Is this possible? I have tried a few different methods with no luck. I am more of a JAVA person, but am taking some classes for VB, and have been playing around. This is what I have tried:

I think I'm going about this the wrong way, but would like to know if anyone has achieved this. All I'm doing is printing a simple character map to 255 labels, each label containing a char. Not an assignment, just having fun.
I have attached the form in initial state. What you don't see in the initial state is 10 hidden labels. I want the loop(which I am calling as a function??) to compute the numbers and display in the labels. Example, if I input 1 for the first term, 3 for the second term and 4 for the total terms, the first 4 labels should become visible and have in them one solution each:
1 - 1
2 - 3
3 - 4
4 - 7
Am I way off with what I want to do? Cannot use arrays, must be a loop.This is the compute button:
Private Sub BtnComp_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnComp.Click

I have 100 text boxes on another form I have to populate. I don't want to use 100 Form3.txt1.Text = Mid(answer,1,1) as shown below, i would like to put them in a loop, like a For loop. But when I try I get Error1'txt' is not a member of 'WindowsApplication1.Form3'.Is there another way of doing this?

View 3 Replieshow to permanently save to text files then re-open all of the information again using SFD and OFD. Now my teacher has come back at me and said that i need to be able to save the information from multiple text boxes and have the text in certain labels to also be saved into the one text file (the labels need to be done because it is a database and these labels are like the fields and the right text box needs to match the right label)

I am writing an app to be a single button failover of a set of mirrored SQL servers. The app has to handle several other functions (enable/disable and start/stop of services, writing to local registry, copying files from server A to server B, initiating stored procedures, etc.)I have a collection of labels that indicate the status of 4 services on 2 servers, I wrote a function to check the services when passed the machine name, and the service name. Originally I just called the function 8 times (4 services, 2 machines) and populated the labels 'manually'. I have all of this within a timer so that the service status is refreshed every couple seconds. Id like to clean up the code to a single for/next loop that operates on 2 arrays (an array of service names, and an array of labels) such as:
'**Fetch_Status is the function that gets service status, it accepts 2 strings, machine name
'**and service name and returns status "running", "Stopped", as my_status
Dim Services() As String = {"Service1", "Service2", "Service3", etc.}
[code]....
The only reason I want the control array is to be able to use the .Text and .BackColor properties of the labels in the loop. If I make an array of strings with the label names it doesnt seem to pick that up.
I want to check 4 labels for text, if all four dont have a value, change text in a label to "please enter all four values" if 4 labels have values, remove all text from label.

I posted in the wrong forum the first time around, and I'm pretty sure that's why it never even appeared. Oh well. THIS is the right forum now, I hope, so here's my problem:
I'm basically simulating bowling. I've created a form that has a "scoreboard" on it, and I'm updating the cells of the scoreboard to display the bowl result. Without doing 21 if statements, I figured I could call a method, send it which roll number it is, and then use a for loop to update each label's text values.[code]...
I want to replace the text of my buttons using a loop and I dont know if it is even possible. So here is how it works I have multiple buttons with blank values in them. I also have a database that has a table in it. Now when my form loads i want the buttons to have a new value in them which will come from my table. And I want to do this process using a loop like the code below

I created a program that has serval labels on a form and a listview object. It has a button that when clicked reads a textfile and loads up values in the listview object. I then can click and drag text from the listview box to any label on the form and then the program removes the value from the listview box. Now, my question is how can I instruct VB to save these values in the text property of the labels so that the next time the program is loaded the labels will contain the values loaded during the last run time session?

I am making my first windows forms application in VS2010 and I am having trouble with arrays. I have code that dim's an array 'TabSiteInfo(2,20)' as a string. Then, I have a Loop that adds records to the array. The problem is that my array is not filling values from the loop. I know VS2010 handles arrays differently, but I have this same code working fine for me in VS2008 ASP.NET application. Below is a sample of the code.

I'm trying to have a for each loop in which 5 labels should be created.Each time the loop restarts the 5 labels should appear in a tabpage.The problem is, it only makes a label once, then it keeps on mving the label to a different tab instead of creating a new one for each tab.
It loops 5 times, thus filling 5 labels.Then the next 5 labels should get filled in a new tab.But it just moves the original labels. How do I force it to create a new label each time?

I have a form that uses 28 checkboxes (checkBox1 ~ checkBox28), 28 labels (label1 ~ label28), and 28 textboxes (textBox1 ~ textBox28). These items need to be visible/invisible depending on the mode of the program (there are 5 modes). I could specify each item individually with visibility, but that requires a whole lotta code! Is there a way I can loop through 28 labels?

View 5 RepliesWhat I am trying to do is create a conosle app in vb.net 2008. I have a XML file (data_file.xml), and a template file (template.txt). The template file contains a few sentences, each one containing a placeholder which needs to be filled. I need to create multiple output files (.txt), which contains the contents of the template file, with the placeholders filled with the values of the placeholders in the XMl file.
The XML file is at the moment:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
- <CATALOG>
- <group>
<placeholder1>Nigel</placeholder1>

As it stands, I can create one template file, containing the filled template contents using only the first group of placeholders. I am nearly there, just trying to finish the last piece of the jigsaw.
I want to be able to reveal and then populate a certain number of labels. The inefficient way would be to SELECT CASE on the number of labels required and then populate these in turn. I am looking for something like this:
For i = 1 to RequiredNumOfLabels
Label & i.visible = true
Label & i.text = DataTable.Rows(i).Item(2)[code]......
is the problem as after the line is executed, lbl still equals nothing.The reasoning behind it is that I was trying to create an invoice generator in vb.net and I was hoping that this would be a simple way to do it - count the amount of items in the order, populate the labels with the names of the items, reveal that many labels.

It allows a user to click a button which will then cause a label to be created on the form with w.e was in 'txtdescription' (A textbox that the user can type into)
The PROBLEM with this is if you change the text and/or click button1 again, it will technically create a new label in that spot.
What should I do to make it so each time button1 is clicked, the label that is generated will appear below each other.

View 3 RepliesI wanted to make a flow chart with more than 50 labels (see this link for just a small portion of the flow chart [URL]). I looked all around but couldn't find one in VB 2008 with the same problem. but anyway, my questions are:
1. Is there a way to set the color of all the labels instead of just one by one say:
Label1.BackColor = Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Control)
Label2.BackColor = Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Control)
Label3.BackColor = Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Control)
...
...
...
There should be a way to loop through them
2. Is there a way for search through the Labels and find for example Label14? or a label with tagindex of 14? I rather be able to find label 14 but the tag also works.
3. Is there a better way to represent flow charts and stuffs like that in VB 2008?
