Get a VB6 variable's name as a string value
debugging, parsing, string, vb6
Solution
It is not possible in VB6. You have to pass name of the variable.
AddVariableValue2Log(True, "MyFunction", "MyVariable", MyVariable, Now())
Problem
I would like to get a VB6 variable's name as a string value in order to handle it in a logging facility I am using like the following one (please check !!!VariableName!!!). Is there any way to achieve this? I am pretty new to VB6 and I am supposed to maintain and debug existing old VB6 code. ``` Public Sub AddVariableValue2Log(ByVal checkDebug, _ ByVal sFunctionName As String, _ ByVal sVariableValue As String, _ ByVal sTimeStamp As String) If checkDebug Then Dim sLogPath As String sLogPath = "C:\Temp\Log_" & sTimeStamp & ".txt" Dim fn As Integer fn = FreeFile Open sLogPath For Append As #fn Write #fn, Now & "|" & sFunctionName & "|>>>!!!VariableName!!! value: [" & sVariableValue & "]" Close #fn End If End Sub ```
