Create Standalone Distributable Exe, And Choose Installation Folder
Jan 13, 2010I created a Visual Studio 2005 application that works and installs on other user's computers, but not the way I want.
1. I want to create a single file that I can distribute to any user so when he clicks it, the application will be INSTALLED.
2. When it installs, it chooses to do in its own location. It does not give the user an option to save or install in a specific folder (where the application will be used because other files are there). How do i allow the user to save the the application in a specific folder?
3. I would like a single file that the user clicks to RUN the application. Is that the in*.exe?

Forms :: Choose Item From ComboBox And Save Selected Value To DataSet
Dec 23, 2009I have a problem with a combobox. I have a form (with information about clients) with textboxes binded to a dataview. One of the columns in the dataview contains a number that tells me what kind of client it is. I don't my users want that my users have to fill in a number in a textbox, but I want them to choose a item from a combobox. De selected value should be the value that is actually saved in the database.
This is my
Dim cmd As New SqlCommand
Dim dr As SqlDataReader
VerbindingMaken()
cmd.Connection = cnnVraagbaak
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
[Code] .....
De Datasource is the information in my combobox. With Databindings I'm trying to bind it to my dataset (or view, that doesn't work either) with clients. Every time I get a NullReferenceExeption. The moment I remove the line cbo.DataSource = dsRelatie.Tables("Relatiesoort"), I don't get an error, but it doesn't work either.
That dataset is filled (I've checked) and also the derived view. The column Relatiesoort exists. What do I have to do to make it possible for my users to choose an item from a combobox and save the selected value to the underlying dataset?

It's going to be a simple time graph, with time on the bottom and a few stuff on the y axis.What I want is for the user to be able to enter the date. I would like it to be like a numeric stepper. Before I had two numeric steppers in the form but I decided one would be best.The idea was it would be like this: mm:hh [UP/DOWN ARROWS HERE]I saw one that was in use in an actual program. It had it so when you clicked the minutes, it selected the minutes and you could change them. The you could select the hours and change them. How would I do this?
View 2 RepliesMDI - Childforms - Application - User Can Choose Which Modul He Wants To Use
Oct 4, 2010Here is a simplified hierarchy of a application I want to create:
1. Mainform - here should be a navigation pane, where a user can choose which modul he wants to use.
2. Childform Reports, Childform Maintenance, Childform To Do, Childform Management, ... - depending on which modul of the program the user wants to work with, a proper childform will appear as the main working part of the application
3. Childform CostReport, Childform TurnoverReport, Childform EmployeesReport, ... - if user wants to work with Childform Reports (chosen in 2. paragraph) he can work with one of these childforms.
I wanted to do this with MDI childforms, but visual basic keeps telling me that a form can be a MDI container only as a toplevel, which Childform Reports isn't. So i can make the program till 2nd paragraph but when i want to make the 3rd, its a problem.
I put the error here: "Top-level style of a parented control cannot be changed.
Parameter name: value"
Is there a workaround?
Maybe i could use TabControl for the 3rd paragraph, but its not that convient, since I want to use more "tabs" or forms...
