Feb 28, 2009
below i have the form which i made in access, its BIG, REALLY BIGI am going to try and recreate this form using VB and MySQL, the question is how?The purpose of this form is to display all locations ready for someone to enter in information into them, normally the first field in each table has a unique name (which is set as the default value for that field), in the morning, the only field which is altered is a sign on field, which in access, the user clicks and the time is entered.

I have managed to develop a form which allows me to add a record to an access database using Adonet. The last few fields added are populated when i place the mouse over a floor plan image on the form (provide geographical location) and capture the x y coordinate. Prob im having is how on another form i get the points to automatically re-draw on a form with the same content (floor plan on it. I can obviously retrieve the data set using a data adapter/data table just cant make it draw on top of the graphic automatically.

I have a picture box on a form that changes size as needed. Both by resizing the form and by code.How can I resize the form automatically if I resize the picturebox in code. The client area of the picture box should not be clipped.Right now the picture box is set to dock fill, but if the code resizes it, the form does not follow it. Is there a binding somewhere I can use?

Basically I want to move my mouse to the coords that is received based on the location of a certain coloured pixel. I can get the coords of the pixel but when using them on mouse position, the mouse position is based on the entire screen rather than the form. How could I change the position coords based on the form rather than the entire screen. E.G. If a certain coloured pixel is 2,2 in a form and I put that as the mouse position, it would go outside the form but I dont want that. I want it to hover of the pixel coords
This is my
Dim bmp As Bitmap = DirectCast(PictureBox1.Image, Bitmap)
For x As Integer = 0 To bmp.Width - 1
For y As Integer = 0 To bmp.Height - 1
If bmp.GetPixel(x, y) = (Color.FromArgb(108, 90, 60)) Then
Windows.Forms.Cursor.Position =
End If
Next

How can I add a new form to my project that is based on an existing form in the same project?
I want to add a new form to my project with the same control layout as an existing form in my project, and then just change the label text and so on.
I tried to just copy and paste, then rename the pasted .vb file, but get an error when I try to open it for modification.

In a vb 2010 project, I have 2 win forms: Form1 and Form2.
In the Form1 class there is a server-based timer: when the "elapsed event" fires, then I update the text of a Label1 on the Form2. A very simple code:

I have 2 forms main_frm and copying_frm. In main_frm, there is a list view that is populated with file names. The user then clicks save and all the files in the list are copied to a folder that they choose using a folder browser dialog. When this happens, I do copying_frm.ShowDialog() to display the copying_frm. The copying_frm contains a progress bar and a cancel button. I can get the progress bar to indicate how much has been copied. But that freezes up the application. To get around this, I create a new thread (called copyingThread) that copies the files. When that thread runs though, it can't access the waitingList_lvw in main_frm. For example, in the function that the copyingThread executes, if I have this line of code: MsgBox(main_frm.waitingList_lvw.Items.Count.ToString()) the result is 0. Also, I don't get any errors and no files are copied. How do I access waitingList_lvw in main_frm from a thread called copyThread that was created in copying_frm?

What is the best way to access a value of a control within a form outside of the form class. I have a lot of functions defined in a module, one of these functions requires a series of values from controls in my main form such as the FolderBrowserDialog.SelectedPath element. I understand that these cannot be accessed in the format form.FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath and that they need to be accessed using a delegate. This is the part I am stuck with.

I have a system that I need to connect to an access database. Once connected, I have a form that allows a new customer to be entered into text boxes. I need to then take the data in the text boxes and save them in the database table.On a similar note, I have another form, where the customer details can be updated. Basically, by searching for a Customer reference number in the database, the form is populated with the table data. Then I want a button that will update/overwrite any chages made.

