well, i'm not too much into vb, but here's what it looks like in my tutorial:
Call objDD.SetCooperativeLevel (Me.hwnd, DDSCL_NORMAL) i don't think the "Call" matters, but do braces help?
DirectX under VB, help

In VB,
Call proc(x,y)
is the same as:
proc x, y
And I thought it might be something to do with the fullscreen thing, but I tried modifying the tutorial and taking out that parameter and it still runs without error, although no output is created. But I just tried your suggestion and it worked. WTH? Why doesn't it mess up the tutorial? Oh well.
Thanks.

1. No need to pass formx.hwnd just pass 0. Only needed for Fullscreen mode.
2. Exclusive is only for fullscreen mode I believe.

What is wrong with the following:
Set DD = DX.DirectDrawCreate("")
formX.Show
DD.SetCooperativeLevel formX.hWnd,_
DDSCL_EXCLUSIVE
DD.SetDisplayMode 1024, 768, 24, 0,_
DDSDM_DEFAULT
----------------------------
It highlights setco-op and says invalid argument. formX is the one and only form there, but I can't use Me.hWnd because I'm in a module. This is how the tutorial does it- and that seems to run. Thanks for any help, I'm using VB5 and DX 7 (of course).

Thanks, I'll give it a shot. The hWnd isn't required... hmm.
