umm, Darth this isn't a Class File. Its just afew inbuilt vb6 functions like len(), instr() etc.

Although it will come in handy if you are doing something with file storing / copying

 

ty!! i have been looking for a command that modifyed read or write values of program!

 

Haha! I helped someone, I knew it!

 

Covey actually it is a class. It may not be a class module, but it is still a class. All built in functions are in a class. Check the object browser. Everything is under classes.

For everyone that didn't know, to find the object browser go to "View" then go to "Object Browser" or you can press F2.

If you haven't looked at it I recommend you do. It has almost all (if not all) built in functions listed.
