   following VB Variables at run time
  is there a way to follow them without have to put labels on my forums and link them to vars? like a built in VB variable thing that i can use at run time that shows all my vars and their values? 
  Use the debugger and add "watches" to the variables you want to watch.;  Or make it super easy and just place a MsgBox after each variable you want to check.For instance,X = YMsgbox XVery easy. ;  i''ll try to figure the "watch" thing out. i''ve been messing with it a bit - but i can''t figure out how to actually add a variable to it. nothing ever showsas for the msgbox - it''s a good idea, but when i have over 40,000 variables it''s not very convenient. thanks for suggesting though ;  When you have over 40,000 variables, and in Visual Basic, something is wrong..very, very wrong. ;  not really. i''m making a hockey game.i have a player type i made that has over 50 sub thingys to it (don''t know what they''re called... but like Player.FirstName, Player.LastName, Player.BirthDate, etc, etc - and 5000 players... as well as all the game variables... 40,000 it pretty easily hit. ;  Why are you loading 5000 players at one time? You only need enough players in memory at one time to make two teams.;  no - it''s not that simpleeach player has stats that are possibly changed every day - i need to load them to grids for stats, i need to be able to load a player bio - i need to be able to have attributes changing depending on practicing which happens everyday... trades are initiated for players from other teams. i couldn''t just load players for 2 teams - because every single player needs to be availble at any time...  ;  Well, there''s still no reason to load all 5000 at one time. You might want to rethink your design.;  You are doing something terribly wrong, or overly complicated, somewhere.
