Currently I am trying to make mouse driven game of Reversi/Othello. I've made a UserControl called ucSquare which is used to manage the colour change of the squares on the board. When the form loads I I programmatically generate the board and initial state. Up to now everything seems good. To show I've done at least something here's the function on the form to load the board while the attached picture shows it generated.
Public Sub PopulateSquares()
squareDimension = (SmallestNumber(Me.Width, Me.Height) \ 9)
Dim pt As Point
[code]....
is there a way force this click to the form (force the event handler)?orIf already in the clickEvent of the userControl what is the best way(or a way) to allow the form to take over and/or obtain he curser/array position for calculation?
Form1.ToolStrip1.Items.Add(New ToolStripButton With {.Text = TextBox2.Text, .Tag = TextBox1.Text, .Image = fav,.}

I am writing an application that requires button controls to be created at run time because the amoutn of controls created depends on data retrieved from a database.
I believe I am creating the control properly but I am not capturing the click event.
Code example:
Dim myButton As Button
myButton = New Button
myButton.id = "id"

View 1 RepliesI have been trying to figure out how to get my code to work. (It was a homework assignment which has already been turned in but I am determined to get this code to work.)I have a text box titled txtSearch and btnClick.I need to search a list box for a city name and then have it displayed in a message box. If there is not a match then I need to display an alternative message box stating there is no match. City is in the list box starting at 16.The text needs to be case insensitive.I am only getting the message "That is not a valid city." for any entry that I type into my txtSearch even though I know it should be a match.
Here is what I have for code
Private Sub btnFind_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnFind.Click
' Declare variables to find text on txtSearch when button clicked
Dim length As Integer = txtSearch.TextLength
Dim value As String = txtSearch.Text.ToUpper

I am trying to create 5 Bitmaps 'on the fly' which I want to use in a ToolStrip DropDown.So far I have found a working way but I wonder if there isn't an easier way to do that?The reason why I have to create this images 'on the fly' is because users can select different colors for the Categories (which I have managed with Button(x).BackColor, so, in order to have the Menu Items shown the exact same colors I try to get a Bitmap based on the Button's back color and add it as MenuItem picture.Here is my code to create the images:
Public Sub MenuCategoryImages()
Dim menuPic1 As Bitmap = New Bitmap(24, 24, PixelFormat.Format1bppIndexed)
Dim pal1 As ColorPalette = menuPic1.Palette

I have started learning a bit about programming. "Create a new project, and add two text boxes and a button to the form. Write code that, when a button is clicked, places the text in the first text box into the second text box. Hint: Use the Text property of the TextBox controls." Now I am trying to look at it logically do I put the same text in both textbox properties and write code that says if it is visible in one it cant be in the other or declare the text in the code, either way I am a bit stumped, but feel if a stick with it it will click and i will be writing my own code in no time.
View 8 RepliesI have been learning VB2008 and have been working a little with the toolstrip. While this question isn't really urgent, I've been thinking down the road about images and image libraries that I would like to build and use in my programs. I am thinking I should set up my own library so that all programs I write will have the same look (at least as often as I want them to).
1) What does everyone use to create images? What programs, features, etc. are important? Eg. I have MSPaint and and old version of CorelDraw but have never really used them to high quality stuff.
2) Are people just using the images provided in VB2008 Pro?
3) What should I consider when working with images for use in Windows Forms programming? Currently I am not doing any web work.
What possible code will I use for this particular situation:
I my form: If the button is clicked, a Text Box will be created in the form.
Then if the button is clicked again, another text box will appear and so on and so forth.
I am creating a small program which has a few texboxes which i want to saved in a access database.My problem is i have no clue what code belongs to such button.I have added the database to my datasources, and linked the fields from the database to the textboxes.But thats all i got so far,.Being searching around the net for a few days to figure this out, but no luck.in my access db i got the fields firstname, surename, address1, address2, postcode, phone, email.Each are linked to their matching textbox on the form.
View 2 RepliesI am currently developing a small capture system program. What I intend to do is to create a hot key for my program to capture image (press F8 then it will invoke a button to click automatically). What I manage to do for the time being is only registerHotkey procedure. (Please refer to the coding below). I am unable to create a hot key which perform like a button click.
This is just a testing program: I have 2 forms specifically. Form1 with a button and form2 with a picture box.
I would like to run this program where I can just simply click F8(for instance) instead of clicking the button.
For the time being I am able to run this program and put it in the system tray when I minimize/closed it. When I click F9 the program will pop up again. What I would like to do now, is clicking F8 (for instance and the program able to click a button from form 1 automatically). I had used PerformClick but still unable to do so.

I am using VB 2008 and doing the project on office 2007. I've created a Ribbon (Visual Designer) and put a button. Now thats all I've done.

View 2 RepliesI have used this form to add new records on my database(ms access) in my database I have a column name 'ID' which is my primary key 'ID' is set as auto number. Now I am having a trouble on creating my update and delete button it's always saying "cannot be delete/update"
Here's my code on add, update and delete
Public Sub SaveRecord()
Try
Dim dbConn As OleDbConnection
Dim dbInsert As New OleDbCommand
Dim str1, str2, str3, str4, str5, str6, str7, str8, str9 As String

Note my add is working perfectly fine. I just can find the error on my delete and update. Also I have used this to view it to my datagrid I don't know if its the right thing but it's working fine too.

I am trying to write a program using Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition that will automaticlay generate multiple Command Buttons that have different Texts and perform different commands.For example I want to generate Button_1 and Button_2 where Button_1 when clicked enters the value "1" into a textbox and Button_2 enters the value "2" into the same textbox.I know this can be simple done by using the designer and wirting the code in the Button_1_Click, but what I want to eventually achieve is for various buttons to be generated across different Tabs in a TabControl.So far I can create a button on a windows form using code, but the button has no purpose so command is assigned to it. The code i've used is listed below:
