not quite sure why this is happening but I am just debugging right now and the buttons I am using are opening the wrong forms, I have made sure of the form names, button names etc and it looks all good but specifically the btnPrintReport is opening up the form enterAuditForm while btnProcessAudit is opening printAuditForm instead of their correct ones.
Here's my code, it is rather simple. The reason why I am using a separate sub as my btnPrintReport is because I am using that also on the baseForm's OnLoad Event, which again is also opening the wrong form.
Firstly though, I'll have to mention that I'm a relative newcomer to vb.net and don't really know that much about advanced functions.I have my main form which dynamically generates 15 buttons.
Each of these buttons will need to open another form, depending on which form has been assigned to that button in a config file (the config file isn't yet done, as I want to get it working simply by hardcoding the name of the forms for the time being)
The way I have it in my head is that I would assign the form name that needs to be open to the name of the button, if that makes sense....However, I have absolutely no clue how to do it, I've tried a couple of things but to no avail.
Here's my code, and I have no problem changing any part of it if it will help things along, this is just the only way I know how to create dynamic buttons.[CODE...]
i have a query of opening a new Application(eg. UgNx,Ansys)file with in a Panel (Which is already dropped on a Window Form).
For Example :-There in one Window Form and i have fixed a Panel there now with in the panel i want to open a new Application like other softwares UG NX or Ansys.
I have a form which gets populated by 15 buttons dynamically at runtime (these need to be dynamic as there will be a user config file at some point)What I need these buttons to do is to open a specific form when clicked. Which form that opens will be dealt with in the config file.
Public Class frm_MainScreen Private Sub frm_MainScreen_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim count As Integer Dim ImageDir As String
It is my goal to write a program to run a retail store. I am an intermediate Access developer, so I have a good grasp of the basics.However, I find that developing in VB 2010 is quite different.I will have forms for:
Company Information Employee Information Supplier Information Customer Information Invoices & Purchase Orders
All I really need to know at this point is the code to open and close each form.
I am designing a simple user interface using winforms. In the designer I have a panel on the form and would like to add a datagridview control into the panel at runtime and set the dock property of the datagridview to 'Fill' so that it fills the panel.
I am struggling to do this and following code is not working out for me:
Dim MyDataGridview as New DataGridView() MyDataGridView.Dock = DockStyle.Fill Me.MyPanel.Controls.Add(MyDataGridview)
I don't get an error but the datagridview isn't visible. It gets added 'behind' the panel and so I tried using .SendToBack() and .BringToFront() methods thinking that the panel was hiding the datagridview but this doesn't seem to work either. At any rate, it seems like the datagridview is being added to the form but just not docked within the panel
I have a piece of software with two tabs, inside each tab there are buttons (the user can add the buttons when they want). when tab1 is full tab2 should start to fill. I currently know how many buttons fit on the screen so I just say something like if buttons > 150 then start to populate tab 2 The problem i have now though is if the resolution is changed then a different amount of buttons can be displayed. so if I put my screen to 1280x720 some buttons are left of. I was thinking of detecting the resolution and then using different cases for different resolutions but this seems very inefficient im wondering if there is a different way?
When a user is editing a given piece of data, they're allowed to add messages/comments. These are stored as child records in a SQL database. Clicking on the Add Message button brings up a panel (pnlMessage) courtesy of the AJAX ModalPopup Extender. This takes some input and, when the "Send Message" button in the panel is clicked (I learned the hard way to NOT make that the 'OkButton' property), the message is stored in the database and an email is sent to the intended recipients. No problem there.
However, I need to be able to allow the user to add new email addresses (so long as they are registered in our database). I have another ModalPopup / panel combo (pnlSearch) that's tied to a button on the previous panel (pnlMessage).
The user is supposed to be able to add an email or click on a search button to populate a list to choose from.
The pop-up panel (pnlSearch) comes up just fine, but clicking the "Lookup" button (which instigates the search and returns a collection of records that the user is supposed to pick from) closes the panel.
Previously, I ran into the problem of having the Button.Click event never firing when I put the Button into the "OkControlID" property (the CancelControlID works fine since I don't want to do anything). Removing the "OkControlID=Button" line allowed it to work perfectly with the Button.Click event firing as expected.
So now I have the Search panel with a button for "OK" and a button for "Search" - but the panel should stay up and visible after the Search.Click does it's thing. Am I missing some property that basically says "don't close the panel when this button is clicked"? Of course, if I bring up the panel again in the same session, the results from the previous effort are there (the search results).
I have a TopBar, A LeftBar, A VScrollBar, A HScrollBar and a Panel inside a SplitContainer Panel.The issue I'm having is that when my SplitContainer Panel is small enough to enable one of the ScrollBars, I will slide the ScrollBar and then when I resize the Split Panel, my Panel1 is staying where I scrolled it too.I'm having troubles thinking of the correct code to fix this.
