I have the following code:

Dim dlgColorPicker As New frmColorPicker

dlgColorPicker.Show vbModal

Is there a way to get a value returned from the dialog? I want to know if the user pressed OK or Cancel. I know I can setup a global variable in frmColorPicker. Is this the only way?

Thanks,
Tim

How did you create this? Are you using a control you Downloaded? Or did you create a dialog and add code to it. If it is just a dialog you added to your project and are showing as modal, you can add code to the Cancel and Ok Button Click events. Please clarify a bit.

I found some slick code to accomplish this:


Calling module:

Dim dlgColorPicker As New frmColorPicker
Dim iRet as VbMsgBoxResult

    iRet = dlgColorPicker.ShowForm

In frmColorPicker:

Private m_ReturnVal as VbMsgBoxResult

Public Function ShowForm() As VbMsgBoxResult

    Me.Show vbModal
    ShowForm = m_ReturnVal

End Function

Private Sub cmdOK_Click()
    m_ReturnVal = vbOK
End Sub

Private Sub cmdCancel_Click()
    m_ReturnVal = vbCancel 
End Sub
