Hi all! I'm having an issue and so I turn to the geniuses for help :)
What I'm trying to do:
I'm trying to have users be able to click a button, which then allows the user to click the top left corner of a portion in a picture followed by the lower right corner of a portion of the picture. When they click I am looking for the XY coordinates of the picture to be saved in a specific box.
What I have:
I have some working code that will save picture coordinates upon clicking. I was using it to prefill some 'test' boxes as a proof of concept and it worked beautifully. I'm trying to make this more user friendly so I copied the same code over to a slightly different mechanism and it obviously hit the fan because it isn't designed for what I moved it to. I've attached a picture of the interface with the general directions/hopes of what I'm trying to accomplish.Attachment 94675
And the code I ported over:
I totally know why and how it's failing -- it worked perfectly for my test. I just don't know how to adapt it to not be failing here.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated! Thanks !

GoTo endend
errbox:
MsgBox("There was an error, please make sure you click ONLY in the preview window when using the auto-setter.", MsgBoxStyle.Critical, "Error!")
