View 6 RepliesI'm using VS 2005 and I've created an Excel spreadsheet and written a lot of data. I've also modified some of the cell interior colors via commands like this:
objWorksheet.Cells._Default(Bline + 2 + i, 1).Interior.Color = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.ToOle(System.Drawing.Color.White)
But what I am finding is that the borders are getting wiped out.

I'm searching for a way to change the font size of selected text in a RichTextBox (rtf) having different font families (e.g. Arial and MS SansSerif) and font styles (underline, bold...) using the FontDialog, but without changing the families and styles. The following code resets all the font attributes, which is not what I want:

I'm quite new at this but I'm trying to change the look of a tab control other than the options provided in the control's properties. In short I want to create a large tab that will fit a picture but I don't know how to change the size of the tab. I also want to make the control look somewhat different than what the control provided with VS.NET looks like.
What I need to know is how to create a custom control that operates the same as tabcontrol but looks different than the traditional control provided with VS. I tried looking up how to create a custom control but all I could find was how to create one programatically and I don't know how it would apply to a tab control. Maybe the only way to do it is programmatically but I would rather play with the control in the designer than having it appear only at runtime.
In form frmAddPlayers I declare and create an array of pictureboxes in the Load event using the code:
Dim
pbxPlayerJoined(7) As
PictureBox
[code]....
In the watch window the value of the pictureboxes is System.Windows.Forms.PictureBox. Later in the load event I start a background worker in form sfrmUSBDevice using the code:
sfrmUSBDevice.sReadWriteThread.RunWorkerAsync()
The background worker waits for user input and then calls a subroutine from form frmAddPlayers. The subroutine changes the image in the picturebox to indicate that the user input has taken place. However when the debugger returns from sfrmUSBDevice to frmAddPlayers the watch window shows that all of the pictureboxes have a value of nothing. Then when I try to change the image of the picturebox I get an "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" exception. It seems like when the debugger goes to the sfrmUSBDevice form and comes back to frmAddPlayers the objects on frmAddPlayers have lost their information.
I create an app, with it when I click a button it opens a new form on a second monitor.
This works perfectly, but every first time the app start and I open the second form, on my primary screen (right side) I see the border of the second form. When I click the button again, the form is hidden, and when I click it again, it appears again but then the border is gone.

I'm trying to change a forms title at runtime where it = my textbox's text. But I can't even get it to change to "test". When I try to google it, it comes up with vb6's
.caption = "test".
When I try to search it on the forum, it gives me a error message saying:
"Error 502 Bad gateway"
Currently my program randomly removes words from a set of text and inserts textboxes below the text. The user can then enter his/her answers in the new textboxes. What I would like to do is set the program so the user can have two choices one being Easy and other being Advanced. Then when the user hits either button it brings up everything that is currently on the form. I'd prefer to do this without having to use MDI forms. I've had a hard time using the MDI forms and therefore would like to avoid using them. They way I was thinking this could work is all objects would remain invisible except for the 2 buttons and then when you hit one of them they disappear and everything else appears.
View 1 RepliesI have a basic form which call functions on a numbers of different forms up to (30), Do these functions run in parrallel, or are they run sequentually.Each function as present calls for disk access, if the threads are running in series, this will present a considrable relay, this is not acceptable.

On my program I would like a track bar to change the Opacity of certain forms. There is a checked list box so if the user checked the main form and some other forms, boxes and used the track bar to change the Opacity of those forms. If the user uses the track bar and goes right it will increase the Opacity and to the left decreases the Opacity. Then when the user is all done He/She will press the Apply button to apply the changes of the Main Form or Forms.
View 11 RepliesWell I'm not sure how to describe it so i uploaded an image that has 2 different control box positions.
[URL]
The one on top is set up as Render Mode=System while the other image is set up as Render Mode= ManagerRenderMode
Both applications were developed in VB using VS2005.
Each one has its MDI container and their MainMenuStrip set up..
What property/reason would be causing this? I just created a test program simulating the same case (MDI container with child forms) and everytime i maximized the control boxes appear in the correct position.
I think it was Joshdbr) a long time ago a directory rename program. However, I need help changing this to a file rename program. Our work directory will have a root folder, subfolder and .tif images:

I have a ContextMenuStrip attached to a TextBox
Dim TelTBMenu As New ContextMenuStrip
With TelTBMenu
.Name = "TelTBMenu"
[Code]....
Whilst the form is loaded this runs fine twice, but then although the Setting boolean is reset the ToolStripItem text remains unchanged unless the form is re-loaded.
My program has two lists, one a listbox and the other a listview viewed in details mode.
Both of them change heights (get taller) for no obvious reason. I am having to add a call to a method that resizes them to the end of every method, which is kind of absurd, I think. Also, when the window size is changed, these components change size, which means I have to keep track of that.
Edit: I had also thought of adding a timer to handle this.
