I cannot get my application to display in English, it always displays in French I have an application that uses 2 languages. The default language is en-GB and the second language is French For setting the text of the buttons and labels. I have set the localized property to true and changing the language to fr-FR on the form. So setting the default languages controls by choosing the default the language property, and then switching to French language to set the French controls. So I have the following files:
So if I want to switch to different languages I have changed the cultureInfo as follows:
Code:If My.Settings.Default.Language = "fr-FR" Then Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = New CultureInfo("fr-FR")Else Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = New CultureInfo("en-GB")End If
I also an address book form that is a child of the formMain. Which I have used the same method. However, the address book works as normal, but the formMain never changes to the language I want. Even though tested by explictly setting the language to en-GB in the form constuctor before the inializeComponent() it will always default to French.Not sure why the address book (child) work correctly, the parent form (formMain) will always display in French, no matter if I have set this to en-GB.I am 100% that my method is correct using what I have show you above.I was thinkng about deleting the formMain and creating a new one. But that would mean doing everything again and would take too long.
Is there some way of programtically changing the culture for a multi form application on startup so that the application will interpret date formats correctly. For example if the aplication runs on a machine with a en-US culture it would be able to take a date from a database in the MM/dd/yyyy format and convert it to a date object and when the same application runs on a en-GB machine it can take that same MM/dd/yyyy date and convert it into a date object without getting a date format exception.
How would I go about changing the font in a multi line label

I now need to have a drop down menu with different languages in it.the user selects a Language from the drop down menu the text of all the relevant objects changes from like a Button with pause on it in English changes to a button with 'Pausar' on in Spanish.
I have found some partial topics but none on this website so if any of you have advice. I have looked about on google but nothings come up with what I am after.
I have read a lot of the prior questions/answers on this topic but it only took me so far. I have a solution to which I added 2 additional programs. These 2 added programs in essence create a PDF2TIFF converter using GS. I wish to call that form and use it as a utility from my main program. After reading other answers in the forum, I added these two programs as references in the main program and imported everything available, into the main program. I have what seems to be a correct build order set up. I want to open the form in the utility project(s) from a link on my main form. I tried a few things but the only way I could write the code without errors was to instantiate the second program then call that with a button click.
I have a few forms that have a lot of really intensive updating along with a great deal of user interface (text boxes, button clicking etc) Is it possible to open a separate form as a separate UI thread from the start up form that called it to "show" or open or whatever the new method might be?
Is possible to have different values of combobox on the multi same form?
Actually I want to make a multi same form, but with one combobox to set the authority. When different persons to use this same form, I will have different selection limited on this combobox,
I don't know if is possible to make multi-form with vb.net & access.
I don't have code from now.
Actually I want to make a project, to assign a new form (one form with one table) to a new person for each time, it will be multi-form with tables, right?
How do you to make a new forms with tables?
This project is about the admin to assign the jobs to managers, so the managers will use same blank new form and to manage jobs, it is the room setting for multi-manager.
I'm adding multi-threading facilities for the first time. I have a function that is wrapped to be run in a separated thread. This function retrieves data (text) from a combobox and it works for sure without multi-threading.
When I call it as multi-threaded, I get the following error when I try to retrieve the data from the cmobobox: Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'cmb1stBL' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.
It looks like a restriction of thread-safety... I assume that the child thread cannot read from his parent, to make sure that he doesn't change his parent data. So how can I read the data from the combobox? Should I read the comoboxbox data before calling the child thread?
I have a need to build an app that will access about 10 websites and pass data to them, etc.I've read about something called multi-threading when searching Google. I've also seen people say that they use multiple browsers.Which route is better to use? I figure if you have to do some sort of multi-threading that you would access a single browser?
how to do this, but I do not get ANY of them. I just want to know how to convert a multi-form project into one EXE file. I have 2 forms, but I want to know if there's a way to have only 1 EXE file.
i have a function to export data with some loops now the problem is that when he is exporting the data the program stop responding and only respond when the job is done, and i need a option to cancel the job when it is running but the problem simple block all forms that is opened how can i creat some multi task for fix that problem?

