Call To Application.Run(New MyForm()) Not Working When Called Outside Sub Main?
May 2, 2012
I am using Compact Framework 3.5 on a Symbol MC50.In my Sub Main it first checks to see if a database exists. If it does, it shows a login screen using the following code:
Dim login As frmLogin = New frmLogin()
If login.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
Application.Run(New frmMain())
End If
This all works correctly and, when I close frmMain, it exits the application as expected.However, if the database check in Sub Main fails, I call the ShowDialog() method of another form that is used to create and fill the database from a live server. Here is the code for calling this form:
If Not File.Exists(SETTINGS_LOCALDB) Then
databaseExists = False
MessageBox.Show("Local DB does not exist. The database must be created before using the application.")[code].....
All of this code is being hit and frmMain does indeed load. However, when I click the close button in the top right nothing happens, no event occurs. Its as though the Windows events are not occurring.
I have a VB .NET 2010 application. I added a C# project to my solution. I tried to call the form called 'main'. However, I could not figure out a way to do that. What is the best way to do that? I Goggled, and did not find anything. Actually I noticed that my Developer converted everything to VB .NET.
I'm trying to use the Shell to have my application call an external application but its not working...I don't understand why. I get the following error: 'System.windows.shell' is a namespace and cannot be used as an expression!
Heres my code....any ideas what I'm doing wrong. Its got to be a simple...stupid error.
Private Sub mnuUpgrade_Click(ByVal Ctrl As Microsoft.Expression.Web.Interop.Legacy.CommandBarButton, ByRef CancelDefault As Boolean) Handles mnuUpgrade.Click
I am using a sub procedure that calls other subs. I was wondering if there was a way of ending the main sub from one of the called subs.I have been using Exit Sub but this only exits the sub which is currently in.
I am trying to convert a DLL function call which has the Callback function routine called within the DLL function call.The DLL function call signature is like this:
I have a piece of JQuery AJAX that calls a VB.NET code-behind (class) that returns string data. It grabs some latest stats on a particular server. Now the code works, but the first time I press the refresh button data is returned and the alert "Refreshed" is shown on screen.
But if I press it again, the alert box "Refreshed" is shown twice, I click again three times! and on and on, until the time-out kicks in.It seems to be coming from the AJAX call and no where else. I'm at a loss at what could be calling this, I've tried deleting the data returned after success but no joy.
the message pumb of vb6 forms is taken by the hosted application (.NET) , we are currently in a process of calling our system from .NET but after using ShowWindow Lib "user32 API i stuck into same problem of Tabbing not work in correct way as it had been set in design time , ChaosTheEternal solution dosnt show form as modeless which its reuired to me?
I have not used a module in a long time. I am get an error when i try to call my sub openDatabaseConnection that is in a module called dataaccess. i amtring to call this method in my ui form code but i get the error as so: The type initializer for 'bsoDetailsDB.dataAccess' threw an exception.
My code:
Public Class Form1 Private Sub btnOpen_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnOpen.Click OpenDatabaseConnction()
We know that the DLL function can be called from our mainprogram and return value. I would like to know, when we run DLL function, can we call a sub in our mainprogram (from DLL function) and return a value to DLL fucntion.
We are attempting to run a batch file that will result in a submission to a help desk ticket system. When we run the batch file from command line on our W2003 platform, it works successfully. When we run the same file, called from our vb program, using shell or process info, it does not. With shell, we can see the batch file being called, but it is not resulting in update to the help desk ticket system. The vendor of the system believes it is a security issue. We are signed on as Administrator while running this. We set security permissions of cmd.exe to include Batch, per KB867466. What else should we be doing or looking at?
[Edit] See this post as to why I'm declaring form elements globally. I chose to rewire my code to get rid of the global definitions. [End Edit] I'm creating a from dynamically at runtime. the form, all buttons, and the combobox are all declared globally to the parent form. dim myForm as new form
As of the moment I have 24 buttons that are keys to a piano.24 of the button codes have a call method that calls the note to be played.24 of the private subs that are called have an .wav audio playback command within them. I was hoping I could move the .wav private subs into a separate class, and just call them from my main form, therefore cleaning up the lines of code I have at the moment. [code]That example only counts for one Button "The Key of C", and the audio file that is called with it. Multiply that by 24 and you get a big mess of repetitive junk.Can I move the audio subs into a class and call them from my main form?
Now I am calling mainform from WindowsStartForm-> SetupStartForm.vb file. This is the code

I have the problem is that in the messagebox it shows the incremented value. But no updations are there in the textbox of mainform. What is the reason for that.
I have a function in a module that returns a datatable.I need to call that function asynchronously and get the results in the Main thread (Main Form) in vb.net.
