I am writing a Class Library for a GIS Windows application. The class has a form that I open when I load the dll command in the application. After the form opens the form moves to the back of the GIS Windows application, and I want it to be in front of the GIS Windows application all the time. How can I do this?

For a while i have been playing a guessing game with this line of code.
If Sdown = True And Shooter.Top >= Me.ClientRectangle.Height Then
Shooter.top += Shooterspeed
End If
Basically i have a shooter on the form and whenever i press the down key the shooter moves down the form and disappears off of the bottom of the form. I have been trying to get this to stop for some while.
In the main form the user can choose to download information from a device.Since this request takes time, when "download information" is pressed I open new form in a separate thread: Private Sub RunDownload()

I want to open a VB.net form using a ThreadPool with a maximum of 10 threads. I need to do this because, the form should open based on a live event and i need atmost 10 forms on the desktop at a time. If i open the form on every live event without using a ThreadPool, the desktop will be floaded with many forms. I am using QueueUserWorkItem method of threadpool to queue a method which opens the form. In this queued method, there is form1.show() statement called. But after displaying the form, this method finishes execution and again we have 10 threads available in the system. I somehow want to either keep this method running so that 1 thread is occupied or i want to keep the thread alive till the form1 is closed by the user. I want the 11th form to appear on the desktop, only when any of the existing forms out of the 10 (already on desktop) is closed.

View 1 RepliesI am at the form/application stage, and now working on my final project. I know how to open an application from the form, but I want to open the app within the form. I already have my web browser on one form, and button command that gets me there. I also want to run a special program that I have already created in the command window on the form that I have. I have the form ready, the command that I click to open the cmd.exe but, now it I cannot get it to run in the form, ie. a panel. At least that is where I think it should run.
my panel is called pnlcommandwindow, and I have it visible:false until I click the button. It opens with cmd.exe and command.com. But, I want the same window that is opened when I run a program in VB command window.
In the command button or the panel or another box?
I've been in VB express for about tree weeks, formerly of VB 5 for about 10 years.
I need to open a form on top of the form of another application, that is, making the other applications form its parent. The title on the applications form can change, so searching for the form by name won't work.
I'm also curious, can you start a vb express application without opening its form? Like in Vb5/6 you could start in Sub_Main?
I have to develop an application/tool, in which one part of the form should contain web browser.(i have used web browser component ) and other is a application like visual studio. when i press enter. i should fit inside the second half of the form. the code which i have used simple shoots up an application and it runs a separate one.

I want to make an application that moves all files from 1 zip to another and deletes a folder.
It is a Minecraft mod manager, so i wanna move all files from one zip containing the mod, to the minecraft.jar (which is a zip with another extension) overwriting all files. Also, it should delete the META-INF folder in minecraft.jar to prevent black-screening.
I am converting several VBA projects to Windows form applications. The only problem I have is that some of the functionality of Excel is essential to the application, such as R1C1 formulas. I do not want to instantiate the Excel application or access saved worksheets. All of the data is retrieved by querying Oracle databases. 2-Dimensional arrays are not an option because the columns contain differing datatypes, and DataGridViews are too slow to work with.
I thought simply dimming a Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet object would be enough, but the program kept failing and upon inspecting the object's elements in debug mode, I found that every value says this:
{"Unable to cast COM object of type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.WorksheetClass' to interface type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Worksheet'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{000208D8-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}' failed due to the following error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE))."}

View 5 RepliesThis sub moves a rectangle to the center of the form and when it gets there it moves back to its original location. But something weird has happened and the rectangle still moves, but the boolean values dont change. I tested to see if that part of the code was executed by putting a messagebox where the boolean values are supposed to change and the messagebox didnt appear.
Here is the sub:

I have to write an application that consists of mainly one main form, but several different things I wanna display. Pretty standard I guess. So there is a menu, some controls, and the main stuff below (ranging form graphs, tables, dropdown boxes, print preview, etc). I would like to use it like one would use frames in html, design an object that is limited to a box or panel that I define. The literature I have does not give me a clear idea of how to do this (yet). The most obvious seem to be the use of MDI, open a predefined form with no borders, maximize it before showing and remove all minimize/maximize options. But that does not work so well. The form inside the MDI parent does not fit the size that is given for it when it is loaded. e.g.
[CODE]:......................
So my main question is: Is MDI the way to go here at all or are there better/easyer ways to achieve this? If MDI is the way to go, how do I sucessfully restrict a child form inside another object, without giving the user any opportunity to resize (i noticed that I have minnimize/maximize/close buttons, even if I disable them on the child forms themselves)

View 1 RepliesI am wanting to change my startup form for my application in Visual Studio for VB.Net. I double clicked "My Project" in the Solution Explorer and then clicked on the Application tab.

View 9 RepliesI only managed make the form always on top. But what I want is when the form is on top, user cannot access the other application in the windows.
For example : Some messagebox won't let users access the other application until the users hit the OK button.
As quick solution to the user wanting to be able to open a particular form from any other form (in a large application with many forms, not an MDI app), I added KeyPreview to each form and corresponding KeyPress event so that said form will open (ShowDialog) upon pressing F12 from all these other forms.
Since this update has been in place, the user has been getting intermittent (maybe 2 or 3 within the course of a workday) but nasty errors such as "exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation" and the dreaded "out of memory". Is there reason to believe (off the top of your head) that the KeyPreview could be causing this?
