How does one go about creating their own toolbar for Internet Explorer, or something along those lines? I've been doing some digging around the web, but nobody has really made it clear whether or not it's possible to do with vb.net. I tend to keep in mind that there is almost nothing that isn't possible in vb.net but that's almost.
I'm trying to create an IE addon that allows me to just switch proxy settings. I'm sure there is something like this already, but for me it's an exercise in programming and learning as well.

I want to create my own toolbar/band for IE. I've searched all over and can only find a few small C++ or C# references but nothing in VB 2005. How to create this.
I have a Quick Launch Toolbar linked to a folder of shortcuts.In this folder I link other folders and applications that I use commonly.I'm trying to use WSH to create a shortcut to a folder in my Quick Launch toolbar, but the shortcut isn't being created correctly.I suspect my problem is that, evidently, Windows has two kinds of shortcuts to folders.Using Explorer,I navigate to my Quick Launch folder, and choose the File | New | Shortcut, supplying the name of another folder as a target, it creates the shortcut.Using Explorer, looking at the shortcut in the details panel, Win says the shortcut is of type "Shortcut". Looking at its properties, the type is also Shortcut, and looking at the Shortcut tab, the Target Type is "Folder" and the Target location is the path I supplied. Now create the shortcut another way.Locate the folder in Explorer, and right-click-drag it to the same Quick Launch folder, choosing to Create a Shortcut.Now, Explorer thinks the shortcut is of type "Folder" and looking at it's properties, the Type is Folder (Target Type isn't shown) and the Target does point to the real location.There isn't a Shortcut tab now either.Both are definitely shortcuts to the same folder (I've double-checked), but they work differently in Quick Launch.If you pull up the Quick Launch toolbar and hover over the second shorcut, Windows pops out a sub-menu that contains the folder's contents. However, there is no such functionality using the first shortcut, you would have to choose Explore from the right-click menu to view it's contents.
(Below, the "Work" dir is my Quick Launch toolbar's folder)Using WSH, I can create a shortcut that doesn't autoexpand as follows: Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")[code].....

I recently started a project and I have successfully completed the autoclicker part. But I am wondering how to add on to the autoclicker to make it locates a color and then click on that color. So for example:
User presses find color button (color the mouse is currently over) Cursor finds color red, Cursor locates and clicks all color reds until new color is clicked, Repeat.
Anyone know of a way to do addon's with a visual basic program? I want to create a program that has some basic functions, but to stay away from bloatware and unused functions. How would you create a main program when it is installed and then be able to add and remove features to it?
I would like to do the Post method in visual basic, is this possible ?Here is an addon that I truly like for Firefox, just to get a sense of what I'm talking about.[URL]..
My idea is that i want to create a auto-shutdown app that will allow me to auto-shutdown after downloads have completed using IE6. Third part download managers have these built in for example however i would like to make one for IE download dialog. Any ideas on how do start. Detect when a download is active, set time, autoshutdown etc.
Trying to make a simple browser with some simple addon's. What Ive done is setup a menu(forum) for the user to enter their email providers web address and it will save it in a xml file. When they click on the email link, it should load the email xml iformation and place that info in the tb_html.text and navigate. I keep getting a null exception and im not sure what going on here. Here is the code:
Browsers: Private Sub btn_Email_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btn_Email.Click 'Load Action Dim SavedEmailObj As Storage
I am trying to add a toolbar to my app and I would like to use larger icons than the standard 16x16. An older VB6 app that I created had large icons but I cannot figure out how to get my VB.net app to change to use the large icons.
I can't find an answer to this question anywhere. How do I add a control to the toolbar? I clicked Add reference and added the Microsoft Internet Transfer Protocol, but I can't see it on the toolbar. I also tried with another reference, but couldn't get it there either.
So, should it be there or am I completely wrong? Quirky commenters, please choose another thread. I just want an answer.
EDIT: To make it easier from the start for you guys: I use version 2008.
In .net MDI application the menu of child form automatically is merged to the menu of parent form.Is there a way to do similar thing with the tool bars.The concept is to send the toolbar of active child to the parent toolbar stripe
I hava a MDI form toolbar with command buttons and a picturebox on it.The problem is when I maximize the MDI form on runtime. The picturebox does not change its location to extreme right. I would like to have the picturebox on right hand side of the toolbar all the time, wether MDI form is maximized or in resized condition.
Not really sure what's going on here, but basically I got a new Component/Addon for my Windows Forms. I go and reference it to the Toolbar, which it accepts, and the 3 new components pop up on the screen, all fine and dandy.However, I go and press OK to add them to a group, and nothing happens. They aren't added. So, I try again, same thing. Thinking it could be a bug with the new Component, I make a new group and try to add a built in item to it, and to my surprise, nothing happens as well.
I am using Vb 2008, and im trying 2 enable a copy button thats in a toolbar until there is text selected in my rich text box. (normal state of the button is disabled.)

If Editor.SelectionLength > 1 Then CopyToolStripMenuItem.Enabled = True End If End Sub
I am thinking about make a toolbar like... the quick launch toolbar, with autohide, top position (opposite of start/task bar), skinnable, etc.Is this possible? I need it to work with XP and Vista. I am using Visual Studio 2008, VB.NET.
I am using VS2010 Pro and can no longer see the step into command buttons on the toolbar. That and the step out have disappeared. I know I had many more toolbar buttons across the top that I don't see now but the debug toolbar is checked but there isn't even the step into or step out options to add to the toolbar.
I have created a toolbar on my form and added icons (.ico or .png) such as New, Open, Save, etc. I can't seem to find out how to make my icons transparent so I don't have the white background displayed on the icons.
