oh man, thank you. this forum has made me feel stupid multiple times now. argg!! :) seriously though thanks for that.

EDIT: hmm it works but not very well, if I cant figure out whats wrong in the next few minutes Ill post it up here.

EDIT: I figued it out, I needed the "Else betch.Value = 0" on both levels of my nested if.

EDIT: alright probelm # 2. I have this line of code:

 If hour.Text Like "#" Then
--long list of stuff down here but adventuly turns off something

problem is, as you may know, an hour can be 1 digit, or 2 digits. What Im looking for this time is like an

if hour.text like "#" or "##" then

kind of command, any ideas on this one?

If I dont get a response Ill make anew thread.

Just put the isnumeric() in an if statement

I dont know if this is the exact syntax for VB because I havnt touched it in almost a year.

if isnumeric(textbox1.text) then

textbox2.text = "ITS A NUMBER!!!"

else

textbox2.text = "ITS NOT NUMBER!!! WHY NOT???"

end if

    • Anker announces global recall of five power bank models over fire safety risks by Aditya Tiwari The Chinese electronics brand, Anker Innovations, known for its mobile accessories and power banks has announced a voluntary global recall of five power bank models. The decision comes after the company spotted a potential fire hazard issue with lithium-ion battery cells from a particular vendor. Anker said that it put up a series of quality checks to detect manufacturing issues early in the production cycle, which include component level-audits and supplier testing. The company assured that "while the likelihood of malfunction is considered minimal, out of an abundance of caution, we have decided to initiate a voluntary global recall of several Anker power bank models." Here's the list of the Anker Power Bank models chosen for the global recall: Model A1257 - Anker Power Bank (10K, 22.5W) Model A1647 - Anker Power Bank (20,000mAh, 22.5W, Built-In USB-C Cable) Model A1652 - Anker MagGo Power Bank (10,000mAh, 7.5W) Model A1681 - Anker Zolo Power Bank (20K, 30W, Built-In USB-C and Lightning Cable) Model A1689 - Anker Zolo Power Bank (20K, 30W, Built-In USB-C Cable) If you think you own one of the affected power banks, you can check the model number located on the back or side of your power bank. After that, you can fill out the recall form to start the process and verify the serial number of your affected device. If your power bank is eligible for the recall, you can either get a replacement or receive a gift card for use on the Anker website. It's not offering any refunds in the US at the moment. Anker advises that you should stop using an impacted power bank immediately even if the device functions normally right now. A unit confirmed for the recall could pose the risk of overheating, melting, smoke, or fire. This is the second major recall from Anker in the same month after more than a dozen reports of fires and explosions. The company previously recalled over one million Anker PowerCore 10000 (A1263) power bank units, citing fire safety risks due to a potential issue with the Lithium-ion battery. These power banks were sold in the US from January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2022.
