View 2 RepliesUsing VB Windows Form Application In Visual Studio,All of my text appears jagged and pixelated.I calibrated my PC clear type settings (all fonts are smooth).However, in the Form Designer of VS, the text on buttons, labels, etc are not.I've tried the working code below (please try the code)
Code:

I have a datagridview which is populated with information from a database. I would like it so that when I click on one of the items in the table, the information appears in the text box, or other suitable tool.
The VB output is an EPG (electronic program guide), that has a list of programs and the channels/time etc. So when you click on the program such as 'The News,' the data from the database such as 'Description' will appear in the textbox.
I have a tab control application, each tab loads a particular user control and each of those user controls will then add other user controls that are used amongst other the user controls. For example, I have an "ucQuotes" page and an "ucInventory" page, when the specific tab is selected, the "uc****" user control is loaded on that page, and in the case of "ucQuotes" and "ucInventory" they both use a control called "ucPartNumber"; a user control consisting of a combobox, textbox, and button. I have no issues reusing the shared user controls, in this case. My problem arises with my "ucQuickPrice" control, as it is always present at the bottom of the tab control form (separate from the tabcontrol, but on the same form), and it too uses ucPartnumber.
Here's my issue, as I type into the ucPartnumber combobox, the text I type does not appear in the combobox, it appears in the textbox of the ucPartnumber control that is being used on the tabcontrol page. There are no shared instances of ucPartNumber, nor do I have this issue between typing on one tab page and the text showing on the user control of another tab page.I tried just creating the ucPartNumber controls on the ucQuickPrice control, not adding a new instance of ucPartnumber on the .Load event, and the issue persists.
The combobox(s) in question are bound programmatically with about 40,000 items, ".datasource = dataset.tablename" not to a bindingsource. Autocomplete is set to none, I added code to utilize tool tips and the basic combobox filtering functionality. Is this a bug, or is there something I'm neglecting? I'm about 95% complete with this application, and this just happened today. I made the decision, to just reuse the ucPartNumber control on the ucQuickPrice control (originallly it's size and orientation would not fit, but I added some coding to detect what parent is adding ucPartNumber and to change its appearance accordingly). Before, I made this change, I did not have this problem. And, in trying to go back to how I had things set up before the change, the problem will not go away. if the whole control within a control verbage I used is a bit confusing, let me know and I'll try to better explain what is happening. At this point, I'm going to close and reopen vbexpress, as when I started this ordeal, vb started acting weird and wanted me to save all my work, it usually does this before locking up.
I am passing the data of an element inside an xml file into a sql server table with field varchar(max). This datatype is permanent and due to business rule is not allowed to be changed.[code]Notice, there are spaces and carriage returns.When pulling these data out of the xml file, in the immediate window, I can see " attached to the text where there should be a return.The sql does not take care of these returns, so that when I show these values on the UI, I do not see the carriage returns.How do I see the text on the UI as it exacly appears in the xml file ?

View 4 RepliesI'm inserting data into excel sheets and after i fill each sheet I want to sum a column so select the data and add a formula to a cell. However when the sheet is opened the cell contains the formula as text instead of the sumation value. I tired several ways but here are a few different meathods that both end up with the same undesired result.
Code:
'Meathod 1
oSheet.Range("H2:H" & (dtEntries.Rows.Count + 2).ToString).Select()
oSheet.Range("H" & (dtEntries.Rows.Count + 2).ToString).FormulaR1C1= "=SUM(R[-" & (dtEntries.Rows.Count).ToString & "]C:R[-1]C)"

I've written a Windows application which reads the title of a Window (which is in Greek)
and adds it in an Array List. However, when I MessageBox.Show(thatString) it appears as '?????'.
How do you call the text that appears when holding cursor on a control as an explanation and how to implement it??? It has to be easy but I don't know how to do it For example Microsoft application functions all have it?
View 3 RepliesI have a form in my project with a textbox that contains a unique computer ID number for the user. I want the user to click a button, which will open my website, and then populate the value from my software into a corresponding computerID form on my website.
The form on my website is just a paypal form that I built using paypal's website builder. It has a buy it now button and a textfield for computer ID. I need to know the computerID so that I can send the user the correct activation code.
Is there any way for me to accomplish this? All I have so far is just opening my site:
Private Sub btnpurchase_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnpurchase.Click
Process.Start("mywebsite")
End Sub
