call sub

[simonlee11]

Hi,
How do i call a subroutine when a button is pressed


thanks

You must be more precise on what you want to do.
What kind of sub do you want to call ?
The event sub of the button or another sub ?

Best regards.

I want to call a sub depending on an if statement result not the actual button sub

If the sub is in the same activity module just call it by name

'code
   If thing then MySub ' this calls MySub
'code

Sub MySub
   'Do stuff
End Sub

Thanks

Welcome to the B4A community!

A few comments - intended to help, please do not take offense:

at last a simple response to a simple question

At last? You got an answer less than 3 hours after your original post. It would have been less than an hour if your original question had been specific.

Because your question was nonspecific, potential responders had three choices: (1) contrive an comprehensive answer that would handle all possibilities (time consuming), (2) Guess at what you really needed and risk wasting the time of you, the responder, and anyone who peeked at this thread, or (3) ask for clarification so a clear and consise answer could be provided to you. Klaus was quite correct in asking for clarification. For future questions, providing as much actual code as possible would be a lot of help in responding to your questions. Take a look at the frequency and quality of help Klaus has provided to many folks. He deserves respect, not derision.

There is a great deal of documentation on this forum. Specifically, there is a VB6 to B4A conversion table that would undoubtedly be of great value to you in converting your Visual Basic code. You can find in this thread (not obvious from the title):
http://www.b4x.com/forum/basic4andr...ls/7475-there-goto-line-label-equivalent.html

There are many of us who have converted VB code to B4A. An easy way to ask a question would be to say "this is how I did it in VB (code . . .), how do I do it in B4A. You would probably get a quick, spot on answer.

Good luck, and have fun!
