I've created a Custom Control, and I will be placing a large number of instances of that Custom Control on my xaml page. In working with that Custom Control in the VB Code Behind, how do I do the following?
How do I reference the name of the Custom Control (in my VB code) which was clicked with the MouseLeftButtonDown event? For example, if I have 10 instances of my Custom Control in xaml, each with a different x:name (say 1-10), when a particular instance is clicked, how can I see which one was clicked? I've tried a number of things including e.OriginalSource.Name (which returns the component within the control which was clicked and not the name of the instance of the control). My Custom Control consists of numerous parts and pieces (Rectangles, Lines, Text, etc). Each of these items is a part of my layer. In VB code, once I can reference a particular Control, how can I hide or change certain parts of that control (such as hiding a Line, and changing the text). Also, I need to modify more than just the control which was clicked, so I need to be able to access properties of all of the controls, not just what was clicked. For example, if I click Control instance Test1, I also need to modify Test2, Test3, and Test5 in some way.
Here is some test code I through together as part of a Silverlight project using MS Blend 2. My control is much larger, and I need 200 - 250 instances/copies of that custom control, so I really need to know which control instance/copy was clicked.

I am trying to get a set of records from the database to show. This page is setup like a search page with two combos for the data, one for a location, and four for different characteristics. Using this data I created a SQL command text that I checked against the database and it works as a script file. I put this in my code with the changes needed for it to run in VB.Net and I am getting an ObjectNull Reference not set to an instance of an object. It is being caught by my try statement so I only have the line number. Here is the code where it is happening.

I'm using MVVM.
<ItemsControl ItemsSource="{Binding AllIcons}" Tag="{Binding}">
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>

I'm able to capture the command. However, I want to execute the command binding when the mouse enters the stack panel, not when I click a button.
I have a map with a MapItemsControl in my WP7 app that contains pushpins bound to items in a collection of custom classes. The pushpins are bound to properties of the item in the collection via a DataTemplate.When an item is added to or removed from the collection, all pins display correctly, with properties as per bindings, but when just an items' properties are modified, the UI does not update. The bindings just seem to get values from the source item upon loading, but I'd like them to keep the UI elements updated when the source collection items' properties are updated.To illustrate, I'll create a similar example:
Heres a custom class:
Public Class Box
Property CurrentColor As Color
Property Location As GeoCoordinate
End Class
[code]....
Whenever I add or remove items from TempBoxes, the pins all render as they should (e.g. if I specify a color in the collection item, the pin shows the color).Tapping on the item triggers the BoxTouched sub, which causes the item's color to change in the collection, but the UI doesn't change (pin color stays the same).To get the UI to update the color, I have to get it to render the pins again, by adding something like this to BoxTouched:
BoxControl.ItemsSource = Nothing
BoxControl.ItemsSource = TempBoxes

View 2 RepliesAm in the process of architecting a new windows forms application, and I intend to use Visual Basic 2008 and SQL Server Express 2005. This is my first application in .Net and I really want to observe the best OOD & OOP principles to create an application that is easy to maintain and extend (add new functionality). My issue is in regard to databinding on the UI. From experience, what do you guys recommend to use for databinding? Should I return datasets/datatables from my Business Layer and bind these to UI controls or should I return Business Objects and bind these to UI controls? And what are the pros and cons of each approach?

I am using custom textboxes and I need to be able to set the Text on txb1 based on the Text of txb2. I have simplied my code to the following:
Public Class customtextbox
Inherits TextBox
Public Event ControlReset()
[Code]....
So, when txb1 looses focus, if its Text is "fried", then it sets off txb2's ProcessAlert function. I had tried to change the value of txb2 Text in ProcessAlert function, but didnt work, so I tried to get it to raise an event instead, which then tries to set the Text property. However I still cant set txb2's Text property. The Text property seems to be set for the duration of the "life" of the Event handler. When I step through the forms controls within the Event handler, the changed Text value is there, but not outside of the Event handler.
Can VisualStudio VisualBasic be opened with a command line argument specifying a custom constant for conditional coding? Instead of specifying it at "properties > Compile > Adv Compile Opts > Custom constants", I would like to just run a .BAT file that opens VisualStudio/VisualBasic and my source code with the "Custom constant" already set for the conditional coding.

We have a ASP.NET web application written in VB.NET where we build content programmatically during the Init event.We make extensive use of user controls, building them on the fly, and I now want to start including SilverLight content.Is there an easy way of embedding a SilverLight application in a control, and then instantiating the whole thing in code, in the same way as you'd programmatically add ordinary ASP.NET controls to a page?The SilverLight component itself works fine when added to a page using the <object> tag but I really want to be able to reuse it elsewhere in code.Since I'm expecting use of SilverLight to increase in our application, and the asp:Silverlight control seems now to be deprecated, I'm looking for an alternative way of wrapping the content.
View 1 RepliesI've created a custom control which consists of two radio buttons with their appearance set to "Button". This control is meant to act like two toggle buttons with an "On" toggle button and an "Off" toggle button.

I have a MenuItem of a context menu of a Grid and its IsEnabled property is bound to MyProperty. It works fine until I actually click on the event handler of the MenuItem, which has no code in it. After I have clicked on the MenuItem the dataBinding no longer works.

First: I have a numericUpDown and a class that are bound.
Me.percent.DataBindings.Clear()Me.percent.DataBindings.Add("Value", options, "percent")When I change the numericUpDown the underlying class seems not to update. I have to click outside the numericUpDown to force validation and force syncing. This is very counterintuitive and will cause problems. How can I make sure the underlying data object gets the new value on valuechange rather than validate?
Second: After I change the numericUpDown I have an option that serializes the underlying data in an xml file. The underlying XML file does not always get the right data. To figure out what is happening I added a button that outputs the values of the underlying data object and it is always getting updated. In other words...the control and the object values always agree. The serialize