I have designed my app for multiple gridviews. When a user double clicks a row it opens up the data in a modal form and when they commit changes the row gets updated.While they have that modal window open they can not go back to the grid.But I have a alerts/messages window always running (like outlook tasks). As soon as I open the modal window I can not access that tasks window. (Default behaviour)How can I open the modal form and still let the user access/view the tasks window while they work on the modal window.(I tried creating it in a differant thread, but got a lot of cross thread errors so decided to abandon that approach.I thought that 2 modal form can run at the same time as long as they have differant parents. But aparently the main GUI thread pauses as soon as you open a modal window on it.

I'm having an issue with my app where IE will get brought to the front of the screen when I am switching between forms. Basically I have a form with the man menu which consist of a few command buttons that will start up another form once a user clicks on the button. I do not want the users loading up multiple forms in my application, so once they load one form I end up hiding the main form. So my code looks as shown below when a button is clicked.

In Access, when you build a new query, you can add tables to the view, which is then represented by individual windows that are somehow embedded/constrained to the upper portion of the query designer. I know then typically, windows are free floating anywhere on the screen, but somehow they manage to keep it confined to a certain container area. It also appears that the windows never get a real "focus" as the title bar is always a faded shade of blue, yet, you can still click on them and move them around.

I hope this is in the right category. If its not, direct me for where it should go. I'm quite a, what you would call "noob" to visual basic. I'm trying to make a web-based (LOCAL ONLY) Tech Request system for my LOCAL machines (Only 1 noted for use). I want a login area (I think I know what to do for that.), a open request area, a OPENED requests area, a way to CLOSE requests (by staff only), and and started/not started field for staff to use.

Visual Basic Project - Student Check In Form using an Access database backend This form needs to draw information from an Access database containg tables for STUDENT, INSTRUCTOR, and SECTION. These all need to have primary keys and ids. When (the user) clicks on the drop down box that displays all the sections:
{Table Tennis 1, Table Tennis 2, Table Tennis 3, Billiards 1, Billiards 2, Billiards 3}This should populate the listbox or datagrid from the STUDENT table with the Students that have the same SECTIONID as the SECTION selected in the drop down menu above.
After the Student list has been populated (the user) clicks on a student name in the listbox/datagrid and this inserts that student into the CHECKEDIN table that has a datagrid/listbox associated with it.
This is a great project to practice connecting a database to Visual Studio 2008 .net and playing with the data that has been pulled in. You could use SQL instead of Access.

I'm creating a windows application form in vs 2005 for a client.. It's a data-tracking application. I have a few questions.The client wants a logon screen to be added into the application (at least any way or method that'll ensure that security was applied). My question in regards to this topic would be; Is it necessary to create a logon screen (or even a user authorization) for a windows form? I realize that in a webform project, security should always be considered and should be applied in all areas. Although with a windows form, I thought you can authorize who can gain access to the application by defining which workstations to install the final production release of the application (when its time to deploy the file). Is this correct?
My next question is, what is the best method to exporting data from EXCEL to SQL tables? I have many Excel files that I'd like to take portions of data from each file and insert them to there proper table.
The last question is about deploying a windows form application. As you can tell, I don't have much experience when it comes to developing Windows Form projects. Anyways back to the topic, When deploying a project, does it provide a .EXE file (installation package) to install the application on the workstation? Or is it a .EXE file of the application, where you can run it and no need to install anything?

I have a form called FrmPracDetails, which has details of practices and each practice has a unique prac_no populated on the form in the text box called TxtPracNo. Now, I have another form called FrmPayHistory. This form has a datagrid called DgvPayHistory, which is loaded with all the payment history of all practices. It has also a field called prac_no and stores the unique prac_no.
What I want to do is, when a user is in FrmPracDetails, lets say prac_no 1115, then you open the FrmPayHistory. Only the payment history of that respective prac_no should be seen. Presently, it brings all the practices and their payment history. I have added a textbox (TextBox1) in the FrmPayHistory which links and displays the prac_no from FrmPracDetails with the following code:
Private Sub FrmPayHistory_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Me.TblPayHistoryTableAdapter.Fill(Me.TblPayHistory._TblPayHistory)
Me.TxtPracno.Text = FrmPracDetails.TxtPracNo.Text
End Sub
