Adding New Row Of Controls Linked To An Array?
Jun 3, 2011
I am trying to make a form that is blank and will add in 2 comboboxes, a textbox, 2 buttons and a checkbox next to each other in a row. I want the controls to be part of an array, so that all controls on a row are associated with that array number.I am currently able to make the first row appear when the form is loaded, however when i click one of the buttons(which are used to create thenext row of controls) it comes up with an error stating that the index was outside the array bounds.
Here is the code I currently have:
Public Class frmWhere
Public SQLString3 As String
Public locationy As Integer
[code]....

One section of my latest project idea involves linking several form controls to the Google map (distance calculating section), which is area I'm not familiar with.
What I would like to achieve is following: (VB2010) I would like to link two combo boxes on my form to Google map (Start Address and End Address)as well as two labels representing distance & ETA time to Google map (Suggested route, option No.1, highlighted section).
As soon as user select values from combo drop downs on my form, code performs search trough Google web page and return values to my labels on a form. At the same time database would be populated with a same search values (Start Address, End Address, Distance in Km and ETA time)
Link to a web page seems to be a very common request within community members but I did not find anything similar to what I would like to do, so it makes me think that my project idea is going to be" hard bone". I do not need Google web page displayed on my form in a split container or in any other way.

I have been working on a number of card games. Important, of course, is shuffling the deck.I have come up with a few different ways to do this. Currently I do not shuffle, but to deal a card, I lay out the deck in order, selecting a random number between 1 and the number of cards remaining and selecting that card. I then remove that card from the deck so that another card can be picked.There are two main ways to do this, and I am trying to figure out which one is optimal.The first is to have an array of cards. When one card is dealt, a new array is formed with that card missing. I kind of like keeping the array size exactly the size of the deck, but perhaps this is not efficient. So, the first array has length n and the new array after the card is dealt has length n-1. VB.Net makes it simple to change array sizes around like this.

I cannot work out the correct formatting of the above type addressing for a textbox in a (sort of) array of textboxes such as
textbox_1
textbox_2
textbox_3
etc.
The controls are on Tabs but I don't think I need to include the Tab as a container control, just refer directly to the textbox on the form, but I cannot work out how this is done in VB .NET format. In VB6 it was relatively straightforward but VB .NEt seems it is different. Can anyone help me with the correct way to formulate

I've created a code that will add a control on runtime.
Sub Button_AddNewGradeEquivalent_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button_AddNewGradeEquivalent.Click
Dim newGradeRepresentation As New TextBox
Dim newGradeCondition As New ComboBox
Dim newGradePercentage As New TextBox
TextBoxItems += 1

I have been working on a VB 2005 applications for the past week and now I'm not able to add a control to the form. It's a very basic app with only one form and I can add the control in design mode but it does not appear on the form in run mode and is on the verge of driving me nuts. Pretty new to programming by the way.

I am trying to add controls to a Panel in a loop, but for some reason they are being added from the bottom up instead of top down.In a little test program I am running this
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
For i As Integer = 1 To 10[code]....
And this is the result I get ... the controls are added starting at the bottom. I need them to start at the top of the panel, with each new control being added under the previous one. If I remove the Dock statement, then the controls just get added on top of each other.

I am converting a VBA program to VB. I need to create controls at runtime as I don't want the user to be limited to the amount of information that they can input. I am converting this statement in vba:
Dim CF As CashFlowControl
CF = New CashFlowControl
CF.Cashflow = Form1.Controls.Add("Forms.Textbox.1", "Cashflow" & Cashflows.Count + 1, True)
With CF.Cashflow
.Left = Form1.Label2.Left
.Width = Form1.Label2.Width
.Top = Form1.Label2.Top + Form1.Label2.Height + (Form1.Label2.Height * Cashflows.Count) + 5
.Visible = True
.Text = 0
.Text = Format(CF.Cashflow.Text, "$#,##0.00")
End With
I have tried:
Dim txtbox As New TextBox
CF.CashFlow = Form1.Controls.Add(txtbox)
With CF.CashFlow
.Name = "CashFlow" & Cashflows.Count + 1
.Left = Form1.Label2.Left
.Width = Form1.Label2.Width
.Top = Form1.Label2.Top + Form1.Label2.Height + (Form1.Label2.Height * Cashflows.Count) + 5
.Height = Form1.Label2.Height
.Visible = True
End With
I've also tried:
CF.CashFlow = Form1.Controls.Add("vbtextbox","Cashflow" & Cashflows.count + 1)
With CF.CashFlow
.Left = Form1.Label2.Left
.Width = Form1.Label2.Width
.Top = Form1.Label2.Top + Form1.Label2.Height + (Form1.Label2.Height * Cashflows.Count) + 5
.Height = Form1.Label2.Height
.Visible = True
End With
I still get the little wavy underline under the text after the "Form1.Controls.Add" statement and the error says "Value of Type 'string' cannot be converted to 'system.windows.forms.control." I also get the error "Too many arguments to 'Public Overridable Sub Add(value as systems.windows.forms.control)"
What am I missing here? This seems to be the way it is done in all of the examples that I have found on this site.

