I am trying to allow the user to enter data in any foreign language, (Cyrillic, Arabic,etc.) by entering the data into a textbox.Unfortunatly when I change the language of the test machine it still fills in the US standard ASCII characters instead.
View 4 RepliesHow can I translate foreign languages Bold and Italic to find the correct font file name ?I have "Arial Bold" for example, but in the registry, the name appears as "Arial Negrito" for portuguese or "Arial Fett" for german, etc... is there a generic way of finding the correct font file name if I have only the english name of the font and the currecnt language is not english
View 1 RepliesIt looks like the next version of our application is going to have to be multilingual. People may be using it in Israel, Singapore, Japan, and who knows what other places. Consequently we'll have to change our text in labels, on message boxes, etc. to match the language where the app is installed.I know, or at least I think, that there are features built into the .net framework that can assist with this, but where is a good place to look for documentation or guidance as to what to use and what sort of design considerations to address?
View 2 RepliesI'm learning delegates in VB.NET and am confused about delegate types. In reading about delegates, I learned that delegates are a data type that can refer to a method with a particular kind of signature. So in the same way that a String can refer to characters, a delegate can refer to a method (for instance) that takes an integer as input and returns an integer as output. But in playing around with delegates, I found that this was not the case. The code below compiles and runs--even though I don't obey the 'typing' in my delegate signature. I'm confused. Am I missing something?
Public Delegate Function myDelegate(ByVal i As Integer) As Integer' int in, rtrn int Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim md As myDelegate 'should be of type int in, rtrn int md = New myDelegate(AddressOf squared) 'allows assign to string in, string out

visual basic.net is case insensitive so it allows the coder to write without caring or remembering the casing of variables. it also relieves from the 'undeclared variable' errors if you use the variable in another case than the one used in declaration. The fact that its line termination is a line feed makes it even more readable unlike C# or c++ that need good care in the casing and contineous war with following up with the {}, matching them and figuring out which is for which.my question is what are the advantages of c# over vb knowing that both get compiled to MSIL so there is almost no performance difference between the two languages?

I created a DataSet using the DataSources wizard. I can display the rows of each Datatable one at a time. But in this case, I needed to add a new DataTable (newDT) using the Add New Table Adapter control(?) on the toolbox. newTable is derived by JOINing three different existing tables (or, dataTable) in my DataSet designer. The query works fine and returns all the data as expected. Trouble, if I try to display the rows of the newDT on textboxes, I get a NULLREFERENCE Exception.

I would like the autocomplete list of a textbox to be the words that the user has previously typed and saved. For example if they enter "dog", "cat" and "fish" I want the autocomplete suggests to show these three options. So far my Code only shows the last user input. I expect there is an easy solution as I am new to all this, but I can't seem to find it on my own.

I have Visual Basics 2008 express and I tried to make a autotyper, so this is my
Button1: Timer1.Start
Timer1: Timer2.Start
Timer2: SendKeys.Send(Textbox.text)
Button2: Timer2.Stop
So it was my first try ever with VB and it kind of worked... Only 2 problems;
1. Button 2 doesn't really work, I have to click it really many times, then go to a different window, then click it really many times again, in the meantime it keeps on spamming
2. How do I make my autotyper press enter every single time after the textbox message was typed?
I have a tab control application, each tab loads a particular user control and each of those user controls will then add other user controls that are used amongst other the user controls. For example, I have an "ucQuotes" page and an "ucInventory" page, when the specific tab is selected, the "uc****" user control is loaded on that page, and in the case of "ucQuotes" and "ucInventory" they both use a control called "ucPartNumber"; a user control consisting of a combobox, textbox, and button. I have no issues reusing the shared user controls, in this case. My problem arises with my "ucQuickPrice" control, as it is always present at the bottom of the tab control form (separate from the tabcontrol, but on the same form), and it too uses ucPartnumber.
Here's my issue, as I type into the ucPartnumber combobox, the text I type does not appear in the combobox, it appears in the textbox of the ucPartnumber control that is being used on the tabcontrol page. There are no shared instances of ucPartNumber, nor do I have this issue between typing on one tab page and the text showing on the user control of another tab page.I tried just creating the ucPartNumber controls on the ucQuickPrice control, not adding a new instance of ucPartnumber on the .Load event, and the issue persists.
The combobox(s) in question are bound programmatically with about 40,000 items, ".datasource = dataset.tablename" not to a bindingsource. Autocomplete is set to none, I added code to utilize tool tips and the basic combobox filtering functionality. Is this a bug, or is there something I'm neglecting? I'm about 95% complete with this application, and this just happened today. I made the decision, to just reuse the ucPartNumber control on the ucQuickPrice control (originallly it's size and orientation would not fit, but I added some coding to detect what parent is adding ucPartNumber and to change its appearance accordingly). Before, I made this change, I did not have this problem. And, in trying to go back to how I had things set up before the change, the problem will not go away. if the whole control within a control verbage I used is a bit confusing, let me know and I'll try to better explain what is happening. At this point, I'm going to close and reopen vbexpress, as when I started this ordeal, vb started acting weird and wanted me to save all my work, it usually does this before locking up.

I'm trying to create a table which has one (or none) record per assignment.
The general problem is that I can't get the foreign key in one of my child tables to populate the primary key from the parent table. I have a parent table named "ISSUES" and a child table named "ISSDESC". The primary key for ISSUES is ISS_ID which is an autonumber. The foreign key is ISS_ID in the ISSDESC table which is just a number. I'm using MS Access and an OLEDBConnection as the method. I've created the relationship in MS Access and also created the datarelation in the VB.NET code.

What I would like to do is be able to populate the foreign key once once the user uploads data into the child table with the user ID it has.
So far I have created the associated foreign key with ID field in the user table and also programmly through data-relation related the table but now sure on how to get the value from the relation.
The foreign key in the child table is called 'U_ID' as shown in the snipet velow.

SpanishTitle nvarchar(200)

However, I've found this really time consuming (especially if the client later asks for another language option as a second phase).
What is the best practice for doing something like this, allowing scope for extra languages?
