Help with VB6 Std & Snap Grid Feature

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around implementing a snap grid feature in a Visual Basic 6 Standard (VB6 STD) application. The user is seeking a method to move the cursor to specific grid positions but is struggling to find a suitable function or procedure, such as "xxxx.cursormove(x,y)." There is a suggestion to check the CURRENTPOSITION function, which may provide the desired functionality. However, there is clarification that "xxxx.currentx/y" is a property, not a function, and it is uncertain whether it can move the cursor. The conversation also includes links to resources that may assist in resolving the issue.

Thread 'Urgent: Physically repair - or bypass - power button on Asus laptop'
Asus Vivobook S14 flip. The power button is wrecked. Unable to turn it on AT ALL. We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved: These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on.
