I have 7 Windows forms.The order of the forms is defined within a configuration file.I want to place buttons on each form that will show the next available options.The Next button will move the next form in the list.The Back button will move to the previous form in the list. The Finish button will execute the final piece of code.The Cancel button will exit the application.If the user is on the first form, then there is no Back button.If the user is on the last form, then there is no Next button, but there is a Finish button.
Example 1:
Form1 - Next, Cancel
Form3 - Next, Back, Cancel[code]....

My VB application is behaving strangley. I have form with fairly large number of controls. I am using case against radio buttons. after curtain number of buttons, it stops responding to more radio buttons.
Then I tried to split controls in to 2 form but now my form.showdialog() too now working properly. It takes new from names but show the old form when running.
I have a piece of software with two tabs, inside each tab there are buttons (the user can add the buttons when they want). when tab1 is full tab2 should start to fill. I currently know how many buttons fit on the screen so I just say something like if buttons > 150 then start to populate tab 2 The problem i have now though is if the resolution is changed then a different amount of buttons can be displayed. so if I put my screen to 1280x720 some buttons are left of. I was thinking of detecting the resolution and then using different cases for different resolutions but this seems very inefficient im wondering if there is a different way?
View 5 RepliesIs there a better way to make a form with multiple buttons opening different things than having a form that has lots group boxes for each tab. So in the begining each box will be invisible and when you click the button the corresponding group box will become visible. Is there any other way?It will be like a background image and it'll have buttons that will mask it with invisible buttons. when the button is clicked it will open the corresponding group box.

How can i put new buttons like these to windows form
View 1 Repliesi'm still working on making my button project and I've came across a new problem.
I want to create buttons based off the amount of lines in a text file which will be easy if I can get this to work. This is my test code before I implement it into the real program:
[Code]...
One of our users cannot see two buttons on a form, that everybody else can see. I'm not sure if the buttons are not there or the window is smaller than it should be. The size of this window is fixed, so it cannot be adjusted manually. (it is like a pop-up window infront of the main window). Our application is used by employees of our company all over the world. So they all have windows xp in different languages and their regional settings differ. But I can't see how that would make a difference.

View 1 RepliesWhen I change the BackColor for a Form, and then add new buttons, they have by default the same BackColor as the Form itself. That does not show on my Windows 7 development computer, but when I use the program on an XP machine, all buttons appear the same color as the form.
I correct this by changing the button's BackColor property to ButtonFace, but it is a pain to do it all the time and some times it gets past me and a wrong color button goes into the application.
Is there a way to change how this works so all buttons are placed with ButtonFace BackColor by default?

I want to put two different groups of radio buttons on my form. How do I specify which button is in which group? I don't know which propert to change.At the moment VB assumes that they are all part of the same group.
I am using Visual Basic 2005 Express. I have previously worked with VB in MS Access, where you can put a frame around groups of radio buttons, but I can't find any such control in 2005 express.

I'm trying to create a piece of code that will recursively get all the buttons on a form.The problem that can occur with this is having a panel as then you have to go through all the controls in the panel as well.The code I have at the moment is

The problem I am having is that while this works for forms and SplitContainer, it doesn't work on panels or TabControl.
I have a lot of buttons on a form (144) that need to be removed. All their names begin with "R". So I used this piece of code.

However whenever I run this sub function, it deletes every other button starting with "R". better code or point out if the flaw is in that piece of code or it is hidden somewhere else in my program?

View 1 Replies[URL]. Attached is a MEF WPF and WinForms project that I have been playing around with. I was able to add two 'plug-in' buttons to the form but how do I provide functionality to the buttons? How can I add objects from a separate assembly, like most plug-ins do? Let's say I want to break out each menu (File, Edit, View, Tools) into their own assemblies, leaving the main application window as a blank form that will import each assembly on startup. Also, could functionality from the Edit menu assembly interact with the code from the File menu assembly? I have also not created custom user controls before so as you can see I am having trouble creating a plug-in menu structure.
