Forms :: DateTimePicker Seems Slow To Catch Up?
Jun 29, 2009
The DateTimePicker seems to be behaving irrationally. I have a normal form in VB2005. The datetimepicker value is set on entry to 01 March 2009. I set the value to 01 January 2009 by typing 1 in the 'March' area. I then use a keyboard shortcut to click a command button, eg. Alt-I. I noticed the DateTimePicker was late to update as the command button sequence started at 1 March 2009, not 1 January 2009. So I inserted the following line of HTML

I populate a hash table with the name of a control as the key and the control itself as the value using the following code that loops through my code on start-up:
Private Sub Populate_Hash_Table()
For Each ctrl As Control In Me.Controls
For Each member As Control In ctrl.Controls
[Code]....
This method works effectively, but the only problem is I seem to get a preformance hit as it takes a second to set the current control to false and the new one's visibility to true. What way should I modify my code so that it works more efficiently?

The following snip of simple code runs pretty slow on my computer, and I suspect that it is due to excessive memory usage, since the program reports using >1GB mem according to TaskManager. Am I using the DataGridView in a wrong way? Instructions: Make a windowsforms application and put 2x button and 1xDataGridView on it. Push button1 and then button2 - sort the data in the DataGridView by a different col and push button2 again. It'll go above 1GB mem usage! Basically I need to display a lot of data to a user and allow the user to sort the data and generate something from them.
Public Class Form1
Public dt As DataTable
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
dt = New DataTable

i'm utilising a couple of controls to kick off a process within my form - in short i have a DateTimePicker, Timer, CheckBox. The user enters the time they wish the process to run in the DateTimePicker (which has its format set to Time), ticks the CheckBox, which kicks off the Timer with an interval of 900ms. The Timer_Tick event checks if the DateTimePicker.Value is now and if so, does something. My problem is that either the DateTimePicker.Value never equals now or that the Timer_Tick event is never actually called.
I welcome any input into better ways of accomplishing this, i am conscious that polling for the time every second is a drain of resources but the only alternative i can see is a service which is overkill

One more question also is datetimepick, can it disable when I click to it (by default it will pump out the calender to choose once). Cause I only need to utilize the time but date is no.

Is there a way to tab between the hours and minutes values when the format is set to time in the DateTime Picker? The default action is move to the next control. I have the ShowUpDown set to true. Do I have to set up separate controls, one for the hours and one for the minutes to get this functionality?

I have a list box on my form with 2 value - "2010" & "2011". When I change the value in the listbox it should set the minimum and maximum value of 2 datetimepickers. Each time I try to change the value I get an error - for example if I change the listbox from 2011 to 2010 I get the error:
"Value of '31/03/2011 00:00:00' is not valid for 'MaxDate'. 'MaxDate' must be greater than or equal to MinDate. Parameter name: MaxDate"
If ListBox1.SelectedIndex = "0" Then
DateTimePicker1.MaxDate = #3/31/2011#
DateTimePicker1.MinDate = #4/1/2010#
DateTimePicker2.MaxDate = #3/31/2011#
DateTimePicker2.MinDate = #4/1/2010#
End If
If ListBox1.SelectedIndex = "1" Then
DateTimePicker1.MaxDate = #3/31/2012#
DateTimePicker1.MinDate = #4/1/2011#
DateTimePicker2.MaxDate = #3/31/2012#
DateTimePicker2.MinDate = #4/1/2011#
End If

I have a program in VB.Net that receives mails from Outlook, extracts attachments and inserts the attachments into a table through a query. I would like to put the query/queries in a Try/Catch block, but cannot do so as Outlook exceptions cannot be caught, and it gives me an error, and unless I put a very specific exception, I cannot catch it. Is there a workaround?
Edit:
Try
Catch ex As Exception
End Try
Exception is underlined and when I hover on it, it says: "Catch cannot catch type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Exception' because it is not in 'System.Exception' or a class that inherits from 'System.Exception'". This is affecting all my other code which I'd like to put into a Try/Catch block.

I need to catch log4net exceptions (its own exceptions not app exceptions logged by it). I wish there's a way of doing it this way: [code] I have this code implemented and there's no errors in compilation but i force log4net to have an error (pointing to a non existing database in the config file) and nothing is threw.I've tried the listener aproach: [code] and it's writing the errors to log4net.txt, the forced ones i mean.This last aproach has a couple of drawbacks: it won't append every error to the file, if the error is the same it doesn't write it, i can't get the listener to write every error to that file, only one (I don't know how to fully configure the trace listener, it might be that). Thus it won't append the date and hour to every line wich is a necesity for me. Finally i can't give structure to it (xml). Even if the listener work i need to use the try/catch aproach, since i'm using ExceptionHandling from Enterprise library to log the errors in my app.

I am using VB.NET 2005 to create a Windows forms application. I have a procedure named SendMail that creates an instance of Outlook.Application, to send an email from my application. I found the code on this forum, I think.The procedure works fine, but I can't use error handling with it.I call the procedure from a button click event. I put the procedure call in a try/catch block, and the application won't build, with the following error.

I have a project converted from Visual Studio 2005 to Visual Studio 2010. It compiles and runs.
When I prune "unused references's from this project as listed by Visual Studio, the project fails to compile with the subject error message.
In particular one of the "unused refererences" is to "Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll". The IDE does not allow me to add back this particular reference.
What do I need to add back as a referenceto get this items?

A few weeks back in reply to a thread, I said then that it's sometimes worse to use a Try/Catch when there's nothing in the Catch!There are exceptions to that I'm sure, but too often the Try/Catch is used with a blank Catch that makes even the developer scratch their heads when the program crashes because they have nothing to go on (by their own doing).DevExpress (and I'm a big fan of their stuff) has a little three minute video that encapsulates that concept well and I thought that you all might enjoy watching it:[URL]

I understand how try-catch works and how try-finally works, but I find myself using those (usually) in two completely different scenarios:
try-finally (or using in C# and VB) is mostly used around some medium-sized code block that uses some resource that needs to be disposed properly.
try-catch is mostly used either
around a single statement that can fail in a very specific way or (as a catch-all) at a very high level of the application, usually directly below some user interface action.
In my experience, cases where a try-catch-finally would be appropriate, i.e., where the block in which I want to catch some particular exception is exactly the same block in which I use some disposable resource, are extremely rare. Yet, the language designers of C#, VB and Java seem to consider this to be a highly common scenario; the VB designers even think about adding catch to using.
Or am I just overly pedantic with my restrictive use of try-catch?
EDIT: To clarify: My code usually looks like this (functions unrolled for clarity):
Try
do something
Aquire Resource (e.g. get DB connection)
Try
[Code]....
which just seems to make much more sense than putting any of the two catches on the same level as finally just to avoid indentation.

I make a program to check certain website.
The idea is to do webclient.DownloadStringAsync thingy and then wait till each one is solved. So like multi threading application.
The program itself is a single thread.
Well, when I loop 400 times it takes too long. Every time I press pause the program in debug it stop at this line[code]...

Something happened to my VS2005 setup and now the first time load for F1 can take a full minute to load. I think the last significant thing I did was install an add-in for ESRI ArcExplorer. I uninstalled that add-in but help is stil VERY slow to start.Does anyone recognize the problem and have a simple fix?
