line, circle + with..end with = deadly combination?

I read in VB help on line and circle method and it showed a warning now to put them inside a with..end with.

Well i did that alot and found no error with that.

Interestingly, I looked up "with... end with" topic and there is no warning whatsoever regarding it's usage with line and circle method.

Can anyone explain what's happening? thanx! Just wanna put my curious mind to rest. :P

No, it isnt mentioned in the help file for With...End With but it is mentioned in the help file for Line and Circle as one might expect:

Quote:

From the great MSDN
This method cannot be used in an With…End With block.

Certain methods cannot be used with "With-End". This applies especially to graphical methods that have point coordinates in the form "(x,y)".

with picture1
.circle (x,y),r 'will raise error
end with

with picture1
picture1.circle (x,y),r 'perfectly fine
end with
