any0ne g0t a g00d c0de for fl00dpr0tecti0n?
its very c0nfusing, ive tried it  ??? ::)

[code]
   Dim delay As Double
   delay = (((Len(Data) * 15 + 1700) / 1000) + 1) * 1000
[/code]

this is the algorithm i use, it will return the delay that you should use in miliseconds. then you would use CreateTimer() to make a timer with this delay and have it call your function to send the next message in queue.

Isn't that the same thing as saying:

[code]
Dim delay As Double
delay = Len(Data) * 15 + 2700
[/code]

:-/

is createtimer a vb function?

if i get this right, Noodlez was just saying make a function somewhat like Createtimer() (the concept)

Er, I meant SetTimer. Not Create.

SetTimer is a function in user32.dll

[code]Public Declare Function SetTimer Lib "user32" Alias "SetTimer" (ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal nIDEvent As Long, ByVal uElapse As Long, ByVal lpTimerFunc As Long) As Long
[/code]

That's how you declare it.

An example call would be:
[code]SetTimer(Me.Hwnd,&H0,delay, AddressOf SendQueue)[/code]