I got a very simple question regarding resizing listview columns. I have a form with a listview anchored to it (top, bottom, left, right). The form is resizable and the user will be able to resize the listview columns manually. However, I need the listview to resize its columns automatically when the form is resized (especially when its maximized).
But, I don't want all the columns to resize, only the ones I choose. For example, the listview will have 6 columns in total (0-5). When the user resizes or maximizes the window, I need only columns 2 and 4 (or columns 3 and 5 or columns 1 and 5) to resize. Now, I have come up with two pieces of code as listed below.
Code Part A: The following code only resizes one column. When the form is maximized, only the column ID provided will resize and fill the rest of the control. It works perfectly but I need to be able to resize multiple columns (as explained above):
Public Sub lvResizeSingleCol(ByVal resizeColumn As Integer, ByVal listViewName As ListView) Dim w As Integer = 0 For column As Integer = 0 To listViewName.Columns.Count - 1 If column <> resizeColumn Then w += listViewName.Columns(column).Width [Code] .....
I thought Me.Close() works, but hey I'm a noob at this. Right now I'm using:
Form2.Show() Me.Dispose() Me.Close()
but now that I've published it, I have to pull up my task manager and do end process to actually close the app. This wasn't a problem until my office started using a public drive and everybody was using the program at once. An error popped up saying that the connection string wasn't initialized, but it worked on the computer that opened the app first. Maybe the real issue isn't properly closing the form, but that is annoying that I have to use my task manager to close my app.
1. how to save the multi same form values with vb.net & access?
2. One of the combobox - room names (computer center, first meeting room, second meeting room, etc) on this multi same form, but it is limited from the admin, actually,the admin will assign the room to the manager to set the room. (I will do this room names combobox from the other table binding.) My question for this, is possible to have multi same form, but with different combobox values for each manager?
I have made a windows forms application with a user login which queries a sql server database located on a central server. It currently has one sql server login which it connects to using a connection string in the app.config file. The user login is validated by querying a username table in sql server. I would like to make this a multi user application where after the user logs in, their credentials are stored and used by the the application to access the database with a sql server login. There will be 5-10 users.
Im having trouble passing a value from one form back to another using a listbox... The user clicks a button in the main form to bring up an instance of another form (form2.show). In that form, the user then then selects a number 1-5 and then presses done:

how do you change the Icon in the top left of a form? I tried to change it and it couldn't find any of my pictures. Do they have to be a particular size or file type?
how to redirect outputs from console to a window form text box,but the console application I'm using is always running real time, thus my .net application hangs until I close the program that is read real time.The code displays the application to a 2nd form with a textbox multi line. Until I close that my entire program hangs and the console application monitored runs.
How do I code it to:
1. Run real time without hanging the entire program.
2. the console app must run at all times. (figured how to hide/ and no window created for it)
Sub Console() Form2.Show() Dim myCon As New Process myCon.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = False
I have a forms application and I have multiple localizations for it. I've figured out how to add a button to a form, to change the localization and then read all the labels/etc and change them to the other language.What I would want to do instead now is click a button and it changes to the other language the current form but also the entire application so that any other windows opened while the application is open open in that other language.[code]This is the code I use when a button is clicked on a form to change it to Hindi the current form. However I want to when the button is clicked, change application to continue to run on that localization instead for the remainder of the time it is open.[code]

I have a problem with my program. I have a form with 2 buttons UP and DOWN. I use this buttons to change the size of the form. The first step works fine. If I press the down button I get MsgBox ("Go Down", vbYesNo,) if I press Yes the form resize from 300 to 600 and if I press no it stay 300. The problem is, if the form is already at 600 everytime I press the down button I get the MsgBox ("Go Down", vbYesNo,) if I press Yes it recycles it self the form goes to 300 and then back to 600 and if I press No it stays 600. What I want is if the form is already 600 and I press the down button it skips the MsgBox ("Go Down", vbYesNo,) and the form stay at 600.
