View 3 RepliesHow To Properly Open A Image Using Bitmap Class And Dispose It Properly

Things i already tried: use dispose method of bitmap <= doesnt work (need to write implementation)

View 3 Replies.net - Form.Load Event Not Firing, Form Showing?
Nov 9, 2010I fear that there is something obviously wrong with my code, but I have come across a situation where the Form.Load event is not firing when I create and show my form. The form is not subclassed (as I've seen some problems with that in some searches), and I am not getting any errors thrown when I step through the code in the debugger.
I have a break point set on the IDE-created form load function (which does have the Handles MyBase.Load signature suffix) but the breakpoint is never reached and the form does display and work.The form is passed three arguments in the constructor but the IntializeComponent() function is called before anything else is done.

Cannot Get Comboboxes Working Properly Within A Child Form?
Jun 20, 2012I have spent a long time trying to find a solution for the problem I am having with comboboxes within a child form. I'm sure this must be a Microsoft error and not something I'm doing wrong..The best way to explain the problem would be to tell you what I have done so far:
If you open a new Project in VB and add two Windows Forms. Form1 will be the parent. Form2 will be the child.On Form1 add 1 x panel(Form2 will open up within the panel so make sure the panel is big enough to fit Form2) and 1 x button. The only code needed for this form is:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
[Code]...
Now run the program and click button1 to open form2 (form2 should now open within panel1).
The comboboxes and textboxes lose some of there functions for example:
1. You cant set focus on combobox without hitting drop-down
2. You cant highlight text properly in either the combobox or textbox.
3. You cant set the cursor index position using your mouse in the combobox or text box.
Does anyone know a way around this?? Mainly for the combobox as I've got some functions working for the textbox.
Properly Close A Form While Multi-threading
Jan 4, 2012I thought Me.Close() works, but hey I'm a noob at this. Right now I'm using:
Form2.Show()
Me.Dispose()
Me.Close()
but now that I've published it, I have to pull up my task manager and do end process to actually close the app. This wasn't a problem until my office started using a public drive and everybody was using the program at once. An error popped up saying that the connection string wasn't initialized, but it worked on the computer that opened the app first. Maybe the real issue isn't properly closing the form, but that is annoying that I have to use my task manager to close my app.
Properly Deleting Items From A Windows Form?

Showing Login Form Before Main Form
Aug 18, 2009I'm sure I'm doing my login process for my app in a not so perfect way, but as with lots of things, it works. The issue is to make it work I have to use the very unpopular DoEvents thing. I would like my application to show a login screen before loading my main form. Currently I have a login dialog box with a FormOpen boolean property and an authenticated boolean property. If a user logs in successfully, I hide the login form, set formopen to false, and authenticated to true. If they cancel out, then I do the same and just set the authenticated property to false. If authenticated=false then I end the app, else I show the main form via application.run(MainForm)

Under the same circumstances if the Button is set to visiblbe = true the form does open properly or if the line of code at a certain place where it is set to either visible = true or visible = false is commented out or not there then the form opens properly. If any one of the 5 phases on my form are turned on then the problem doesn't ever occur but if none of the phases are on then the problem does occur. I just found a fix for the situation but I still am not clear about what exactly is going on.
