View 1 RepliesCan we Refresh Browser Instance using VB.NET 2005
View 1 RepliesI have been searching a lot online but couldn't find a solution for my problem. I want it to refresh every certain interval of time without this message to display. Now Ican't minimize my program because I'm putting an automatic Sendkeys.send("{Enter}") after the refresh to get rid of that message by clicking on "Retry".And If I minimize it the Enter will be executed on the active Window, which might be any other Window.
I hope that you understand what I mean, If not, I will clarify more.
Try
For Each wb As WebBrowser In TabControl1.Controls
wb.Refresh()
Next
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(ex.Message)
End Try
I created two forms in asp.net, there are test1.aspx and test2.aspx. The test1 page contains one submit button. If the user clicks this, I do transfer to the test2 page by using server.transfer method. In this situation, the browser will show the test2 page content but the address bar of the browser will show the test1 page location. When the user clicks the refresh button of the browser or F5, the test1 page is worked and the submit button is worked. I don't want to work this. I want to refresh the test2 page. How could I do that? I don't want to use response.redirect.
View 2 RepliesWe have an existing VB.net application. Upon an event, we need to open a browser window. I'm able to open the browser window like this:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://s3web01/suggestions?item=" + strItem + "&co=" + strOrder)
Upon another event, we need to refresh the browser window with different parameters for strItem and strOrder.
If I call the same code above, it opens a new tab in the browser window. Is there any way to refresh the same browser window that was previously opened?
I'm using ASP.net; I have a popup browser window that contains an databound gridview with textboxes. It has an "Add to Order" button which takes the values entered and updates the database, then closes the popup and refreshes the parent. This currently works perfectly using window.opener.document.forms[0].submit();self.close(); in a RegisterScriptBlock
I now need to update the database on gridview page chage so that textbox values are not lost. I put window.opener.document.forms[0].submit(); into the PageIndexChanging event of the datagrid, but it does not refresh the parent window. Refreshing the parent window with the order lines helps the user see what they have already ordered. My update database method runs fine, just not the parent browser refresh. I also tried "window.opener.location.href = window.opener.location.href" to no avail.Refresh parent browser window on GridView page change?
I'm just starting to write a program to manipulate some intranet based databases using the web browser control, but have a problem with one specific database.I can log in from the start page of this database from my browser but it then opens in a new instance of IE (I think it's the java code (not java script) which does this when the page loads).How do I get it to open in my browser?OK, I can manipluate it with a doc object, but would prefer to do it in my browser for consistency, as the other databases open fine in my brower.I can't be more specific but could post the html text if necessary.Currently using the built in web control with VS2005 running on XP.

View 3 RepliesI am adding an object to a Listbox which has the properties "ID" and "Text". I have set the "DisplayMember" property of the Listbox to "Text" and "ValueMember" to "ID".Everything works fine when I add a new item to the list, but when I edit the item and change the "Text" value, it is changing in the object but the Listbox still just showes the original value.I have tried calling ".Refresh" and ".Update" to see if they worked, but made no difference.I usually use VB6 for prototyping programs but decided to use VB.NET for this one. Did not realise VB.NET got shot of the "ItemData" property in the ListBox control.

how to pass string between forms instance throw the instance it self not any other form
View 6 RepliesI don't know how to do this and I've googled this to death.
View 2 RepliesI have a question that I hope to find a much more simpler solution to.I have two forms in my program which are named Main and Second. The Second form has several textboxs, buttons (some disabled) and comboboxes. When the Second form is opened via the Main form on the very first instance, everything works fine.
However, if I re-open the Second form after previously closing it, the disabled buttons are no longer disabled and the text controls and comboboxes show the previous values entered from the first instance which I do not want. How can I ensure that the Second form will be opened "clean" every time.
Currently I have to add instances to the onload event to do this to ensure that the form is cleared on the second instance.textbox1.text = ""textbox2.text = ""textbox3.text = ""button1.enabled = False

