I'd like the following 4 characters cycle in a label (I think it�s the old UNIX progress bar):
[Code]...
I accomplished it by using 4 timers used as flip flop but I don�t think it�s the right way to do it. Is there an easier way to accomplish it by using looping? I tried with no avail even by using 4 labels and overlapping them.
how to set a Label's text to say how many times the timer is cycling after it is triggered. For example,
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
message.To.Add(TextBox1.Text & TextBox2.Text)
[Code]....
I want a Label to tell me how many times this timer sends ONE email, each time, the labels value increases by +1.
I have question about Label.Text.
When run the code Form1 load together with Form2.On Form2 I have Label1.I need that Label.Text flicker or blinking.
I have a form that I am loading text (strings) from a database into a label.text (so the text from the database shows up into the label) I have done this code in a class that keeps all my database stuff seperate.
Public Function getQuestions() As List(Of String)
Dim question As New List(Of String)
objConnection.Open()
objReader = objcommand.ExecuteReader
[CODE]...
Within the form that the label is in I have done this code
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Label1.Text(db.getQuestions().ToArray)
End Sub
I am basically making a quiz, so that when the form loads, question 1 is on there is 4 possible answers. You then press next button and it goes to the next question.
Is there an effecient way to give one label the ForeColor, BackColor and Text of another one of 3 possible labels? I need to do this frequently for a dozen labels in a windows form.
View 2 RepliesI am using a label to display a song for an mp3 player. I wanted to scroll the text inside the label for anything that is longer than the label width. I figured out the width of the label and if the width of the text inside the label is longer. But I have no idea how to turn this into subtracting parts/pixels of the text currently displayed and how to append the subtracted parts to the end of the new text.

basically i need to change the text of a label where the name of the label comes from the value of a variable.So, for example,
Dim x as String = "lblTarget"
Dim y as String = "Target Text"
In this case the text of "lblTarget" would need to be come "Target Text". Basically, the label that is named the value of variable x would need to take on the text of variable y.
Is there any way to detect if the text in a label is longer than the label itself (assuming autosize is set to false)? I want to trim the text in a label so the last line is a finished sentence (everything after that sentence is removed). I hope you understand what I mean.
I want to go from this:"Hello. This is a test string. Most test stri..."
to"Hello. This is a test string."
Is there any easy way to do this?
I am creating a Pizza Order program as part of my coursework college. why something isn't working.
Quote:
lblTotal.Text = Val(Form2.lblPizzaTotal.Text) + Val(Form3.lblDrinksTotal.Text)
The code above is what I am using to add the Value of Label 1 (Pizza Total) and Label 2 (Drinks Total), however it seems that in the final total it doesn't appear to add the value of Label 2.
I am currently working on a project for myself which looks through employee's information to find their availability to work. I've tried making a structure which holds the employee's information but I can't think of a good way to create different instances of it and store information in it at runtime. I'd prefer to load the information in at startup and not have to declare each employee and information. I am very new to Visual Basic 2008 but I have a good grasp of arrays from C and C++.

I have a function that is giving me fits.This is designed to identify all files in a given directory (myPath), and then cycle through those files. Each file in the directory is a well-formed XML file full of name/value pairs. Here is an example of what they contain:

How do you convert an integer to a usable color (for PictureBox.CreateGraphics)?
The color should start at red, cycle to orange, yellow, etc. and come all the way back around to red again.
This is in vb.net. If I cannot do this, how do I use PictureBox.CreateGraphics with a hex code instead of a pen?
I'm really really rusty/rubbish at this, but I have a series of 11 bitmaps in my resources folder.
I'd like, each time I click a button, a different image loads in sequence into a picture box. How do I do this. I know I've got to some array which loads the images, and a loop to increment through the array, but I can't put it together with the resources folder and the PictureBox control.
I sort of got something like this:
Private
Sub Button1_Click(ByVal
sender As System.Object,

cycle through the cell values of particular column in a datagridview. and if duplicates are found, display them in a message box.
Dim wacko As String
wacko = DataGridView1.Rows(0).Cells(1).Value
For m As Integer = 0 To DataGridView1.Rows.Count
[code]....
Now this is a very basic concept, but the problem is when the last row value is returned, i get an indexing error "Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name: index" i tried to count-1, but that doesnt cover everything. And even easier, would be to set no duplicate allowed in the datatable itself. but i want to fill those particualr rows with color.
I have the table part working fine, but i get an error for the cell part

how i should cycle through each cell?

I am using vb.net by the way. From what I understand, Xna is not usable in visual Basic. Therefore, in order to create my characters, I defined a sprite class. Now my question is.... (I am drawing everything using a timer on the form btw by the process of invalidation.)... how do I use time to cycle through the images in an image array while the instance has no focus, and whilst the class inherits the "Control" class? Basically, how do i get these instances to act without user input? I want a character to eventually respond to user input, but I also need npcs that do not need any input in order to move themselves. Also, I need this in such a way that each instance's processes do NOT interfere with the processes of others. So that whatever timing I use does not also stall the whole window/form.
View 2 RepliesI am having trouble adding label.text, datetimepicker.text and ComboBox1.Text into listview1 box.I have set up multiple columns, one for the label, one for the date and one for the combo box text. All i have done is:
ListView1.Items.Add(DateTimePicker1.Text)ListView1.Items.Add(TextBox1.Text)ListView1.Items.Add(ComboBox1.Text)
How do i add these in the different columns so that they are all in one single row.
I have a label that reads a random line from a text file and that string becomes the text for the label.
Now the problem; the label will only work if it is clicked because the event handler is click.What I need is this to work automatically at startup. In other words, it should change the label's text to the random string of the text file on startup of the application.
Here is my code.[code..]
I cant seem to find any link or topic regarding my problem. I have 2 forms in a project, form one has labels and adjacent combobox while the other form (form 2)has textboxes with adjacent combobox. I am supposed to change the text property of the labels using textbox entry from form 2 and add/delete/change combobox contents in fom 1 using entries combobox at form 2.

I want to force all capitol letters in a label and when text is input into a text box. How can I do this?
View 1 RepliesI am wondering if there is a simple way to make the text to speech occur after the updating of label.text
If I have the following:label.Text = "words words" voice.Speak(label.Text)
I would like the label on the form to display "words words" before it speaks. I'm a beginner with vb, and the only thing I could come up with was to use a timer. Just wondering if there's a simpler/more sophisticated solution.
I have this problem but I already simplify the code as below:Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Label1.Text = "hello"
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000)
'MessageBox.Show("hahahaha")
Label1.Text = "world"
End Sub
What I'm trying to achieve here is, after I click the button, the label1.text should change to hello, and after that to world. But I couldn't achieve that. Instead when I click the button, it just paused for 5 second and displayed world.System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000) The code is just a dummy for a loop that I have.
I have a question, how to count how many times the text has changed in label.text ??
