Dim fct(20, 1), crlf$


Private Sub Form_Load()

 Form1.Visible = True
 
 For a = 100 To 999
   For b = a To 999
     pr = a * b
     ps$ = LTrim$(Str(pr))
     pal = 1
     For i = 1 To Len(ps) / 2
       If Mid(ps, i, 1) <> Mid(ps, Len(ps) + 1 - i, 1) Then pal = 0: Exit For
     Next
     If pal Then
       If pr >= Max Then
         Max = pr
         Text1.Text = Text1.Text & a & Str(b) & Str(pr) & crlf
       End If
       DoEvents
     End If
