View 4 RepliesI am creating an application and am very new to VB. I have 4 buttons on my form which is like my applications main menu. I would like that each of the buttons behaves in the following way when there is a mouse rollover: The Button back color is changed from the default to Red The Button text is changed to Blue, Bold, and increases in font size I would also like all the buttons to go back to their initial state when the mouse leaves.
Another thing, instead of me writing code for each of the buttons event handlers (Mouse Hovers, and Mouse Leaves) is there a way I can write this code once, maybe as a function and then always call it for any button that I create from here on so that any new buttons take on this behaviour.
I have created a new Button Template in Blend2 to use the Style in Blend for Others Buttons is no problem, for this i just assign the Button Style with my own Style, and it works perfect. But I would like to use or better say assign the button style via VB Code. For example, I have new Button, and want to assign it with my Button Style called "MyStyle" , I have tried it with using URI and Source, but was not successful.

I have a vb.net windows forms project with a tabcontrol. Anyone know how to change the style of the tabpage title or "button" when you hover over it with the pointer ?
I guess you can change the colours with: TabControl1.SelectedTab.BackColor = Color.Black
But not sure how to hook up the mouseover to the hovered over tab title/button.
For some reason I thought you could change the look of a button. such as have it angled to the right or left of something like that.

Ok i am making a game in visual basic where its 1998 and you have windows 95 and you find time travel software and travel to different time periods with different operating systems...so far i have coded windows 95 and partly windows 98 into the game and have a good time travel sequence... (this will be a completely free game in the future)
Theres just one major problem i have. Whatever operating system you are using for your current computer (windows 7 in my case) the buttons and tabs and everything else (apart from the windows border... or whatever you all it which i made myself) everything has the modern buttons on it.Hes an in game screen shot :As you can see it looks totally horrible... even the start menu has the windows 7 blue glow effect...I recently found another application (universe Sandbox) and it has the classic buttons even though i am using windows 7.how can i actually make my buttons classic? (without making picture boxes of each button)
how i can change the native scrollbar style in my application to my custom style. I can adopt a custom scrollbar to attain this purpose but this will not serve my purpose because i want this attribute in entire application. Like it the text in textbox gets longer than its bounds than the scrollbar appers are my custom bar not the formal ones

I am trying to make a style that only gets applied if the parent element of the element that the style refers to, has another specific style. Kind of like in CSS where you can do ".class1 .class2" to specify that the "class2" theme only applies if it is within an element with the class "class1". I do not wish to use any form of external DLLs or libraries for this task. I want to know if it's possible to implement on my own.
I've tried using MultiTriggers with no luck. I have a style that applies to all TextBlocks. I want the textblock to do the following: If the font-size of the textblock is 11 and the parent element's style is "PinnedSuggestion", set the foreground color to "#FF505050". If the font-size of the textblock is 11 and the parent element's style is "Suggestion", set the foreground color to "#FFCCCCCC". The conditions that I have tried to write to make this work, are as follows (the font-size condition is true, but the other one is not). The conditions are inside a style that applies to all textblocks in general.

View 6 RepliesI was wondering if it is even possible to interact with other websites using my own.Here is the scenario: Lets say I have a Lockerz account, which is a place where you do daily tasks to earn points. Once a month you can redeem those points to get prizes such as an ipod, macbook, or other items. I know that sounds rediculous, but stay with me.
For someone to gain membership to this website they must be invited by a member. So I get your email address then log in to my account, then send you an invite from there.What I want to do is create a website where a user enters their email into a textbox and presses a submit button. From there the program, behind the scenes, sends my login information, and the users email address to lockerz and sends the invite. All without ever leaving my site.I have worked with ASP.NET with VB codebehind for a while now, so I understand the basics of that. I am just wondering if what i want to do is even possible.

View 3 RepliesI am using VB within the Visual Studio 2010 platform.I have created a simple Database with Access.I have connected my database to my VB 2010 project using the Visual Basic BindingNavigator object.I now need to navigate my Database with code from within VB 2010.
1) More specifically I need VB routines that allow me to:
·
GoTo first record
·
GoTo a specific record
·
MoveDown one record at the time and sense the EOF.
2)I need to add new records at the end of my database as data become available through a change in four text boxes.
3)I need any other VB 2010 statement or routine that might apply to Database navigation and communication from within VB 2010.
My Database consists of four columns: Date, Time, Bid (Double Integer), and Ask (Double Integer), and was created with Access.Is Access the best solution for creating a Database today?
I would like to prompt the user, in the middle of a VB program, either with MsgBox or any other dialog, to input data in a worksheet of the Workbook that contains the code and then, on some event, read the data and continue execution. I was not successful with MsgBox (and other forms) since it is modal. The user cannot get focus on the worksheet, input data and then continue execution by clicking a command button.

