View 6 RepliesI've been trying for about a month or so but been busy recently so couldn't address it then. Here is the code.
Public Class Form1

ButtonStart.Enabled = False

I know that even when the timer is disabled, it still keeps on accumulating so I need a way that when the timer is paused, the timer doesn't keep on accumulating and when the timer is resumed, the timer continues from where it was when it was paused.
I would lik a timer of 1 minute in one of my forms, and when that timer reaches zero, it would automaticly resume to the next form
View 10 RepliesAlright im trying to make it where in Visual Basic 2008 you click on a box ether 10, 20, or 30. Then that tells a timer that the program needs to turn off in 10, 20, or 30 minutes. What I basically want it to do is, whenever the set amount time is when it goes off it shows form1(login form). I have prepared a picture can anyone supply me with some information on how to do this?

View 38 RepliesI am having a mental block on how to work out a 15 minute timer that is shown on a label and counts down so that the user can watch it. I can do it just fine in seconds but I need to put it into the format of 15:00 and then have it count down the seconds and the the minutes when ever it drops 60 seconds. I found a few articles on using the dateNow syntax but that seems like it would only be good for adding time not subtracting it. Also I know I can set up a button to start and stop the timer but is it possible to use the space bar as the start/stop button?
View 5 RepliesI am trying to make a Process Estimator application. It should tell the user how fast hes computer is. The output should be the number to calculate to and how much time did it take in mili-seconds (timer interval set to 100). I enable the timer before it starts calculating, but the problem is when it start calculating the timer stops for some reason...
This is the

am really getting to know more about programming each day. really interesting.
i have a form with some labels.. i need each label to display a text after certain time of the time count. i have this piece i put together.. didnt work but i guess it need a little professional touch.

Problem (1) Basically I got a Sub handling a button click, in the Sub I start my timer. In the timer_tick, a value is assigned to a variable and then the timer stops. This variable at the given time should be used later on the sub, however whats currently happening is that the the timer is starting; but I figured the sub must continue going as the variable dosn't change till the sub ends and then the timer begins to do all its ticks so to say.So basically how would one go about making it so that once I start my timer,for the sub to stay where it is, do everything till the timer stops and then continues.
Problem (2) This is in regards to the timer being broken, basically i'll show my code below. Whats happening is that at "ElseIf county = publicx Then" the timer must be stopping right before, as it's not doing the if statement and in my form nothing is changing and its locked as the timer hasn't finished. In my timer the form should unlock before finishing, so I know for sure its not finishing. So whats going on with my timer, why is it freezing on me? Also, for the record @ count=publicx both values are 1 and the countertime=0; so the variables are correct.
Private Sub Timer_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer.Tick
Dim CwStich As Boolean = False
Dim pbName As String = ("PB" & county & publicy)[code]......
I have three sets of labels, lbl_seconds, lbl_minutes and lbl_hours. These labels have the default value of 00:00 and I want the timer to change that for each label. I have googled this but I cannot seem to find any good info on it. Do I need three separate timers? I have also noticed that the timers have their own tick event handler. I guess it's in this that I need to change the value of the label. But I cannot figure out how to do just that.
View 2 RepliesI have a this program I have to write but I have no clue where to even start.New Years Ball Drop?Design a program that replicates the Times Square New Year�s Eve ball drop. You can use a picture from the Internet of the ball you wish to use.Functionality Requirements:
-The ball will take exactly 30 seconds to move down the pole
-Need a timer to count down from 30 and reach 0 when the ball is at the end of the pole
-The timer will randomly change colour every few seconds
- When the ball has finished descending, the text �Happy New Year!� will display on the screen
-Need a button on the form that, when clicked, stops the ball drop and timer (so screenshots can be taken). When the button is clicked again, the timer and ball drop should resume from where it left off.

View 1 RepliesIn the last day or two I've lost the ability to edit code while the program is running (and halted at a breakpoint).I also can't instantiate otherwise unused test variables for purposes of examination - I'm told they don't exist in the current context.Also System. Diagnostics.Debug doesn't work anymore.the error message generated when attempting to edit is :Changes are not allowed in the following cases:
- When the debugger has been attached to an already running process.
- The code being debugged was optimized at build or run time.
- The assembly being debugged is loaded as domain-neutral.
- The assembly being debugged was loaded through reflection.
I suspect that optimizations are being performed that are causing all this but I can't find where they are being set nor why they have changed.tools/options/debug shows that Edit and Continue is enabled although it is grayed out while the progarm is running. Windows 7, X86.

My client wants an intelligent combo box with type ahead capability. For example let's I have a list of companies. I want to find my company "MetaPro". With the Microsoft combo box if you type in the first letter of the name it will bring up first one starting with that letter. For example I type in "M" it will bring up "Mass. Dept. of Ed.", I then type in "E" I get the first one starting with "E" maybe "E, G & G" where I want the first one starting with "ME".
Perhaps there is an open source solution to this or I could create a custom control. But I don't know how.

View 2 RepliesI'm presently creating an application which uses Access2007 as the database. No problem there. But Since most use Excel for data-entry, i've created two tables in access linked to excel source file. Any change in excel will reflect in Access database and subsequently in my Application . Until now my application only reads the database and displays records in DataGridView. These records, i then export to excel along with other formatting for direct printing as a report as I have no idea how to make report. Now i want to add data-entry capability to my app using password-protection user-access. So i can directly add new record to source file. Also need to know if There's any way of eliminating Access from the picture entirely....
View 1 RepliesI've got an issue with an Access97 replicated database that I'm writing a small monitoring app for. I've got FSW's to track changes to the necessary files, but am having some issue in enumerating exactly what has changed in some instances, specifically when attributes may have changed. I'm using a similar strategy to track this as I did for changes in size. I've got a Private class variable for the size of each file and a local method variable and compare the two, when different, update the class variable for the next comparison.

View 1 RepliesI have some reports that I use with the MS ReportViewer and I need to get a count of the physical pages (as opposed to logical page count) to use with a print dialog. I've implemented a workaround so the ReportViewer control displays the correct number of physical pages, but is there a way to get that value from the ReportViewer control? The only publicly accessible property gives the logical page count.
