling the computer should NOT store clicks or
enter-stokes because following line(s) are skipped.
Example: If you click the button while line 3 is rolling you never see line
4 and jumps directly to line 5.
In fact line4 is displayed so quicky that you don't see it.
OR, can I empty the store (how do they call it?) of mouse-clicks or
key-strokes when a rollingtext is finished ?
Thanks,
Filip 5 1491

I'm not sure why you are putting the users through the agony of reading
something line by line. Have you considered a large text box, setting
the scroll bar property to true on the text box and then reading the
entire text file into it? Like
Dim lngLen As Long
Close #1
Open strfile For Input As #1
lngLen = FileLen(strfile)
Me.TextFieldName = Input(lngLen, #1)
' Close the text file
Close #1
If you must give them 1 line by line why don't you make the text box
deeper and set the scroll bar to true.
Ok, but i still want to try it line by line to force the user to read it
slowly and attentivly.
Later I want to use the rest of the screen for correspondig images.

You CANNOT force anyone to do anything. If I were given such an app I
would simply click until it goes away no matter how long I had to wait
between clicks. Progrmas should not be designed so thay are obnoxious
and a pain in the ass. A pretty low brow was to set up a database if
you ask me.

It's your program so you can do what you want. But why not make the
text box that displays the data LARGER with SCROLL BARS so the folks can
scroll thru the text?

I agree with others here that I would very much dislike such a 'nagging' app...
Also: When the app is closed and opened again they have to read it again and again ??
If you want to *force* the users to actually *read* the text, you can't!
People 'could' close their eyes while clicking... ;-)
(Well you 'could' use a cam to check even that...)
You 'can' however show the text and force them to wait until the text is fully displayed.
No need for a button. Simply use timer code to show the text.
After all the text has been displayed, open the next form.
But please, please give them also a possibility (button) to go on to the next form when they want to.