I am working on an application that ties into a SQL database on the back end. Currently the main form contains a series of combo boxes (Graph type, data format, location, and customer), two date pickers, and a button to launch the selections in a new form. Everything works just fine except there are a couple of things I can't seem to accomplish.
Example Data:
[CODE]...........
Case Select (with commented out lines for variations attempted):
[CODE]..........
1) I would like to be able to use some sort of case statement to color the bars in my chart based on value. I have tried approaching this in a couple of different ways but neither of the options seem to work. First, I tried this (the If Not is used because depending on what values are passed to the stored procedure in SQL, different columns will be returned):
[CODE]..........
Only one series is created with this method, so I can see how/why a Select Case would set all bars the same color. I have also tried creating a series for each row in the returned dataset but it results in 22 bars of different colors, for each of the rows (484 bars):
[CODE]..........
So is there any way to modify the second set of code there to only select the value from the "Percent TMHB" cell that corresponds with Row(i), rather than ALL values from the "Percent TMHB" column for EACH Row(i)?
2) Since I am drawing/creating these graphs in a new window, is there any way to also create a new timer on the "newFrm" and have the tick refresh the data? I've struggled with this but I feel like it should be easy. Say someone chooses a "TMHB", "Percentage", "Chicago", "All" (Graph type, data format, location, customer) and launches the graph, which opens in a new window, then they want to do "TMHB", "Percentage", "LA", "All" and have both windows up, refreshing automatically throughout the day. Can I somehow store the SelectCommand.Parameters values in the new form/timer so that it will query the database again every 5 minutes?
Example code for the StoredProcedure and creating the new form:
If combo_GraphType.SelectedItem = "TMHB" Then
Dim newFrm As New Form
Dim newChart As New Chart

I am developing a application where a url is supposed to be passed to Internet Explorer using a search button. But if more than one url passes it should open in same instance. I dont want new instance to be opened every time. I am using SHDocVw.dll for the same. I have coded for opening a new IE instance and URL is getting passed successfully. But meanwhile if I close that open IE then I get exception and my program dont work.
View 1 RepliesI am in the process of upgrading a VB6 Project to Vb.net. My problem is that when I open a child form in my project from within the Parent form a new instance of the Parent form is created. The code is fairly simple:
frmnewContract.MdiParent = Me
frmnewContract.Show()
In vb.net, you can address a public variable from another form using the form name along with the variable.
form2.show
form2.k = 3
However, if you use a form variable to show an instance of the form, you must use that variable name to address the public variable. Two instances of the same form are displayed in the following example. The public variable k is assigned a value of 3 only in the first instance of the form, the one from form2.show. frm.k can be used to assign a value to the other form.
dim frm as new form2
form2.show
frm.show
form2.k = 3
Assuming only one instance of the form is shown in the application, is it reliable to address a public variable using the form name (form2.k), or is it better to show the form with a form variable and use that to refer to the instance of the form (frm.k)? Would the same answer apply to a property as well as a public variable?

I've created a tabbed web browser.
I use AddTab(URL) to add a new tab with a web browser.
The only problem I'm running into is that when I right click on a link and try to "open in new tab" that is not an available option.
so I need to be able to add that to the right click menu and then have it execute AddTab(URL) with the selected link.
Public Sub AddTab(ByRef URL As String, ByRef TabControl As TabControl)
Dim NewBrowser As New CustomBrowser
Dim NewTab As New TabPage

As an ameture developer, I've never really used classes. However, I've been reading about using classes and automatic properties. I have therefore created a class which looks similar to this:
Public Class Quote
Property QuoteNum as integer
Property AccNum as String
Property Price as Decimal
End Class
The stumbling part for me comes in the way of letting form2 know which class form1 has initialized. There are in this example 3 forms to this wizard. If someone starts another wizard whilst half way through the first wizard we need to keep the variables seperate hence using the class. I think I'm along the right track, but maybe confusing myself a little.

View 4 RepliesI've done simple preliminary research without success--I'm posting now simply because time is an issue. I wanted to see if I could use the on-form web browser to pull up forms not on the server or internet, but locally hosted in the solution. Based on what the user selects in a combo box, I need certain parameters (any 5 are relevant out of approx 100 total). I was hoping to do this without a button--pulling up a form with command button is a last resort. Is this possible?
