View 1 RepliesAdding A Menu Item?
Apr 17, 2011I'm trying to make a program that adds a menu item when right clicking files.I got a C# code here:[URL] and converted it to VB.
It's working perfectly but the trouble is, it adds a menu item to folders and not files.
These are the registry entries i added:
Private Const MenuName As String = "FoldershellNewMenuOption"
Private Const Command As String = "FoldershellNewMenuOptioncommand"
convert them so it adds the menu item to a file?
Adding The Run As Administrator Menu Item
Apr 2, 2010i've written a database program which runs fine from the ide (vs 2008). when i install this program, all database operations do not work. i tried running it as an administrator using an admin command prompt, it worked. now for my less tech savvy clients, is it possible that when they right click the programs icon they can use the 'run as administrator' menu item? how can i achieve this. if it's too much to implement, will moving the database from the application path to, say, documents, solve this issue?

Winforms Menu Item Shortcuts Overriding Default Shortcuts?
Aug 19, 2010In a VB.NET Winforms application, I have a form that contains both a datagridview and a textbox. I have some menu item entries that have shortcuts of Ctrl + X, Ctrl + C, and Ctrl + V that operate on the datagridview. However, these override the default cut, copy, and paste shortcuts for the textbox. How can I make the menu shortcuts only apply when the datagridview has focus?
View 2 RepliesAdding Item To A Listbox From A System.Timer
Oct 1, 2009For the last couple of days I been trying to add items to a listbox from another class within a system.timer.

.net - Winforms Menu As Array?
Jun 20, 2009I know it most likely possible to access a winforms menu like an array but I am not seeing it in the menu designer of VS2008? What I mean is, my app has a typical menu bar across the top, with multiple items on each drop down. As it is written (I inherited this code), each menu item is a separate name, i.e.
myMenuOption1MenuItem
myMenuOption2MenuItem
myMenuOption3MenuItem
myMenuOption4MenuItem
[Code]...
Obviously I could set/unset each menu item by name, but for a lot of reasons I'd prefer to use loops.

VS 2008 Access XP 2002 Report Menu Via WinForms App?
Mar 8, 2012Been casually working on getting my users out of the DB completely. We use a vb.net app I created as a front-end but there are many reports that were built in Access and I want to give my users a way to open Access and run the report via my WinForms app.
Have gotten as far as being able to open an instance of Access and do what I need to do. Where I left off was running into a problem with not being able to tell if an instance of the msaccess.exe process is running and use it instead of opening another.

View 3 RepliesInsert A New Right Click Context Menu Item To The Existing Right Click Context Menu For The Active Window?
May 15, 2010VB express 2008 .net 3.5 or .net 4.0 VB express 2010?I have written application to convert RTF to HTML. The main Purpose of the application is to copy VS code to the clipboard and covert it then put it back into the clipboard as a HTML Document so that it can be pasted into a HTML document such as Windows Live Mail. I found that code copied and pasted is spaced out in in the wrong positions.
The applications works perfect with no bugs so far. I then asked Myself how to go about doing the copy with the least amount of operator interaction. So I added an Icon to the Icon Tray with a right click menu to use to convert once the Rich Text Format was copied to the clipboard. This works fine except you have Five steps, Select the text, Copy to clipboard, Right Click the icon, Select the Converter and Paste. The normal is three steps.
To this the best solution is to add a context menu item to the active form such as the RTF editor or window. So that when you select the Rich Text to copy and right click on the form to bring up that menu then to Just Select the menu Item such as "Copy RT and Convert" I searched and found about 544000 Items and tried to restrict down to no avail. I read until I finally gave up. I did not find any code examples of this. Almost every thing I found related to the web or some other explicit document like Excel and not to the Various windows that could be active with RT in it.
how do you add a context menu item to the context menu of an active rich text format window such as WordPad or VB?I have test in my application that tests to see if it is a RTF in the clipboard so if it is not the converter does nothing.

View 3 RepliesAdding An Empty Row To A Databound Listbox Using Linq2SQL And Winforms?
Sep 28, 2011what is the most robust method for adding a empty row (to select "nothing") to a ListBox?
Dim List = Enumerable.Repeat(New TABLE With {.Text = "", .ID = -1}, 1).AsQueryable().Union(From t In mainctx.TABLEs)
ddlMangelKategorie.DisplayMember = "Text"
ddlMangelKategorie.ValueMember = "ID"
ddlMangelKategorie.DataSource = List.ToList
But this has some drawbacks:wordy must explicit write the Type (TABLE in this case), so i cant wrap this in a function have not found an solution, which works with anonymous types I.e. if I add a From t In mainctx.TABLEs Select Text=col1, id=col2 to the query, this method does not work anymore.

Stop Scrolling Scrollbar Automatically While Adding Images In Winforms
Dec 23, 2011I have a thumbnail control where I am adding Images using openfiledialog and after adding it automatically scrolls down.
So I would like to stop scrolling the scrollbar and just append the Images.
I have tried using this code:
Thumbcontrol1.VerticalScroll.Value=0
It worked fine but the scrollbar is at the bottom and it shows me the first row of Images.
And this is my second attempt by doing this way:
I have just set the autoscroll property to false and it hides the scrollbars and I'm stuck with this so how do I scroll the remaining Images?
And Is there any other method to hide scrollbars and just scroll the Images using mouse? Or any other simpler way to get rid of this?
