Creating A Pause/Freeze During Runtime?
Mar 6, 2012
Problem: Need to get a picturebox to display four images, one after each other. But in a way in which during runtime the changes can be seen.
So I figured if after every image is changed for example if I had some sort of timer, then during runtime the image will be shown, then after a certain period the next one would be shown and etc. I tried doing this using a timer and then a stopwatch but both time's no change can be seen in runtime and there is a small wait before the last image comes up.
I then also, tried using sleep, but that also showed no changes. Underneath is a quick piece of coding of what I'm trying to achieve, but instead of textboxs, for the sake of what I'm trying to do I will be using pictureboxs.
CODE:
Question: I've tried all I know in regards to timers and so on with no luck.

1) Why the pause button and also the pause command does not exist in VB 2010 Express?
2) I have some solutions under 2010. In 2 or 3, while debugging, I can change instructions without restarting the application. In others, I cannot change anything (Is like readonly), Looking in 'My Applications', Tab 'Debug', Option 'Configuration' I can choose several Options. In the applications I can debug, the default is 'Active (Debug)'; in the others is 'Active (Release)'. If I change the options, the word 'Active' remains attached to the original option.

Needing pointed in the right direction. I am fooling around with data sources and connections per homework and what I'm looking for is creating an SQL DB connection during runtime. I know that you can add a data source in design by going through the Wizard but what if one would want to create the connection, adapter, and dataset during runtime? Where would you start?
I have cruzed the net looking for some form of a tutorial to just get me started, I don't need it all completely outlined but I need to know where and how to start and what I need to declare the connection, string, and dataset as. I have seen a lot of information using VB6 but nothing that I come across seems to work.
My basic questions are:Do I have to create a seperate class for the database connection?How do I delcare the nuts and bolts of the connection,adapter, and dataset?If a seperate class isn't required then where is the most realistic place these items would be created?

How can you add a system DSN with its security credentials programmatically at runtime from VB.NET? Keeping key in ODBC.INI is done, but when creating ODBC, it asks for Authentication Type (SQL or Network Login).How can we set that option at runtime?

I'm trying to make labels at runtime. The idea is to create them on the fly in runtime.
I have this on my form:
btnAdd
txtName
txtAge
[Code]....
Which work fine, but if I want to create another label, how do I check to see if one or more labels have already been created and then apply a new location of the new label? (so it doesn't get override on the same location on the form?)

Im creating a fairly simple game, and when the left key is pressed i need a new picturebox to be created.Heres the code Private Sub frmMain_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyDown
[Code]...
Now there are no errors in the code apparently, but when the left key is pressed, the picture box isnt appearing. I added the "lblAnswer1.visible = false" just to test the keydown functionality, and that works.

im doing a project in which im basically trying to make an etch-a-sketch style program.
I am using a 5x5 pixel picture box as the 'cursor' and have made the program so that i can move the picture box with the arrow keys. I am currently trying to work out how to make a trail of identical picture boxes (from an array of picture boxes) appear wherever the cursor has been using this code
Case Keys.Left
CurrentLoc = New Point(PictureBox1.Location.X, PictureBox1.Location.Y)
If Not PictureBox1.Location.X - 5 < 0 Then
[Code]....
Basically, im trying to make a trail by moving the original picturebox and the inserting an identical picturebox in the original's previous position. However, the new identical ones do not display

I have an app that I'm debugging and I need to pause it by clicking on a "pause" button in the development environment. I don't want to stop it programmatically, just manually to check what it is doing. I know this should be simple but I can't find a pause button anywhere on the toolbar.

I am having some problems adding controls at runtime, or I guess I should say accessing the controls after adding them.The application starts off with a tab control named "tabIncidents" and one tab for an incident information. The user can click on a button to add a client. When the button is pressed a second tab is added to "tabIncidents" named "Clients." On the newly created "Clients" tab another tabcontrol is added named "tabClients" and we create a tab named "Client". Multiple "Client" tabs can be created on this tabcontrol. Each "Client" tab gets a usercontrol added named "clientInformation" which has name and address textboxes.
So basically it is ...
TabIncidents.tabFirstTab (already exists)
TabIncidents.Clients (new tab added at runtime if user clicks a button)
TabIncidents.Clients.tabClients (new tabcontrol on the new tab)
[code]....

I am building a form that will eventually list a group of functions on the left. If you drag a function onto the form, it will create a listbox and a label at the loction you dropped it to. If you drag a function into a listbox, it will add that function as a listbox item. I have this working kind of. The problem is that once I create a new listbox, I am no longer able to add items to the previous ones. Here is my code:
Public Class Form1
Private MouseIsDown As Boolean = False
'rivate Functionlist As ListBox

Recently I have been wanting to learn a bit more about Visual Basic and I've decided that I want to test my abilities by Making a Card game. The card game uses a customized deck of around 140 card. The Cards are all buildings which you need to place down by discarding a specific amount of cards in yoiur hand. The Objective of the game is to get 12 buildings built and get the most points. Many cards will be layed down at some point in the game.The way I think I will be creating the game is by Creating a Class for the Deck which will use a class for the Card. I would like the Card Class to somehow create a picture box of the cards image on the form which will hold all the other cards being displayed.

At design-time, when one clicks a control it is selected and this state is depicted with a frame drawn around the control. I would like to know how can I mimic the same effect at runtime; that is, how can I draw a similar frame around a control when the user clicks over it?