Here's the gist:

I have set up a scrollbar to have a value between 0 and 264 (i.e. 0-255 when taking the width of the slider into account). I also have a text box that is set up to display the current value of the scrollbar as an interger. However I am currently unable to enter a value in the text box which also moves the scrollbar to its equivilent position. The closest I've been is when I was able to change the value but kept ending up with an error when a number above 255 was entered or when there wasn't a number in the text box.[code]What I am after is to be able to enter a number between 0 and 255 (and only a number between 0 and 255)in the text box and it change the position of the scrollbar accordingly and to omitigate the errors which occur when there is nothing in the text box by accepting an empty box as 0.
View 2 RepliesOn my program the user clicks a button which then runs the main code for my program. The problem is once the code is executed I can no longer move or interact with any form boxes, reliably at least . Sometimes there will be a period of delay where I can move it for an instance. Is there anyway I can make it so that my form is able to be moved while the program is running?
View 3 RepliesI think I started out with a misunderstanding of what happens with addnew() and canceledit().
I have a strongly typed datasource in memory.
I call bindingsource.AddNew()
Later I find that the record the user was trying to add already exists, so
bindingsource.CancelEdit()
I have not set any properties other than datasource on the bindingsource.
My assumption was that the CancelEdit() would rollback the blank row added by the AddNew(), but I'm getting some odd errors which lead me to believe this is not true.
Could someone verify that CancelEdit() leaves the new row?

I have a preloader app that runs before the Main application and performs an Update check.. (and then installs the latest update) it's come in very handy at the current client I'm at as there are going to be several hundred installations of the App on site.. Also it's a Live Development.. (One app that handles the Full Plant Monitoring and maintenance) .. But that's not the problem..
The Preloader simply checks on the server if there's a new Update, Copies it down and then runs the Main app.Now there are several Configurable routes through the app: Quick, Skip, Auto, For now the Default is Ask.. and in this mode, if there is an update, the Preloader will ask if you want to install it, if not it will wait 10 seconds and start the Main app.
My problem is If there is no user interaction with the Preloader, windows thinks that it terminated incorrectly, and throws up one of those "This program has stopped working" (similar to image below).
If the user however simply clicks the Done that clears the timer, or clicks the Yes/No for the update, no problems.

So the problem .. If there is NO user interaction, Windows (XP Sp2 mostly) thinks it crashed.What can i include to let windows know that the application does not require User Interaction.
I would like to keep part of an Excel workbook open to the user (including some VBA code) while protecting other code. What I hope to accomplish is to rewrite some of my code from Excel VBA in VB.Net and compile it into a DLL which I can then call from Excel VBA. I want end users to be able to modify most of the code in the module, but some of the process should never be touched. Say I have an array in VBA
ArrONE(1 to n, 1 to n)
I would like to pass this through into a DLL and return a new array back to VBA:
ArrTWO(1 to n, 1 to n)
1) What are the best resources for VB.Net?
2) What are some main differences between VBA and VB.Net code
3) I have read that VB.Net doesn�t handle Variant data types, which (as far as I know) is a requirement to perform matrix multiplication in Excel VBA. Any detail on this issue would be of use.
4) VB.Net test environment? I often use msgboxes or simple subs printing to a spreadsheet to test my code in Excel VBA as I go to make sure everything I code is working properly before advancing. What would be .NET equivalents.
5) How to compile VB.Net into a DLL
6) How to call a DLL from Excel VBA
7) What effect will this have on the speed of my procedure?
What I'd like to do is when a user clicks a button in my windows form application, it launches IE etc and opens webpage, sends the username/password stored on the pc and logins into the main page.Some background-the password will be stored in a txt file on the pc in encrypted form-the webpage am login into is a aspx company intranet page-security is really not a major issue as everything is internal-the main page of the intranet page is just two textboxes asking for username/password before going any further. There is a button to login on the webpageIs what am trying to do possible as I really do not have understanding of how the login page works underneath or for that matter much about HTTP post requests etc
View 7 RepliesI was wondering if you could offer a hand on something I'm finding a bit tricky.I am looking at basic shell integration. That is, when a user right clicks a file they can select an option that I have specified. Clicking this will allow them to do various functionality. The way the shell is working for me is that I have a registry entry which runs a specific file. That's all well and good but I need to communicate with a process that is already running on the local machine. (To prevent the users from having to enter login details multiple times).
So I need a way to launch an application, which can call a function in a process that is already running, and pass through the file path. The other application takes the filepath and does whatever it needs with it.
I have both separate sides of the application working (it can get the file path fine, and the other application knows what to do with a file path). The problem I am having is actually linking the two together.
I have a winform project which lists all the files in a specified folder. It allows the user to select a new destination for each file, and when the user has chosen the destinations for all files that he would like to be moved, it moves the files, one by one.My next step is, I need to display a confirm form when the files are being moved, and add each file's name and destination to the confirm form as it is being moved.How can I add more text to the confirm form's controls after I already loaded it (using confirm.showdialog() from my other form, without any user interaction? I imagine that I need to do it from the original form, because it needs to display each one when it starts to move that file?
