Mar 3, 2009
I im trying to set a time so that the user of my quiz has to do their 20 questions in 40 minutes. i actually have a few questions about the timer. How do you make it so that you canrun this same timer over everyform and then make it stop on the last form? is it possible for you to convert the timer so that instead of it running in milliseconds it runs in minutes?

I'm in need of a timer that runs a process every 31.25 milliseconds. Thus, after 768 "ticks" have gone exactly 24 seconds.The control "Timer" that exists in Visual Studio does not accept decimal values.So I had to round the value of the range to 31 or 32. But this raises a problem since the end of the 768 ticks there is a difference of half a second or more. And I need to run the 768 ticks in exactly 24 seconds.I've been researching, and I read some things about the "High-Resolution Timer. " But I did not understand exactly how to use it, and how to set your interval to 31.25 mils, and do that every period of this interval to run the code.

Timer1.Tick
Timer1.interval = 100
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
Dim Vals3(3)

Since this version is free and allows the creation of EXEs, what are its limitations? I'm going to attempt to convert my vb5 game using this edition. Other than the standard labels & buttons, my game uses the winsock & tab control. Are these included in the express version? Is there an option to convert vb5 code to vb.net? If not, how different is the language? Are the if/thens, loops, variable assignment still the same?

I am trying to change forms with timers, but after I got beyond 2 forms the timers would not work for a 3rd form. One time it did display third form but showed second form right after it.

I am trying to create a simple countdown timer using vb 2005 express edition. I think the code is fairly simple but I have fallen at the first hurdle. How do you display the result, i.e. which control do you use? Tried label and textbox but both return the error: "Value of type [integer or long] cannot be converted to [textbox or label].

I have downloaded VS Express 2010 edition from Microsoft website. I want to convert a VB 6.0 project into VB.Net using VS Express 2010. Is it possible to do it without the "Upgrade Wizard"? How much will it cost me to get basic VS 2010 Professional with the "Upgrade Wizard" option? What other tools (that I might require during conversion) are missing in the VS Express edition?

I'm just using the default SQL Server Express in my vb 2008 express edition as my database server for my database operation. When I tried to update the records on my table I got a runtime error which indicates the error on this line 'myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()'and it highlights a yellow background on it. The runtime error says "SqlException was unhandled: An expression of non-boolean type specified in a context where a condition is expected, near 'Number'. ".

My company currently has vb.net 2003. I am tasked with evaluating vb.net 2008. And suggest if upgrading to 2008 edition is necessary or if it will be beneficial. For this purpose I decided to experiment with vb.net 2008 express. I have some questions regarding this.
1) Will vb.net 2008 express edition will give me idea about new features etc. ?
2) If I install vb.net 2008 express edition on machine which has vb.net 2003, will it cause any problems to vb.net 2003 ?
3) If I code in vb.net 2008 express edition, on upgrading will this same code work ?

The radio recently broke in our bedroom and as a result my missus now listen to various radio stations through her laptop. She moans that visiting various pages and clicking the 'listen' link is a bit of a pain.(Note to self: Must buy new radio!)In the meantime, I have made a 'radio player' in VB 2008 Express, which is nothing more than 6 buttons down the left hand side of the 'player' I have created and a Web Browser Control on the right hand side.Clicking each button links to the relevant player of the station she wants to listen to. (Being a newbie to VB and programming, I'm quite proud with what I've achieved so far!!)Anyway, one station I do link to gives an "Are you sure you want to navigate away from this page" prompt: [URL]Is there a way to suppress this message in VB, or even auto-answer OK somehow?
The other sites I have linked to do not display this message, they just navigate away quite happily. Clicking OK on the prompt is no real hardship either, I hear you say, but in the interests of usability, I would just like it to navigate away from the site/player without prompting.Remember, I'm using Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition.

I am a competent (but not much more) VB6.0 programmer. I'm still developing software in VB6 and want to upgrade to VB.NET. I primarily write simple software to control proprietary hardware which is called by Active X. I need to figure out how to do this in VB.NET before I can switch over to the new version.In VB6, I connect to the VB6 by adding references to the DLLs (under project / references). When I load the main form, I declare:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Set o = New CBEDCSApp
End Sub

Iv'e been away from Visual Basic for the past 3 or 4 years so I am a bit vague on the details that I am looking for.
I got myself my first programming job at the company that I work for and I start Monday.
The company has little programming knowledge (well I assumed this as they said they do not have a dedicated programming IDE at my interview) and relies on ad-hoc VBA scripts to perform necessary processing on data. This is all fine and I can deal with that but there is a project that I wish to work on and I think a standalone dedicated application would be much better than extending Excel with VBA.
Now after being with the company for 10+ years, I know they are conservative at spending money so asking them to buy Visual Studio is not really an option so I'm going to suggest that instead of using VBA, I will design an application using Visual Basic Express.
All I need to know is, if there are any kind of limitation to database accessing with the express editions? (Iv'e only ever used OLEDB connected to small MS Access files) I do not know what type of database the company uses yet, but I do know they use ODBC to connect to it, and rely on Sage to do 90% of their work.
