View 2 RepliesI'm writing an MDI app in vb.net vs2010. The MDI form has the default MDIMenustrip menu with several menu items. Each has some subitems. None of the child forms have a menustrip defined. I thought it would be easy to call a public subroutine in the MDI that would disable or enable the MDIMenustrip items. If I execute the routine from the MDI form, the menu items disable/enable just fine. THe problem I have is when I call the routine from a child form. How can I control the MDI menu from a child form?
View 3 RepliesI have an aspx page with three web controls: one to control the List Users page, one to control the Edit Users page, and one to control the Add User page. I have discovered a method for accessing these elements, but it seems to be limited. Here is what I have done:
Protected Sub editUser(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewEditEventArgs)
'set selected user from gridview.

This works in most cases. However, I am unable to access the "enabled" attribute of these web controls. Why is this, and how might I access that attribute?

View 2 RepliesI have a main form, and some sub forms, and each sub form can have some sub forms. When I have multiple sub forms open, and I try to get data from the parent form, it returns the data from the wrong parent form.For example I have two instances of Mainform.subform running. If I do something like this in a child form of one instance of the subform. It returns data from the other subform.
dim l = Mainform.subform.listofdata
Edit:I am using visual Studio 2008. Winforms, form designed using designer. In my mainform I am doing this
Protected Friend frmMain as Mainform
frmmain = new mainform
In frmMain I am doing this
Protected Friend frmsub as new Subform'
frmsub = new subform

I have a table (Projects) which is linked to projectVersions on projectID..projectVersions contains several columns on which I'd like to filter a returned project (and associated projectVersions) list. For example there is a "capacity" column and a "country" column. I am doing a filtered list of projects on one page and I'd like to include all projects where any one of the associated projectVersions has a capacity of 750ml and a country of "France" for example.It may be that a particular parameter is not set and so I pass a zero to indicate not to filter on that.I guess this needs some kind of subquery as when I try and do something like this: [code] it doesn't work as the "xxx" bit, being one-to-many, expects me to specify an item to get at the entities within and yet I want to query where ANY of the associated versions match one of the criteria.

Note: I am working with Visual Studio 2010 Professional. Note: There are a lot of MDI Child posts, but none (that I have found) that apply to my scenario... Scenario I have an MDI form with a UserControl docked at the top. The UserControl is for navigation and is ~50 pixels in height. When I show a child form with its WindowState property already set to 'Maximized', the child form shows maximized in the MDI parent, but behind the UserControl.

I have 2 tables with relation from parent table (customers) and child table (orders) and i have all inside typed dataset.
Now i want a field of customers by datarelation from field child table.
Inside child table i have IDCustomers and i want Customers.FirstName
I think so, inside databinding form designer, inside Text i write
dsMaster.Orders.CustomersOrders.FirstName
I have two datatables inside a single dataset (all are typed). dtOriginalData contains roughly 25 or so fields, which included IDs, descriptions and other bits of data. The ID is the PKey in this case. dtEditData contains almost the same columns as the first,with a couple of extras thrown in. One of the fields in dtEditData is the ID from dtOriginalDatafter the two tables are loaded, I create a datarelation between the two using this ID field. I then update some of the fields in the dtEditData and set their expression to pull data from the Parent table (dtOriginalData) ... this is then fed to a grid. So far everythign works fineNow I need to add some functionality, displaying the Original Data, the Edited Data and the variances between the two.
The bindingContext is set cocrrectly. I've successfully bound all of the edited fields to their appropriate labels, and everything updates as I scroll through the data in the grid.It's all fine and dandy... except.... for the Original Data fields... I bound them to dtOriginalData.... and all I get is the first record displaying. It's not taking into consideration the relation between the two databases and advancing the index on it. So, what I need to find out, is if there is a way to do the databindings so that the two data tables will move in synch with each other, keeping the displayed values updated with the correct information. If, for some reason I can't find a way, I may have to resort to a gawd awful datatable with 30+ fields in it.

I'm just getting started in VBE 2008 porting a VB6 program and have created the MDI Parent form. I've added a form called frmNav and need to designate this and all subsequent forms as MDI child forms. Is there somewhere in each form's properties where I designate this? It used to be in VB6 there was a property called "MDIChild = True." input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!-- Session data--></input> <input id="jsProxy" onclick="jsCall();" type="hidden" />
View 1 RepliesI have a regular form that I have a SplitContainer on and I would like to launch an external program (not mine) in Panel2, maximize it to fill the whole panel, and hide it's toolbar if possible. The program I am launching is a monitoring program of network activity. To be even more detailed, it is a puTTy window that opens a telnet connection to a server. I need to launch this putty window in Panel2, and then maximize it so that it cannot be resized/dragged.

I'm from denmark and hope I can explain my question for you. This is just a example: I have a panel, let's say panel1 and another panel on that panel (panel2) and so on until for example panel5 - on panel5 I have a button (button1). Now I would like to change button1's backcolor property through code how do I then get access to button1, now it's a child-control on panel5 that is a child control on panel4 etc. ??
