vb2005 propertybagMy vb6 user control used a propertybag. A typical form would use 6 of these
user controls. The setting of one never affected the others. Now I'm supposed to use serialization to replace the property bag. But, the examples I have show saving and retrieving from a file. Since the file is explicitly named, in the samples, how do I keep the instances separate??

So if I get a TempPath/FileName, how do I code it so that's the one used for that control.? If I use a Global variable for filename in the Main app, does the User Control see it? GalenS

You can store the name somewhere - the registry perhaps? Can't help you much on User Controls Hi GalenS,

The next time I load that form, the user controls have to be re-initialized for the new usage. But, I have another problem. In the user control there is a PictureBox on the main user control panel. It is smaller than the panel. I use the Mouse to determine where to draw a line on the picture box. So these are picture box mouse events. They are made Public but they are not seen by the test application. I have read up on Shadowing and Overides but very confusing. How do I accomplish this? GalenS Hi,
From your description, I understand that you have a usercontrol. There is a panel on the usercontrol and a picturebox on the user control. And now you want to handle the mouse event from the user control. If I have any misunderstanding, please let me know. Based on my research, the approach to handle the mouse event is same. Select the picturebox instance from the IDE code view left dropdownbox, and select the mouse event from the IDE code view right dropdownbox. BTW: Commonly for a new question, I suggest you open a new thread, so that the whole post will easier be read.
