I would like to generate some custom dialog boxes that I can call from anywhere in my project.
The easiest example I can give is of a form that waits for two numbers to be entered then returns their sum. I want to call it like a function ie. sum = add_two_numbers( " Enter the numbers you want to add then click add)This is not what I actually want to do, that is far more complex, this just a simple way to explain what I want to do. If I can do this I can do what I really want.
Essentially I want forms that will accept some input, process it and return a string. A bit like an input inputbox, an openfiledialog box or a fontdialog box. I also need to pass strings to it.I can do it if I use a function declared in a module which calls the form and then returns the value once it is calculated but isn't there a simpler more elegant method?
This save file dialogue works fine except when they click save, the dialogue opens and then they close the dialogue. when they close it, my program crashes, every time. i'm using this to save it
Dim sfd As New SaveFileDialog With sfd .Filter = "Text Documents (*.txt)|*.txt|PHP (*php.*)|*php.*"
how to suppress the dialogue of "Choose a digital certificate" in VB .NET when opening a HTTPS using Webbrowser control?I am writing a program to authenticate on some Firewalls via HTTPS links opened in a webbrowser on VB.NET form.Every time, that window pops up showing an empty list, asking for OK or Cancel, pressing any button on the dialogue, closes the it and continuing by authentication.Is there a way to automate accepting/closing/suppressing such a dialogue in VB.NET?

i am trying to get the salaries of different employees using a dialogue box.As shown in the code below, I grab the salary from the dialogue box and pass it to a method (GetReading) in the Employee class. I would like the method to return true if the current salary entered is greater than the previous salary entered. If false, to display the dialogue box again for a valid salary to be entered.
Dim salaryReading As Integer uiReadingsDialogue.ShowDialog() salaryReading = CInt(uiReadingsDialogue.uiSalaryReadingTextBox.Text)
[code]....
But I can't get the dialogue to pop back up in order to enter the valid reading.
I need to work with custom controls, I want to be able to set the properties of my controls so when I put them on my windows forms they will show up in the properties window thing.
I have been working on a notepad program, and have recently been trying to check if a file is open, and if it is, save directly, not always using dialogues.Every time I try to save it though, it tells me that the files is being used by another process (my program I'm guessing)Here is my code:
Private Sub SaveToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles SaveToolStripMenuItem.Click If rtfopen = True Then
I'm pretty sure i'm not doing this right but i hope by asking this someone can show me the right path.I've created a function that creates a label and 7 checkboxes arrays . So depending how many names i get from my database, it creates that many for the label and the other checkboxes.
Now my function is inside a module which i call in my Class Form during "Load".
So what i want to do is be able to code in an event where the user checks on one of these
Is it possible to make custom buttons for the forms? I know i can add imaging to the button controls, but if is it possible to really customize the buttons so they look different, like designs instead of blocks?
IM not looking for clink once. Do to its not customizable. What im looking for is something like App Life but that allows custom forms to be used. Or even a tutorial on how to run an update the program. Such as a patch if you will. Does any one know a free program that allows this?
I would like to open a new form from some other form, and pass some selected object from a control on that form to the new form. The sensible way to do this, I thought, was as a parameter to the forms constructor. Now I know that the visual studio GUI creates partial classes for my forms, that hold the properties that I can drag onto there in the designer. I assume it also holds a default constructor. Since it might do all sorts of stuff that is needed to initialise the form, I figured I should call it from my custom constructor ala
public sub new(byval my_parameter as Foo) Me.new() Me.my_parameter = my_parameter
[code].....
That clearly wasn't it, because it can't find a default constructor. The thing is, visual studio goes trough great lengths to prevent me from seeing the generated constructor, so I know how to access it. This leads me to believe that I am actually doing it wrong, and should have set out on some different path, as the path you are forced in to usually is the sensible thing to do, which I usualy find out way too late.
I need to login into a secure site and download a zip file.I am using vbscript code and able to login into the target link. But after I log in file download dialogue box appears on the screen asking for open, save or cancel options.Is there a way, some internet settings or any kind of code, to disable this dialogue box.I want to automate the whole process from logging in till file is downloaded. I tried adding the site in trustedlist, disable download prompt in security but nothing worked.
I am using the Folder Browser Dialogue to allow the EU to select a folder for HTML output. The dialogue always shows in the middle of the screen. Is it possible to set where the dialogue appears?It currently overlaps an image which is expoted to HTML, however when this image is exported, it captures part of the folder dialogue box. The image export routine is 3rd party and uses layers so I can not change the export function.Or is it possible to check the dialogue has closed prior to me performing the image export?
I have an annoying issue whereby a MessageBox is being displayed behind my splash screen. As the MessageBox is waiting for acknowledgement (that there is a validation issue, and thus leading to termination), the program gives the appearance of having hung on the splash screen.[code]...
I have to design a custom "log grid" control to use in another of my projects.Up front, I am new to vb.net 2008. I have used VB6 for years and I am trying to learn how to resove the differences as I go. But I need help.
This log grid contains 96 columns and 4 rows.I tried using the TableLayoutPanel and a Panel per cell but found the control to slow to paint. That's 384 discreet controls.I am now trying a usercontrol with a panel and GDI+ to create the grid. I've created a collection for the columns and a collection for the rows. So far so good. My mouse clicks raise the correct events per cell.
I now need to indicate which column the mouse is over. This is the problem. The column must be highlighted by a vertical bar from the top of the column to the bottom. It must also be transparent. I need to see the gridlines under the highlight. I've tried using region using the following code. (myRegion is declared Private MyRegion as Region at module level for persistance)
I am writing a program that will search the hard drive for particular files. Once it's done, I'd like the results to display like a folder. For example: If I looked for log files in c: and c:Windows, I would want to put those files in a 'virtual directory' and be able to manipulate them -- as you would in Windows Explorer.
The only thing I can think of that is similar is the search companion, but this software must be compatible with Windows 7.
I know it is possible to display a real folder (i.e. c:windows) in the webbrowser control, but can you have your own virtual directory and only view files that you want in it?

I in my project i have two text box and 1 button and 1 openfile dialogue Event on Command Button in textbox1 i want a file directory with the file name & extension, which i have done well (like C:\files\readme.txt) but in textbox2 i want only the directory of the same file, means under which directory it stored (like C:\files\)
Here's my example code
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

I am working on a football simulation. I'm writing the code when a quarter or half ends. If any of you ever played Madden Football you know that when the time reaches zero the play calling screen disappears. This is exactly what I am trying to do. The play calling screen in my case is a dialog controlled by the main game screen (the main form controlling most of the game). I use the .ShowDialog event to display it. What I want to do is close this dialog on a tick event.
I'm not sure how to access this dialog if it was created as a local variable. I assume it's like finding any other control that was dynamically generated at run-time but I can't wrap my head around the proper syntax. Once I get the dialog in the tick event I want the dialog to close and return all control to the main game screen. I've never tried to close a dialog without the user clicking a button on the dialog itself. This is different because the parent control is closing the dialog with its own event (Tick).
What actually is required to consider something installed on a machine. What happens in the background? I know VB offers an installer but Im trying to build my own from scratch. What do I need to do to accomplish this?
