Locking WriteProcessMemory with a TickBox

[*M*]

This is the code for one of the buttons in my app:

 Private Sub Command8_Click()
If Hooked = True Then
  WriteProcessMemory ProcessHandle, &580316, 386, 2, 0&
End If
End Sub

The problem is the memory address that I write to resets itself after a while and I have to click the button again, is there anyway to lock the memory address that I write to? Or just have the code refresh itself at a set interval?
I would like to achieve this with a tick box if possible

Or just have the code refresh itself at a set interval?

this is how I freeze values, should work.

If you are familiar with API Hooking you can do a Hook on the WriteProcessMemory function and check if it is your Address that someone wants to write to.
If so, just block it.

Thanks for you replies, I did a little more digging and came up with this

A timer which locks the code on:

Private Sub Timer2_Timer()
If Timer2.Enabled = True Then
Call Command8_Click
End If
End Sub

and Option buttons for on:

Private Sub Option2_Click()
Timer2.Enabled = True
End Sub

And Off

Private Sub Option1_Click()
Timer2.Enabled = False
If Hooked = True Then
  WriteProcessMemory ProcessHandle, &H555216, 0, 4, 0&
End If
End Sub

The off button turns off the timer and then sets the code back to its default value

You can lock this thread now if you see no use for it being open.

That's lame. If you want a value to be frozen, then make the code (of the target) reflect it. Use code caves, hijack/nop/whatever the command that changes it.

w/e, I've only just started VB.
