This is fine but what about when you want to copy from TextBox2 to TextBox1 or when you want to copy only part of the highlighted text? Does anyone know what i can use to get it properly working?

This the code that I quickly bashed out to do a find functionality of a textbox. The problem is the last line of code. If I use the last line of code the the Source Form.s textbox is highlighted however if the Source Form is Maximised then the Find form will be hehind the Source Form. I don't want that to happen.

I'm trying to make a game, pretty much a game like memory where you flip over a card and find the match. But because of how many buttons I need I was wondering if it was possible to show the picture in a message, all the pictures are funny motivational posters from photobucket so I want the player to be able to read the dialog. I've already tried doing
Dim picture as string = "1.jpg"
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
MessageBox.Show(picture)
End Sub
but when I click the button nothing happens and yes the name of the picture in my bin folder is "1". I am using Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition.
I've got a grid view. I want it to say "you have nothing to show" if there are no details.

View 5 RepliesI have wrote a program that do a bit of calculations that takes about 10 min to complete, therefore I need to show a progress to user. I used a percentage in status bar to show the current status of program.
The problem is for updating the number after each iteration I use me.refresh to show the percentage. BUT whenever the program lose the focus for example working on other stuffs, the program cannot update the percentage anymore. And above the form shows not responding but do the job until get the result.
I am creating a question and answer form and I have created a couple of error message boxes that will show up on different events. With the first set of code below it is supposed to show up when a user doesn't check any radio buttons and clicks the next button, however when the message appears even if they click ok it moves onto the next question without letting them chose an answer. For the second set of code it asks if a user wants to retry but even if they click X to cancel the message it still reverts back to the main page.
If rbAnswer1.Checked + rbAnswer2.Checked + rbAnswer3.Checked = False Then MsgBox("You must select an answer to continue.", _
MsgBoxStyle.Critical Or MsgBoxStyle.Question, _ "Error")
MsgBox("Are you sure you wish to retry? All current progress will be lost", _
MsgBoxStyle.Question Or MsgBoxStyle.Question, _
"PowerPoint Quiz")
I am not sure if I need to write an if statement or just add the line MsgBox("Update Succesful") but with doing that there is no actual check to see if any change has been made.
Unless, my code is in a Try Cast to catch any exceptions, could I add the line like I said above, then in "Catch as Exception" add the lines MsgBox("Update Failed" - ex.message)
