Editing Registry With VB?
Oct 15, 2011I'm just familiarising myself to edit registry in VB. I am having a problem with changing a value in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE key. When ever I change a value at runtime it always assumes that I am going in the "Wow6432Node" key, even though I don't put that in the parenthesis. Example:
My.Computer.Registry.SetValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerAdvancedFolderHiddenSHOWALL", "CheckedValue", 1) and it doesn't change the value in the string above, but changes it as if I have put

Inheriting Windows Form And Editing The Properties - Customizing The Default Form
Jul 2, 2009So I was wondering if anyone has done their own Forms (inheriting windows form and editing the properties) and if so, what your finished result was.

View 1 RepliesUpdating Parent Form From Dataset After Editing In Child Form?
Aug 24, 2009I have two forms....Mainform is filled with controls that are databound to a datasource.....then I have a child form that is used to edit data from parent form.......the data that is displayed on the child form uses the Filter() method of the binding source to display data only for the customer selected......
The child form has the standard OK and CANCEL buttons set up as dialog result.......after I edit the content in child form, the changes are displayed on the child form correctly......but when closing the child form and going back to the parent form the changes dont appear there unless I restart the application.....I also tried adding the tableadapter.update/fill method in the 'OK' dialog result event handler and it still doesnt work......
How can I make the changes take effect on the parent form without restarting the application?

Editing A Form Through A Module?
Jul 14, 2009How can I edit my a form through a module? I am using this code in the module.
Here is where I get an error: Private Sub ExtendedWebBrowser_NewWindowExtended(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As WebBrowserNewWindowExtendedEventArgs) Handles Me.NewWindowExtended Button1.Text = "New window event just triggered!"End Sub
The code editor will not recognize when I type Form1, and I obtain the following error when I manually type it:form1' is not declared.I sense there is something I can do here which is very easy to fix this, but I have not worked much with Classes before.

Editing SQL Data - Form Not Updating Row In Database
Jul 29, 2011My form just isn't updating the row in the database: Here's my code:
Protected Sub btnSubmit_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSubmit.Click
If Request.QueryString("a") = "edit" Then
Dim CategoryText As String = lstCategory.SelectedItem.Text
Dim conn As New SqlConnection("Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS; Initial Catalog=LogansArchive; Integrated Security=True;")
[Code] .....
I've never used nested SELECTs in SQL before so I'm not sure if I did it right. Aside from that, this is all stuff I've done before so I'm relatively sure that it's all correct. Finally, there are no errors being reported when I debug, although the updates don't seem to be coming through from the text fields (txtContent.Text isn't changing to reflect the new value).

Allow User To Return To The Form And See Prior Input For Editing
Jun 28, 2010I would like to develop a structure to maintain my user's text input somehow on each form to allow user to return to the form and see the prior input for potential editing. My app has four forms which accept user input and form a string for output to printer. In the eventuality that the user notes a mistake in the input after leaving the app, I would like to develop a structure to "save" the user input at the form level and allow for repopulating the text boxes with the prior user input. Make sense? I have no idea how accomplish that functionality. Maybe it's too complex for my purposes. What do the pros think?
View 2 RepliesButton Registry Keys And Two Radio Buttons?
Nov 24, 2009I have run into a brick wall here with trying to figure this out what I have is a button that when clicked on opens up the windows control panel. and then options can be set and you then close the control panel.

I've tried various ways but I cannot get the radio buttons to check properly

Sep 5, 2009I have already done the creation of button and the dragging of button at runtime already.But now i need to know how do i save the last dragged button on the form and also detect the name of the last clicked button.so lets say i now drag a button to coordinates 25,254. so when i exit the form and the next time i launch it, the button will still be at 25,254. and this one will go on for the number of button i created like 100. so when i launch the form the 100 button will be at the exact position where i last saved them.the second part is lets say i created button1 and button2 on the form in runtime. so when i clicked the first button, it should display button1. and if i clicked on button 2, it should say button2. same goes for like 100buttons.
