View 3 RepliesI've been whining for several months about the way Windows 7 prevents application exceptions from actually occurring, and arbitrarily assigns "compatibility settings" without actually detailing what those settings are, even during Visual Studio Debugging operations. Am I just completely ignorant to some setting I can toggle to turn all that garbage off and make Win7 act like an operating system that wasn't designed for a 2 year old? It never hurts to try. In a worst case scenario,

In my project i have 4 Forms including main form. Form2 is open through main form then Form2 remain active until user close Form2.Mean to say Form2 not allow any other form active until user closer form2.
View 3 RepliesOn my program I am trying to make a form that would activate the program.I have the activation codes but when the user enters the activation code in a text box, is it possible that it would erase that activation code or wont accept that activation code again after being used once. Then if the program accepts the activation code can it open the main form (form1) and if the user closes the program and the re-opens the program, is it possible that the activation form doesn't open again and instead, going to the main form. I have this password code:
Private Sub textbox4_KeyDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles MaskedTextBox1.KeyDown
Static WrongCount As Integer = 0[code].....
Then can there be slashes every 4 characters in the text box?

View 1 RepliesWithin the program, there is a button that opens a file inside of a second form ( DocViewFrm ) and it works fine the first time around. Within this new window, there is a button that uses Me.Close() to close the window and return to the main window. Upon the attempt to open this second form a second time, the program crashes on the Me.DocViewFrm.Show() line. The error message reads:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.ObjectDisposedException' occurred in System.Windows.Forms.dll
Additional information: Cannot access a disposed object.

Right now I can add background music in my program by using this code
My.Computer.Audio.Play(My.Resources.Music_3, AudioPlayMode.Background)
I can also turn it off and change the music by using this code
My.Computer.Audio.Stop()
My.Computer.Audio.Play(My.Resources.Another_Music, AudioPlayMode.BackgroundLoop)
Is it possible to pause the music then if I resume the music it will just continue the flow? I mean if I pause the background music in 33 seconds and the music has 50 seconds and I resume it will just continue playing in 33,34,35 etc.. seconds?
I was wondering if their was a way to for me to turn off events and then turn them back on in my program or just queue them up until i am ready for them to be excuted. Kinda like how a OS turns on and off interupts. Is this one of those general programming no-nos?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make my application become the active window if it currently isn't as soon as the mouse enters the main form of the application (so there is no need to click the title bar of form itself to make the window the currently active one if it's not).
It only sorta/kinda work .... I have to enter the form with the mouse 3-4-5-6-maybe 7 times ... then the window finally becomes the active one.
I know the MouseEnter event is firing each time the mouse enters the app, but the main window isn't becoming active most of the time.
Private Sub frmMain_MouseEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.MouseEnter
rtbStatus.AppendText("Just got a frmMain.MouseEnter event" & vbCrLf)

I am having three forms
1. Main page
2. Input page
3. Output page
I want load event to be activated whenever coming from Main page to Inputpage and activate event when coming from output page to input page.But what i am getting is that only for the first time load is activated and for all other only activate is called.
I have a program where the main form is called (shown/activated) via a keystroke combination. When the form pops-up, I've set the focus to a textbox to begin typing right away.
When the keystroke event occurs, I have:Me.Activate()And in the Form_Activated event:
Textbox1.Focus() Simple right? It works the way I want it to, even after I've compiled and run the EXE, but ONLY if Visual Studio 2008 is running. Once I close my project in VS, with the program still running outside VS, the form is shown, but input focus is not set to the textbox.
Input focus is however still set to whatever it was previously, like a word document for example. My form will be topmost, but if I attempt to input text, it would still be entered into the word doc. why having my projects' source open in VS has anything to do with running the compiled EXE of said program?
I've even tried API calls to SetForegroundWindow and ShowWindow with the same result.
I have this code to add ToolStripMenuItems when my form loads.
Dim i As Integer = 0
Dim stanicastring As String
While i < ListBox1.Items.Count
