Closing Form1 Save Enough?
May 25, 2009
In my application I am using some sort of 'FirstRun Wizard' to make basic settings such as data path, theme settings and other adjustments before the application starts for the first time. I am using the following at Application Start to accomplish that:
If My.Settings.FirstStart = "1" Then
dlg_FirstRun.ShowDialog()
Me.Hide() 'Form1 - my main form
End If
Now, my "FirstRun" dialog has a Cancel Button and I want the application to exit entirely if that button is pressed. At first I used Application.Exit() but it looked a bit strange because my Form1 gets shown for a fraction of a second before the application closes. With Form1.Close() I can do the same thing and the advantage is that my form does not show up at all. However, I wonder if this is a save way of doing it?

Last one day I could not manage to pass data from one form2 other form.
When I am opening Form2 from Form1, I can pass data from Form1 to Form2.
When I am closing Form2, I want to pass data from Form2 to Form1 which is still open when I close form2.
I try to use shared textbox, but I understand that this is nt supported.

I have a project using Application Framework and then a main form which displays the main UI. There's another form I call it frmLog, which is solely used for logging any operations internal message logging. By default, I created a Global MyApplication logging object called myLogger which is an object of type frmLog. In Application_StartUp, I instantiate it by myLogger = New frmLog. On the main UI form, there's a button Show Log which does myLogger.Visible = Not myLogger.Visible.

How Do I Save Listbox Values When Form Is Closing? and how do I load saved listbox values when my form opens again? Listboxes just don't seem to want to save. I suggest trying it out before posting unless you know the answer because simply using property binding in the applications settings doesn't want to work.

Using VB 2008:Situation: A Form1.BackgroundWorker calls a Form1.subroutine. That sub starts a Form1.Timer with Me.tmrOK_BlinkForm.Enabled = True...fires Timer code in event: Public Shared Sub tmrOK_BlinkForm_Tick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles tmrOK_BlinkForm.Tick
Form3.Visible = True
Form3.Label1.Text = gNowButtonDispText
Form3.BackColor = Color.White
Form3.Refresh()
[Code]...
There must be a way to do this, I just need the correct BackgroundWorker Syntax send Stop commad to Form1.Timer from Form3.Click_event...all inside a Form1.BackgroundWorker thread started in Form1.

I need to be able to start with Form1, move to LoginForm, then back to Form1 taking 2 variables and the "values" they have in the LoginForm back to Form1 and using the variables. I start with the main form (Form1) and have the user enter some information. Once they click OK I have the LoginForm open. After they enter their credentials I will check to make sure they are legal users, then go back to Form1 (here is where I need to take the Username and Password with me) to log onto a server using the same credentails from the login form.

Form1 is a mdi container. It has a bunch of forms that can load inside of it as mdi children. If I close each open form inside the form1, and then click the red X at the top right, application exits fine.If I click the red X without closing the forms inside I get: An unhandled exception of type 'System.CannotUnloadAppDomainException' occurred in mscorlib.dll
Additional information: Error while unloading appdomain. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131015) However I can break from it. How do I get the application to not show that error? What must I do to fix those inside forms or close when the red x is clicked?

Dim frm As Form
For Each frm In Forms
Set frm = Nothing
Next frm
The above code is what I used in VB6 to close all forms associated with my programs before my program closed. I have been searching for information on how to make sure all forms are closed when closing a VB2008 program.
I have seen info on using the Project Property Shutdown mode When startup form closes and I currently have this set.
Is this all that is really necessary? Will the garbage disposal close everything else to free up RAM?
Also, if I have several forms open and want to close all from the main form without closing each one individually, what is the best approach? Is there a collection like in VB6, go through the collection, compare it to the name of the main form and close it if it is not the main form?

I am utilizing a webbrowser control in vb.net 2005 to display excel workbooks
We are using this control to open excel documents. Webbrowser.ShowSaveAsDialog() allows the user to save the excel workbook open at any location he wants
However, I don't want the user to decide where to save. Is there any way to save an excel document from the webbrowser control without going through the ShowSaveAsDialog?
On closing of webbrowser, a simple prompt to user whether he/she would like to save changes should be fine enough
As of now, I can close webbrowser control and it does not prompt the user to save the changes. Actually, all changes are lost until and unless I perform a save (Ctrl+S) manually

I may have corrupted my Visual Studio Software. I have two problems which may be related. The first is when I open anew project, I can't change the name of the form. I enter frmXXXX and it returns a splash box indicating I may loose my programming. If I continue the program gives me an unusable form. This happens when I have not even begun to use the form. My Visual Studio is set up to work with Visual Basic only.
Secondly, when I try to incorporate events, I can not get them to function. Using the basic form set as Form1, the Load event will work, but it enters as "Private sub Form1_Load ........ Handles MyBase.Load not Me.Load. When I try to use the events: KeyPress. KeyDown Or KeyUp, I can't get them to function. They also are entered as ........ MyBase.KeyPress. To enter an event I go to the Properties Menu, and use the event enry, click on the function, then double click the function. The sub-routine is loaded into the program, but doesn't function. I am learning by using a text book that the same programming works in a demo which was downloaded.
