End SubHi...I am new to VB.NET programming. Please help me to find my
mistakes in my code, because I do not find them: thanky you...juvi

I would start by putting a break point at each line and check that the
calculated values are within reason. Like the -15 for the rectangle...is
this reasonable?

Typically, OutOfMemoryExceptions arise from recursive calls that are not
exited properly. I would recommend checking out your CallStack and seeing
if there is any looping going on that you didn't expect. You may want to
enable the non-user code in the call stack as well because it can be something
happening in the framework you weren't expecting.
