Do until loop

Let me start off by saying I have VB working model which means no help. I
have searched MSDN. It seems that I get "Read the help" instead of answers
which is totally useless to me. With that said can someone please help me
understand why this does not work?

Dim x As String

Private Sub cmdlogin_Click( )
Do Until x = "Corey"
If txtlogin = "Corey" Then
frmcorey.Show
Unload frmlogin
End If
lbllogin = "Please login"
Loop
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()
lbllogin = ("Please login")
End Sub

Thank you

You have nothing changing the value of "x"... this Do/Loop will
likely loop perpetually.

Try adding AFTER the Do Until: x = txtlogin.Text

Are you going to appologize to me here too ?

For anyone who want's to know what Eric is (or I am) talking about, take a
look in "comp.lang.basi c.visual" , at the thread "intAge = Val(strAge) ???
Say what"
( OS************* ******@twister. tampabay.rr.com ... )
By the way : What's the problem ? With your code I mean.

I can *guess* what it is, but why didn't you just *tell* us ?
It "does not work" does not really qualify as a problem-description ...
By the way : the answer is that the problem is your Do-until loop Remove
it.

Rudy Wieser

P.s.
Maybe you should try to obtain a VB Help-file, so you can check for yourself
what the commands mean & do ...

Now that was uncalled for, No I will not appologize to you for that reason.
I will keep posting and hope not to hear from you again.

Rudy, you are so intent at me looking at the help file that my working model
visual basic does not have. May I ask that you pass your copy of help along
to me. If I had the help file for visual Basic 6 then I who have less need
to ask for help.

Thank you

Hello Eric,
Now that was uncalled for,
Really ? You're bad-mouthing me, but I'm not permitted to respond to it ?
No I will not appologize to you for that reason.
You where not going to in the first place, and now you've found a reason to
your refusal. Nicely done. But also quite childish ...
I will keep posting and hope not to hear from you again.


And that's why you posted another message (to me), about 5 hours later ?
You're *funny* !

Regards,
Rudy Wieser

P.s.
Did my suggestion (removing the Do-Until -loop work) ? Or didn't you see
that piece of my message either ?

Hello Eric,
Rudy, you are so intent at me looking at the help file that my working model visual basic does not have.
Why should I be so intent upon it ? It doesn't bring me fame or fortune if
you do, and doesn't cost me anything if you don't.

The only thing that would actually happen, is that *you* would benefit from
it ... And ofcourse I would be left with a happy feeling that I could,
again, help someone.
May I ask that you pass your copy of help along to me.
Yes, you may. And you get the same answer you gave me, and several others
when you where pointed to your mistake (of me, in my first response, not
helping you) : Dead silence.

Don't you think you're quite arrogant, when you behaved the way you did, and
afterwards think you can ask a favour ?
If I had the help file for visual Basic 6 then I who have
less need to ask for help.


Yes, I think you're right there. Now if only you would have thought of
that earlier ...

Rudy Wieser

I think we would all be pleased if you would do as you say and give dead
silence instead of your continued whining.

Hi there, There is always a "nice" way to do things in Python but this time I can't find one. What I'm trying to achieve is a conditionnal loop of which the condition test would be done at the end so the loop is executed at least once. It's some way the opposite of "while". So far, all I got is:

Hi there, As part of my Software course, i have to create a game. Since I originally started out with python, I was used to it being really easy to create a main loop to control the game with a simple while statement, pausing where input is needed from the user. Now that I have moved on to VB, I can seem to find a way to pause the while statements until the user does something (e.g. clicks a button). When i start my app, if just throws...
