Disabling Procedure

[vg19]

Hi,

I am doing a vb program in which I want to disable a produre. Basically I have a Call statement. Then I have an if statement in the proceudre. What I want to do is if the If statement inside the procedure has been run once, it should disable and never be run again. I am not sure if this can be done.

Please help

sounds like a bad programming practice... but... if you must...

code:

sub myProcedure(flag as boolean) if flag then end '// should exit the procedure. Not sure on syntax. end if print "flag was false, procedure is running end sub

code:

Private Sub Proc()     Static blnDisabled As Boolean     If blnDisabled = True Then         Exit Sub     End If     If <Conditions> Then         <Statements>         blnDisabled = True     End If End Sub

Once the code in the If statement has been run, the procedure will be "disabled". You can move blnDisabled = True outside of the If statement to always disable the procedure regardless of the conditions, if that's what you wanted.

^ good code.
If you are looking to turn off the button that is calling the procedure use:

code:

btnWhatever.Enabled = False

at the end of the sub