In the helpfiles of Visual Studio 2008 I read control arrays are no longer supported. There is an example for the new situation but then you need to hard code the names of all the controls beforehand.I do not know how many controls I need, could be one or 5000 (think simple image browser). Is it still possible to create something like that or should I change to a different programming language like Phyton? At the moment I work around it by using a browser control and then manipulate the <img> tags but I'm puzzeld as to why this functionality was removed and if there's a solution to the problem.Another thing I don't understand is where the app goes when it's installed with 'Click once'. It dissappears completely, doesn't show up in 'Program Files', can not be found by the search function but it *is* somewhere because you can start it form the Start menu. However, I use data which is in a subfolder of the program folder, which I nor my program can find any more after the app is installed. The program runs but it can't find any place to put/get its data so in the end it doesn't work.
I work around it by *not* installing the program but have people just run it after unpacking the downloaded folder. This works great but I wonder how long this will be the case until Microsoft disables this possibility? I have no idea why they would, but I also have no idea why they did remove the functionality I mentioned above. I already changed to PHP and MySQL because I had to throw away my carefully built W2K+MSAccess image database a few years ago and after installing Vista Visual Studio 2005 was a goner. OK, I upgraded but then no control arrays any more and now they hide the apps when you install them? Why on earth would they do that?

I am trying to create and remove a series of controls programatically. The user will have a numeric updown to pick a number. The program will then create a bunch of duplicate controls based on whatever number they pick on the fly.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub NumericUpDown1_ValueChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles numberDebts.ValueChanged[code].....
The creation part works just fine.As the number is toggled upward a new label is created.However whenever I remove labels it acts very strangely.The first time I bring it down it works just fine. Then the next 3 do nothing but the 4th removes another line.I can also toggle back and forth and it will eventually remove the label. So for example.
Starts with 1 selected - 1 label visible (1)
Change to 2 - 2 labels visible (1-2)
Change to 3 - 3 labels visible (1-3)[code]....
If I toggle back and forth between 2 and 3 eventually label 4 will go away.I want only 1- my numeric up down value to be displayed and have everything else after that removed.

I am very interested to see the answer as I would like to know the significant differences (if any) of generally using one more than the other. In a few days, I will be starting my Java programming class to familiarize myself with the language.I do know that Java uses objects.My question/discussion is not necessarily related to .NET (although in a way, it is); my question is more about what is a better practice and why.Is it more proper to declare buttons and such through runtime rather than designer? Is it just more work typing everything? Or does build and run much faster?

Is it possible to have a custom control (inherits from Control) and add sub-controls to it (like, a label for example)? Basically I want a composite control. I know controls can contain other controls, but if I try to add a control to MyBase.Controls, this doesn't work because that's readonly.

I am working on a project for a handheld in Visual Studio 2008 where I need to add a group of labels to a panel that correspond to a record on the database. The record is a "Pass/Fail" Record. So, if the record is a "Fail", the failed items will be added below the main group of labels; therefore, many child groups of labels will be added below the main group, which is theoretically the header record. I am using a second panel to add the failed items. My issue is how to dynamically add, name, and position the failed item labels and panels. Below, I have included a sample of what I am trying to accomplish.

I'm trying to add a group of four radio buttons to a form. There are other radio buttons so I'm grouping them by placing them on a Panel. However using the below I just get the panel added to the form without the radio buttons... Am I doing something wrong here?
Dim arrRButton(3) As RadioButton
arrRButton(0) = New RadioButton
arrRButton(1) = New RadioButton

I am adding a several controls to a groupbox dynamically, but I can only see one of them. I am changing the location for each one just a little so so they should all be visible. When I count the rows in "dtOptionGroupOption it returns the correct #.
'Starting location for Options.

Code:
Private Sub btnMonSet_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnMonSet.Click
My.Settings.tweetMon = tbMon.Text
If tbddOccurrence.Text = "Just Once" Then
If cbToday1.Checked = True Then
lblPanel.LblScheduledTweet1.whenDate = Date.Today
[Code] .....
The goal of this code is to add a control to a panel in runtime. This MUST be done in runtime for the purpose I intend. The problem is that, when I add a second control, the first one disappears.

I have been set a project from school to design snake in VB.Net but i am struggling to dynamically add the user control which acts as one of the dots in the body of the snake. Every time i add a dot on to the snake the previous vanishes. I assume this is due to me overwriting the previous one by creating a new instance of the object but i cannot find a way of adding a new one in.[code]I have tried using body(i) and other ways of adding a new instance of the object but am stuck.The subroutine will be called up when a new control is needed.

I'm trying to dynamically add a control to a form from an event that is raised from an asynchronious socket's thread.
In other words, when I get an OnDataArrival event is raised from the socket thread, I raise DataArrival event in my form. The form's DataArrival sub then tries to create and parent a control.
Whenever I try this, I get the following error: Controls created in one thread cannot be parented to a control in a different thread.I know a bit about delegates and invoking, and I think that's how to solve this problem, but I don't know where to declare the delegates and how to use them.
Ideally, I want a delegate/invoker to handle the DataArrival sub in the socket class so that everything that happens after that will be thread safe. Can this be done?

When I add a control to a TLP in design mode several new properties get added to the control, such as ColumnSpan, RowSpan, etc, which can then be set in the properties window. If I add a control to a TLP in code these properties don't seem to be available. how to set these properties in code if it's even possible?

Updating a VB6 prog in VS2005 on Windows 7. The prog has an MDI + child forms and there are a number of content types, with varying numbers of controls being set up and positioned from setup files.On forms which are not child forms I can easily add controls at run time like this:
Dim lab As New Label
With lab
.Left = 0 : .Top = 0
.Width = 800 : .Height = 800
[code]....
This doesn't work on a child form, no label is visible. Can't see any obvious problem in quickwatch.
