Oops, dropped my 'r' around here someplace-- don't anyone move!
My gun always makes a lot of noise when I shoot it, JTT. It's an old nickle-plated US Army issue Smith & Wesson .38 revolver.

when by if, that was the conditional use of when i was talking about and I still have further questions, but i dont know if i can refine them mister micawber, but im going to ask again what i asked first and that i still dont know:
when do i have to use -ing ending verb after a When
when do i have to use the infinitive form of a verb after a when

Please capitalize your 'I's and consider the use of more punctuation. Your questions are more difficult to interpret than they should be, given your level of English ability.
It seems to me that 'ing' forms are used with clauses simultaneous activities
'When using a knife, keep your thumbs back.'--
And that the infinitive is used in noun clauses--
