this maybe an easy one for mos of you! I have a windows that is displayed as full screenThe window contains a series of images (movie posters) and the name below it. When you user clicks on a movie poster a new window appears (smaller window) in the middle of the screen.I want to force the user to close close on the small window before procedding. Currently if the user clicks outside the small window the full screen window comes to the front thus hiding the smaller window.
I am trying to prevent the User from proceeding if a specific text box is empty. All of the following lines of code SEEM TO work:
If txtTitle.text = "" Then..... If txtTitle.Text = Nothing Then..... If txtTitle.text = Nothing Then..... (followed by a message box advising of the need for input)
The problem is, if the User enters a space (either accidentally or intentionally) all three of the above recognize the space as a valid entry.
I have Example and i need to kill the session when user close his browser window. i tried page_unload() not working. the example is:i have parent windows and window will open from it i need to delete session when user close the child window.
I know how to add an exit button with a prompt. However, I do not have the slightest cluse as to how I can add this same functionality to the window so that if the user clicks the X in the upper right corner, there is a prompt message confirming the user needs to exit.I added a form closing event but getting wrong results, the form closes if I click no and message window does not leave when I click yes to stay.
Code:
Private Sub frmTest_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing If (MessageBox.Show("Are you sure you want to exit?", "Close Form", _ MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Question) = _
I'd like to show a NotifyIcon BalloonTip to the user and close it after two seconds.No matter what value I enter there it never closes, unless I keep moving the mouse and then it always closes after exactly 10 seconds. After doing a Google search I found this page.Here are two quotes from that page.
Quote:
The BallonTip timeout is only respected if the shell detects the "user presence" (i.e. mouse moves or keyboard input). If none of these happen (because you are watching the bubble) it will sit there indefinately. The logic behind this design being that users should not miss notifications when they are away from their machines. This is the "By Design" shell behavior.
Minimum and maximum timeout values are enforced by the operating system and are typically 10 and 30 seconds, respectively, however this can vary depending on the operating system. If you declare timeout value as less than minimum, the real timeout will be minimum; while the value more than maximum will be changed into maximum value. So timeout values that are too large or too small are adjusted to the appropriate minimum or maximum value.is there any way to force it to close after two seconds? My BalloonTips are shown based on the action of the user and not during some background process, so 10 seconds is way too long.
I'm using the jQuery UI accordion with two divs. The first displays a form and the second shows data based on the input of the form. How do I auto close the first div and display the second when a user clicks the submit button in the form? I'm assuming I need to use 'onclick' in the button, but I'm not sure how to tie it in with the accordion.
I have a backup script i made in VB. part of the code im having trouble with:
HTML
code:
Now this code is executed when a button is clicked, if the folder does exists, it displays a message and continues the backup. however if it does not it displays displays "does not exist box" then i want the application to close.
I played around with the application.exit commands but it seems like the code just skips over it, and continues to try and backup the data, then errors out. how do i make the application close, if the dir does not exist?
Excuse me for posting this, but I have searched both Google along with this forum before asking this question, maybe I'm not using the right keywords but I apologize if it's easy to find.I would like to know how one could close a third-party window (application) if a specified string was found in the window title.
I have a webbrowser control built into a windows form of my application and I was curious if there was a way that any links that are clicked on in the webbrowser control will be forced to open in a new browser window?
I have set up a notify icon for my form. I want to make it so that when the user clicks the close button that it doesn't close the form it just takes it to shows the notify icon. They can exit the program from the notify icon. Can someone tell me how to keep it running?
Here's the scenario, winforms application, monitoring via Task Manager Processes Tab.On initial launch spins up to ~61,000K (initial data grid and data loads)If I minimize the application, not touching or doing anything the Mem usage drops to 1,380K.When I restore the application is spins back up to only 5.8K
So my question is, does the minimize send some internal message to clean up resources since the application in question is not in focus?The first app I noticed this in happens to be VB.NET, but I've observed the same behavior in my main C# winform applications.
I am writing a VB program in VB 2008 express edition, and I need to make a simple web browser used by touch screen users. I have done making the simple web browser to browser the webpage, but when I open some links they are opened in the external IE rather than the VB web browser, how can I force all web page to be opened in the VB software?
How to catch the event of the window close button(red X button on window right top corner) in wpf form ? We have got the closing event, window unloaded event also, but we want to show a pop up if he clicks the close button of the wpf form.
I'm programming a Minesweeper clone in Visual Studio 2010, with VB.NET, as a Windows Form Application, and I'm having trouble with the Game Won and Game Lost forms. When I show those forms, I want the game form to still be visible, so that the player can see where the mines were, but I don't want the game form to be enabled until the Game Won or Game Lost form is closed. Exactly like Windows Minesweeper does when you win or lose.
creating code to force user at runtime to place values in textboxes. This is what I have so far. I want to be able to force the user to have to place a value in the empty textbox and change the backcolor of the textbox back to default color after a value is placed.
