Hey guys, im trying to make a VB application where the computer calculates the area of a circle with radius of 10. I have the text field and two command buttons. 1 to calculate the area and asnother to stop the program. Heres the code Im trying to do:

Private Sub cmdCalculate_Click()
lblAnswer.Calculate = 3.14 * 10 ^ 2 'Display area of circle of radius 10 in label'
End Sub

Private Sub cmdDone_Click()
Unload Me
End Sub

Private Sub lblMessage_Click(Index As Integer)

End Sub

Whenever i try to run the program it gives me a runtime error of 424: object required

I believe what you want to say is
lblAnswer.caption not lblAnswer.Calculate

I've tried that thought and it does not work.

I ran it with lblAnswer.Caption instead of lblAnswer.Calculate and it ran fine. But... if the .Calculate were the problem, the runtime error would be that the method or data member is not found, not Object Required.

Try changing it to .Caption again and compile it, and when it gives you the error and you click OK, does it highlight a line of code or a procedure?

if .caption doesn't work for you either, I'm kinda sure that you have the wrong object. double check whether you have a LABEL control or a TextBox control. A textbox doesn't have .caption property.

If you press ctrl-spacebar where you would normally type the name of the object, it will allow you to pick from the controls that are on your form. That way you do not use objects that do not exist.

Cherubimon_3.20,
I was hoping you could shrink your signature file...
