Have the timer event use the message command and form.open can continue to work Private hTimer as Timer Public sub Form_...

Mouse dragging
When I drag an image on the screen the mouse is positioned top left just outside the image. Is there a way to get the mouse cursor to be within the image being dragged?

Re: Resize a picture
I am aware of 'Stretch'. Much better to use Mode than stretch. What I am doing gets a picture to line up with a GridView when being dragged. Below you can see it works. This allows me to resize the form and the image still lines up, so it needs to be exact. So sorry, 'Stretch' doesn't cut it! https:...

Re: Program that Starts other programs
I am running Linux Mint 21 with the Cinnamon desktop. It has "Startup applications" menu. Here you can see my music player that will wait for 15 seconds before starting. I expect other distros have something similar. Does this help?

Re: Routines for Set manipulation
Use of sets can quite often shorten code; suppose you want to take some action depending on whether a number is in a certain range, eg, IF(n >= 5 AND n <= 10) OR (n >= 25 AND n <= 30) THEN... Using a set with the appropriate range you need only write IF set_in(n, ranges) THEN... which is simpler an...