HTML Public Sub Subjectvalues() Dim SubjectValues As TextBox() = {Me.subj_ba_txt, Me.subj_bed_txt, Me.subj_dom_txt, Me.subj_gla_txt, Me.subj_levels_txt, Me.subj_lotsize_txt, Me.subj_lp_txt, Me.subj_orglp_txt} Dim tb As TextBox
I've tried searching and haven't found much useful information on this, I know it has to be possible, but I'm not sure how. I've got an application that bi-directionally syncs with an SQL express 2008 server. right now, I've got a hardcoded sa user in my conection string, however one feature that was asked for was to audit every change made by end users into the database. To implement this, I've created a user login and password for each user that is going to use my app (8 of them) on my sql server, however I now need to change the connection string to include each users name in the string. This is what I've got setup so far:
I'm attempting to learn VB in college. My first project is to create a program in Small Basic and then write it in Visual Basic. I'm looking for the equivalent of TextWindow.ReadNumber() from Small Basic in Visual Basic. I want to force the user to input a number not letters. I'm writing this program for the Console. Is this possible? During my testing I entered a word instead of numbers and the program crashed.
I'd like to force a user to make a selection from a combobox.I've tried to test it by Combobox.SelectedText = String.empty as well as another version similar to this but a little different.When I test it, it will tell me that it is still unselected/blank even when I selected something.
I am trying to find the handle of the child window for the Yes button in the User Account Control window so i can click it. This window has a structure with a few child windows with the same name.
Dim hwnd As IntPtr = FindWindow(Nothing, "User Account Control") Dim hwnd2 As IntPtr = FindWindowEx(hwnd, 0, "DirectUIHWND", vbNullString) Dim hwnd3 As IntPtr = FindWindowEx(hwnd2, 0, "CtrlNotifySink", vbNullString) Dim hwnd4 As IntPtr = FindWindowEx(hwnd3, 0, "Button", "&Yes")
There are multiple CtrNotifySink with its own Button child window or other child windows. How do i search thru the different CtrNotifySink window to find the one that contain the Yes button so i can send a click to it? I do need to find it before i can send a click, right? because i try just sending it to the main window with sendmessage and nothing happen.I even try sending it directly to the handle found by spy++ of the yes button with bm click but nothing happen?
I would like to try and implement a feature wherby once you have logged into an application (straightforward winforms application) and had your credetials verified the application would then force you to log on again if no activity had been detected in the application for a certain number of minutes. In essence I want to provide some extra security for those occasions when users get up and wander away from their machines for prolonged periods.
I have all the logic for logging into the application, it's just the checking for no activity over a given period and then forcing the user to log back in again that I'm not having much luck with.
I have a text box labled QTY, which feeds the QTY column on a datatable. the table then is ran through a function that takes the data and converts it to a string which my production machine can read. My problem is this, and its probably really simple (these problems usually are) how to i force the user to use a specific type of input on the txtbox so they would have to put the QTY in the format of 01 02 03 etc etc, i have it set to default to 00 but i want to force the user to haver to input 2 chars.
I want to create a simple form with 2 buttons, one to end the program and one to log the user off, I have done this successfully and have everything looking and working as it should. However, I want to force the user to pick one of these buttons before using the machine, my idea was to trap the mouse in the form so the only thing the user can do is select a button. My question is how can I do this?
I am working on a small program which will check a web server if an update exists for a program. I am having it display to the user if it has a confirmed connection to the web (by pinging the website), and let them know if there are any updates available...
When it pings the web server, if the ping returns true, I'd like it to output "Confirmed Connection" before continuing executing the program. Is there a way I could do this..? I've tried numerous different things so far but it loads everything and displays everything all at once...I included a printscreen of what I'm trying to do.. I also pasted my code in. Ignore my sloppy name defining for the textboxes and such. I just made this up as a test until I get this figured out..

HTML Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
I have to select checkboxes besed on group column values. If you see below gridview, column 3 (GroupNo) has 1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2....etc (this column data is not static, will change based on page index. i.e PageIndex =2 may starts with 7,7,7,8,8,8,8,8,9,9,9 etc).In every sectio/Group User must and should select minimun 2 check boxes. so If user select only one check box we need to show a pop up message as " Please select One more check box in that particular section" If User skips the message and move to next section we have to show the same message. We have to force the user to select more than one checkbox in the same section. Mainly our intention is the check boxes whatever user selected in each section/Group belongs to one Category.