I was wondering if there was a way to trim the working set when the main form loads in vb. I know in C# you can use SetProcessWorkingSetSize(GetCurrentProcess, -1, -1) API call But I am not quite sure how to implement this in vb. Basically I got an application that is showing 11,000K+ mem usage in the task manager when in actuality it is really only utilizing about 1,000K if that and I want to try and trim the working set to show the actual usage in the task manager rather than what the framework is reserving.
Currently I declare my main class on frmMain. as public MyClass as new clsMyClass Thus anywhere in the application I would address it as: frmMain.MyClass.Function(MyParam) This does not look as neat as I would like it. Where can I load this Class so that I can address it as: MyClass.Function(MyParam) from anywhere inside the application.
I use SetParent to make an external application a "child" of my Main .Net application. This works fine.What I need to know is why can't I use Me.MDIChildren(0)I thought that using SetParent would increase the number of children by 1, thus allowing me to reference it with the above code, but it shows there are no children in the array.I have been trying, without luck, for 2 days to try to maximize an external app being displayed in my app. I can get it to display, but I would love it if it could Dock to the same size as its container (a panel)
How can I call a function from inside another function and suspend the calling function until the called function is finished? I hope I can get some replies because I don't know how to ask the question and make sense:).
Anyway what I am trying to do in steps:
1. The user clicks button1 which triggers the click event. 2. From the click event I call a function 3. I then pop-up a form, that has instructions for the user to read. 4. After the user has read the form he will click the "Done" button and return to the calling function.
The problem is the the calling function continues to execute. I want to stop execution of the calling function until the users clicks the "Done" button on the instruction pop=up. I know I can use a msgbox but the instructions can be lengthly and does not look good in a msgbox.
I have tried the Call method with return in the "Done" button click but I can make that work. I also tried a goto statement but I can get that to work either. In the call statement I said call frmInstruction.show() and it got there but as I said the calling function continued to execute.
I am using SendInput to send some keyboard commands to a dialog box. It is already the active foreground window when I call SendInput. I first send "Return" and then a bunch of other stuff. The dialog box opens with a button selected by default, and when manually selecting Enter, the button is clicked on the dialog progresses to the next screen, but my SendInput call doesn't advance the dialog.
I have a smart client application deployed as a click once application called "PDFSplitter". The link to install this PDFSplitter is on our company intranet and when you click the link you get a "The publisher could not be verified. Are you sure you want to run this software?" message. Is there any way to make this message go away?
I have a sub procedure called ServiceCharge in the CheckingAccount Class now I am trying to call it from the CheckingAccountForm Class but its not cooperating Here is my code I put a bunch of and comments where I want to call the Sub Procedure
The following JSON call always hits the AJAX error handler, and I can't figure out why:[code]All I get is Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error)url...When I set a breakpoint in the controller, I can see that it's being reached, so I'm not sure where the request is falling down. Here's the action in the DetailController:[code]
1. Write a Visual Basic Console Application.Inside the main procedure call a function procedure to input and return a value for a double variable called x, the width of a right triangle.Inside the main procedure call the same function procedure a second time to get a value for a double variable called y, the height of a right triangle.
2. From the main procedure call a function procedure which calculates and returns a value for the hypotenuse equal to the square root of (x squared + y squared).You will have to pass the values of x and y to this function procedure.The procedure should calculate and return a double type value.The value that is returned by this function procedure should be equal to the square root of (x squared + y squared).
3. Also from the main procedure call a sub procedure to display the values of x, y, and the hypotenuse.
I have a button on a form that is supposed to run an executable (compiled Intel Fortran v11) on the click event. Here is the code:
Private Sub RunButton_Click() Handles RunButton.Click Try System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C: estDir estCode.exe")
[Code]....
I'm certain the path is correct and I have verified that running the testCode.exe from the cmd window works as it should (testCode.out file is updated). When I try to run the process via the RunButton it appears to work...no errors are reported or caught. However, the expected output file is not updated indicating testCode.exe did not execute. All of the online support I have researched indicates this should work.
i want an application (i do not care if it is a web app or a desktop app) that i will insert a mp3 file and a .txt list of phone and it will automatically call each phone one by one and will play the recorded message that will exist in the .mp3 file.i also want to be able to see how many phones that the application called answered the phone and how many did not.Topic closed for blatantly violating the rules. If you "want an application", post a request in the "Post a Job" forum. [rules][/rules]
I really need help with this. I am trying to call a fortran DLL from VB.NET program. The program works fine untill it reaches the end of the DLL program where, instead of transferring the control back to the calling program the message " PinvokeStackImbalance error" is displayed and program halts. If I turn off pInvokeStackImbalance from the Debug menu, then the program will compile without problem. However, the .EXE program crash after the DLL call. Does anybody where the problem is. following the VB.Net program that calls the fortran DLL:
