Saving text files

Skizzarz · **Posted:** Tue Feb 10, 2004 2:17 pm

Last year i made a vb program that starts up at the boot up of the comp and goes overtop of the logon window, my window was a duplicate of the login window and when someone typed there user and pass it saved it to a file in the c drive and came up with a fake error message and then exited to the real login window, i got a shitload of student and teacher logins, i compiled it, then i lost the form and forget the code i used for saving the actual file, but i know how to do every thing else, can someone just tell me how to save the text file thanks allot!

im not sure what you need to do, but couldn't you write it to a text file, there are some tutorials here i think where you can do that.

That is pretty brilliant. How would you do something like that?

For, uh, purely educational purposes of course.

in purely educational purposes you make a form in VB identical to that of windows logon (just copy the graphics and place textboxes in the correct place) then stick your program in msconfig above winlogon.exe

Yeah, I knew how to do everything except make it come up over the login screen.

i'll post it in the vb submission forum when im one it, hopefully i'll get some bits... Wink
