Well... any changes you do to your VB code are done "online"... "online" on
your *PC* that is.
Then you'll have to recompile your PC's VB code and, when running your VB
app, only then, the p-codes are sent to the RCX, by the Spirit.OCX
functions you used in your VB code.

So: 1) The RCX doesn't run VB code.
2) The VB uses Spirit.OCX functions to send RCX p-codes.
3) Sending immediate type p-codes, you are using the PC CPU to do all the
logic, and the RCX simply obeys.
4) Sending program type p-codes, you are downloading an autonomous RCX
program, through VB's Spirit.OCX functions.

TWO QUESTIONS! 1. Can anybody tell me if there is a way to upload a program FROM the RCX to a PC using Visual Basic?? 2. Is there a way to make changes to a program directly while it is in the RCX?? I would like to be able make changes to the VB (...) (27 years ago, 15-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)
