I have a problem whereby some rubbish code is not releasing its memory (eventually reaches the 10k handle limit and crashes).I'm looking to insert some logging in the application to dump a list of handles present at the point of failure.

View 10 RepliesReflection on Objects is quite simple, not so seems to be on static things, like modules ( module1.vb ecc... )My question is HOW to gather information from VB Modules and then use them to copy values from a bunch of Public Variables on Module1 to same-named Variables on Module2.I've tried a thing like this by now :
ListBox1.Items.Clear()
Dim A As System.Reflection.Assembly = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly

With GetMembers( NO FLAGS ) I manage to get list of members, but If I try to get only my-declared-memebrs ( with any combination of flags ) I get none.Finally, what i'd like to achieve is this :

2. For each Public Variable in Module1, put same value in Variable on Module2 which has same name and type.
I need to find a Windows forms Text edit which can handle MS Word documents correctly.That is documents with Images, textboxes etc (.doc, .docx).I have tried Devexpress Xtrarichedit and TXText Control but when you load a MS Word Document (.doc, .docx) the document does not appear as it does in MS Word.That is Textboxes overlapping images are misaligned or have no transparent background option, so the white background of the textbox hides part ot the image.Has anybody had experience with 3rd party Document .net editors which mamage MS Word Documents correctly?
View 3 RepliesWe have an application that has a main form with a map on it. Right now the paradigm is to have forms that are displayed using menu items to display information to the user. Most of these forms are modal forms, but a couple are non-modal forms that interact with the map. For some of the forms, it really would make for a better user experience if we could dock them in the main form of the app and allow the user to see both the form and the map. For instance. We could have a list of map features in a docked window, and select one of the items on the list and have the map zoom to that feature. Or do the reverse: let the users select a map item and have a docked window that shows details of the feature. Sounds great, but I wonder about what sort of gotchas we may encounter. In particular, what if we have two windows docked at the same time? Could we get tangled up in our event code?

Example Form1 with data bound controls and a Public Variable Form1Var.Form2 with data bound controls and a Public Variable Form2Var DataTables are related Form2 Data is related to Form1 Data in a one-to-many.What I am trying to accomplish.When editing Form1 data there is a button to open Form2 if new data needs to be added. on closing Form2 I would like Form1 to remain at the state it was in before opening Form2. If I Change Visibility of Form1 when Form2 is opened upon Retun to Form1 Data is reloaded, if I minimise Form1 when Form2 is opened upon return to Form1 Public variables are reset to defaults.I have many Forms with many controls and buttons to do Lookups or additional add to related tables.

I had created a form(MDI Child) which have 3 to 4 dataset on it. They all are loaded from the database at the form load event and therefore takes too much time to load and show some part of form during that time. When it load completely it shows the whole form. Is there any way that user will see the complete form instead of some broken form.
View 4 RepliesI have 50 pictureboxes in one form. I need to write the same code for each one.one is to write a function for each PictureBox handling each object induvidually two is to write a function for all PictureBoxes that handle ALL object, but I have to declare each object in the Handles syntax of the subrutine as follows:
Private Sub PreviewTile(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles PB1.DoubleClick, PB2.DoubleClick, PBChapel.DoubleClick
DrawBorder(sender, Color.Wheat, 3)

I was wondering if there is a way to write a subrutine that will Handle ALL Pictureboxes without having to enumerate them.example