So i had a some objects on my project like a few textboxs and buttons, which all had code tied to. For example text1 button1. I delete the two objects (not code) from the project and then paste a text1 and button1 (same exact names) back into the form. now when you click button1 or text1 you get
"Private Sub Button7_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button7.Click"
rather than the code all ready in the project for button7. The reason im doing this weird situation was because i goofed some of the object settings and was copy and pasting the old objects from a backup version.
I'm just trying to open a ColorDialog so that the user can select a color. But if I just use the following simple code with Button, ComboBox or anything, the application will completely freezes itself.
Dim cd As New ColorDialog() If cd.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then PictureBox1.BackColor = cd.Color
I am at the form/application stage, and now working on my final project. I know how to open an application from the form, but I want to open the app within the form. I already have my web browser on one form, and button command that gets me there. I also want to run a special program that I have already created in the command window on the form that I have. I have the form ready, the command that I click to open the cmd.exe but, now it I cannot get it to run in the form, ie. a panel. At least that is where I think it should run.
my panel is called pnlcommandwindow, and I have it visible:false until I click the button. It opens with cmd.exe and command.com. But, I want the same window that is opened when I run a program in VB command window.
In the command button or the panel or another box?
I have an application that I want to review existing word documents. What I mean by review is that they can look at them and print them and that is about it. I am a bit stuck on how to complete this task though. I tried using a web browser and that allows changes and with a very minor bit of work the document can be modified and saved. I also tried using process.start and that just starts up the word application as does SetParent.
Is it possible to just take snapshots of the document and view those? Or to open the document as a readonly document?
I want my program to once a certain button is pushed it opens up a new picturebox on another application. I've already made the new application to be opened, but I have no idea how to link the two different applications like this.
i have a query of opening a new application or you can say a new Process in a Specific dimension means to say i have dropped a Panel in a WndowForm and i want to open that particular new process in that panel only.
I am making a program that NEEDS to be password protected, so i made a textbox with a code so that when the user enters the right password it lets you in. But if the user/person enters a wrong password 2X it will kick you out. So is there a way to keep the
i created a panel with few buttons, all buttons have the same size, most buttons hold images, 2 of them hold string (1 or 2 digit) the string buttons will not align with the rest of them, and i have no idea why ?
I have a program that adds controls on the fly to an auto-scroll panel. When the panel is scrolled (viewing the bottom of the panel for example) and a control is added, it looks like it is added assuming the top left corner of the panel is still at 0,0 when in fact it may be 0,500. To see what I am talking about, create an empty "Windows Forms Application" project and insert the below code into it.
Friend WithEvents Panel1 As System.Windows.Forms.Panel Friend WithEvents btnAdd As System.Windows.Forms.Button Dim ButtonCount As Integer
I have a panel in my form and 5 buttons. All the buttons are docked to the top. Also in the panel I have a treeview ctl that is set to fill. What I am trying to accomplish is when you push one of the buttons the remainder move to the bottom and the treeview ctl fills between the buttons.
How do I code different buttons to display different information on the same panel removing the previous information before displaying the new information?
I wanna set up a panel, that will, when opend up will sit on the side of the screen. It will consist of around 8 or so large buttons each with a different name on them. When the buttons are clicked on they will send the keys Ctrl+shift+F9 for example. Each different button will have a different variation of keys that it will automaticly send. The idea behind this is that I will have another program running that will be se up to perform actions when certain keys are pressed (Autohotkey if your familiar).
Now I'll be honest, I dont have a clue with visual basic, or any code other than html, hence why I'm posting here hoping I can get some help. Can anyone provide me with some information on how to set up buttons or how to do this entire task?
I have a panel that has 8 buttons located on it each named But1,But2,ect. What I am trying to figure out how to do is resize all of the buttons in width when the panel is resized in width. [Code] Is there something simpler to do this as I will eventually have 3 panels with 8 buttons on each one that would need to be resized at the same time. In VB this was controlled by an index and a for next loop, but I see no way to create a control array for all the buttons when they are on separate panels.
i have a panel docked at the top of my form with a button and a textbox. Also have a webbrowser docked below the panel filling the rest of the form.when i run the form and maximize it, the panel and webbrowser resizes correctly as they are docked but the button and textbox stays where it is, how would i make the button and textbox always stay center screen so if i maximize it will be center.
I have a panel that I am writting text into troughout the applications use. I would like to be able to make some of the words in the panel bold and others non-bold.
I'm developing a 3d Viewer in vb.net and xna.I have now a windows form and an xna render window, but I would like to render it inside a panel in the windows form.I have searched for info, but it's so hard to adapt it into my application.
I have a form called Form1. wherein Form1 has a split panel container. on the right side of Form1 is a web browser window. the right side are the buttons. one button there is calling another form. but there's a problem on this Form called Form2. I have google earth EXE and it's component files together with the same folder of the project. The Form2 will call the googleearth.exe file now... I know the program syntax
How do I get the possition of the mouse inside a panel? I know how to get the positon in a windows form but this doesn't work in objects (pictureboxes , labels, panels...)
i have created a panel wherein i am to insert the labels and data needed for printing. i have found a code to print labels and textboxes, however, datagridview is not included in the code.
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click PrintDocument1.Print() End Sub