View 2 RepliesI have an event in a module, like this:
vb.net
Module Module1 Public Event Event1(Value as Boolean)End Module
I want to be able to handle this event from different forms. This is what I tried to do...
vb.net
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Event1Handler(Value As Boolean) Handles WindowsApplication1.Event1 End SubEnd Class
But I get a squiggly line under WindowsApplication1 that says Handles clause requires a WithEvents variable defined in the containing type or one of its base types. I tried to swap Module1 in, but same thing. I tried without anything in front of Event1, but still nothing.
is it possible for vb.net to gather what isp a user is on? say if im on ntl it could tell im on ntl?
View 4 RepliesI have defined 5 variables T1, T2, T3, T4, T5 As Double and set them all = 0. On a form I have a enter information button. Each time the button is pressed I want to assign a different variable, to a text box input. For instance, If I enter 1 that will become T1, and then if I enter 2 and press the button again, that value becomes T2.
I have tried
If T1 = 0 then
T1 = textbox.text
End if
If T1<>0 And T2 = 0 then
T2 = textbox.text
End if
I have tried to use 'else' statements and all kinds of things like that to no avail. I can get the first two variables correctly assigned but three is impossible with my current understanding. Is there a way to do this, or do I need 5 buttons, so that I can control which variable is assigned? To be correct my intent is to create an observation with three variables each time the button is pressed.
For example, the first button press will result in three variables being assigned a value other than 0; they are T1, B1, and R1. I have just begun to understand the concept of arrays and am wondering if that may be the way to go in this situation. I was just going at this in a newbie way I'm sure and trying to handle each variable type individually, and figure out all the T* variables and move onto the B* variables.

This is the cut-down version of the control:
Public Class FancyLabel
Inherits Label
Protected Overrides Sub OnPaint(ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs)

When I run the program, the GDI object count is 38. Then I open a form that has only one FancyLabel on it and the GDI object count gets increased to 42. I then close the form and the GDI count falls down to 39 and stays there no matter how many instances of the form I create and close.JV

I have a form for which the form load event only fires one time. When the program starts. It will not fire again until I end the program and restart.

I'm inheriting a couple of the common WinForms controls and then manually repainting them so that they will correctly render over a WinForm with the Aero Glass effect enabled. I have this working well with the TextBox. I ran into a snag with the ComboBox though in that it would only repaint some of the control. I fired up MS Spy++ and saw that the ComboBox has an Edit control in it (that's not in it's control collection). I can repaint that Edit box, but I need to get the handle of it and a couple of my attempts have flopped. I found some code that used the FindWindowEx API passing the Comboboxes handle but for me it returns 0.
hwndEdit = FindWindowEx(Combo1.hwnd, 0&, vbNullString, vbNullString)
Basically, I need the handle of the edit control inside the combobox (once I understand how to correct get that then I can get the additional controls in other ones I want like the ListView). Here's the Spy++ screen shots to illustrate (from Spy++ I can see the individual handles).
I use VB.NET 2010 I have created a user control which holds a few textboxes, where the user can find articles. This user control is added to several Forms (where ever the search is needed).

The usercontrols's Key_Down Event is never fired. - I have set KeyPreview of the form to true, then the Key_Down of the Form is fired.
View 6 RepliesMy application uses an MDI form, and there are instances where the end user will need multiple child windows open at a time. I need an easy way for the user to switch between windows, which made me think of using tabs kinda like Firefox, or like the tabs in the Visual Studio IDE up at the top where you can switch between open forms and code files.
I'm curious if there is a control in .NET that will already do this? I would rather not re-invent the wheel if I can help it. Google has failed me thus far.

View 1 RepliesI would like to add the names of people in a SQL Database to a Multiline textbox if two values in their row do not equal 6. The first name and last name, as well as graduating year need to be added to the textbox, and then a new line needs to be created. The two values are contained in two separate columns in the DB. I'd like to try and stay away from using SQL Queries to accomplish this, so is there any way I can call these values using VB? Keep in mind the number of people that have values under 6 may vary from time to time. The purpose of this will be so that someone can print out a list of members who don't have the required amount of points at any given time.

Sub()
m_PopProcessingForm = New WaitingForm(m_Message)
Application.Run(m_PopProcessingForm)
End Sub))

The stack trace points to the part of code where I hide the form. How could the handle not have been created, when just before the Invoke call, I loop until said handle is created?
