Does anyone know if it's possible to have a tab page, on a tab control, with a smaller area than other tab pages on the tab control.
For example, if the small tab was in focus, the contents of the tab behind would be visible.
I have tried the tab page size properties, this doesn't work.
Let say I had a project contains 10 forms and 10 reports and typed dataset (xsd)I am trying to divide my project forms into dlls, so when the client had a problem or asks for modification in single forms, I had to build the project all over again and the exe size will be large.
in my current project, the exe size is 4.8 MB, and I am working with customers by internet and remoting, so every time I make small changes (change the back color of textbox in one form) I had to rebuild and send the whole 4.8 MB to the customer. And not forgetting the increasing size of the exe with time.I know that converting my project to class library and built it will convert it to dll, so I had to create a second project to manage it.
1 - Can I convert 3 or 4 forms / 10 forms total in my current windows application project to dll?
2- What is the best recommended method to divide the project into smaller entity.
Is there a way to automatically resize a windows form to fit a smaller display? I created a program on a computer with a 12" display, everything works fine. However, when I load the same program on a computer with a 8" display, I am not able to view all the contents on the windows form. Is there a way to correct this without manually resizing all the contents on the form?

I'm working on an OWA portion, and OWA normally doesn't allow the textfields on the Login page to be auto-filled. Is there a way I can force this? Search through the OWA login page code, find the fields, then fill in the fields with preset/saved data?

Now, I can easily have many tabs with the same form loaded. On the form I have a 'Search Button' So my question is, after clicking the search button how can I tell which instance of the form the 'Search Button' was clicked? Hope this makes sense

View 1 RepliesI have a form with a Tab Control that has 18 pages. When I click on a tab it opens the page and select a textbox on that page (txtTextbox1. Select() ). This works for the first 8 pages but not for the remaining 10 pages. Although on these pages I can mouse click on the textbox, enter info, save then click my Add button that clears the textboxes and has the code (txtTextbox1. Select() ). The textbox is selected just fine. The code for all my pages is the same except for the tab name and the control names. The tab key will move the selection to the next textbox in order on all pages and the Enter key is coded to do the same. The first 8 pages have a total of 256 labels, buttons, list boxes, textboxes and checkboxes on them.

View 1 RepliesI want to access a page variable from a user control placed on that page. All the solutions work in C# via casting to the page class. The problem is that this doesn't work in VB. The page class is not selectable from the Intellisense dialog. Manual typing results in the error type not defined. It is strange that C# can do this without a problem. What is the proper solution for this in VB? I had other cases where I needed to access a control on the main page. C# again uses a cast to the page class to access the control. This doesn't work in VB again. So how can I access the page class from a user control in generell?

I have an ASP.NET 3.5 page with some AJAX, some Validators and some business-rule validation done in the code-behind page (VB.NET).
The Validators set focus to the 'offending' control when an error is detected.
When a business rule is violated, I used the following code to generate some javascript "on the fly" and execute it to simulate the Winforms "MessageBox.Show" functionality:
Sub DisplayMessages()
Dim lblError As New Label
lblError.Text = "<script language='javascript'>" & Environment.NewLine & "window.alert('"
[Code]....
At the end of the "btnSave.Click" code, if everything went ok, calling that subroutine.
What I get is the page scrolling to the top and then back to where it was when the Save button was clicked.
For various reasons, 'MaintainScrollPositionOnPostback="True"' is in the Page directives at the top of the .aspx code. What I'd really like is to make that FALSE for just a moment so that the page resets at the top - again, only if everything is ok and only for this button (there are other buttons on the page that require the page to keep it's scroll position).
I have an asp.net usercontrol which represents a "popup" dialog. Basically, it's a wrapper for the jQuery UI dialog which can be subclassed to easily make dialogs. As part of this control, I need to inject a div into the page the control is used on, either at the very top or very bottom of the form so that when the popup is instantiated, it's parent is changed to this div. This allows "nested" popups without the child popup being trapped inside the parent popup.
The trouble is, I can't find a safe way to inject this div into the page. A usercontrol doesn't have a preinit event, so I can't do it there, and calling Page.Form.Controls.Add(...) in Init, Load or PreRender causes the standard exception "The control collection cannot be modified during DataBind, Init, Load, PreRender or Unload phases."
I thought I had found a solution by using. ScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptBlock(Page, Me.GetType, UniqueID + "_Dialog_Div", containerDiv, False) which seemed to work well normally, but recently a coworker tried putting an UpdatePanel inside the dialog and now she's getting the error "The script tag registered for type 'ASP.controls_order_viewzips_ascx' and key 'ctl00$ContentBody$OViewZips_Dialog_Div' has invalid characters outside of the script tags: . Only properly formatted script tags can be registered."
How are you supposed to add controls to the pages control collection from inside a user control?
I have a webbrowser control, where I show images (bmp files, that the program creates), and I want to add some UserControls to setup the images (as showing layers, or choosing colors to display). Is easy to do appropiate UserControls on VB.NET, and I know almost nothing about HTML, so, I would like to add standard VB.NET UserControls near the images.
View 12 RepliesSeems like something is preventing me from accessing forms inside web pages that I visit.

View 1 RepliesI'm making an app with several forms and wanted to add a label to each form that, when double clicked, would resize the form to 10 x 10 pixels.
ControlBox, MaximizeBox, MinimizeBox, properties are set to false so there is no title bar. No text or icon. MinimumSize is set to 0,0.
I made a new project that consists of one form with one label to make sure there was nothing in my code causing the problem but still every time I double click the label the form is resized to 27 pixels high by 112 wide.
The exe can call functions and forms in the dll's that are part of the solution BUT is there anyway
for the dll's to access forms, dataset's etc in the main exe project?
It doesnt appear that it works that way.
I forgot to add this is a VS2005 application.
I'm trying to make a label control transparent over a Panel control.However by setting the background colour of the label to Transparent, it actually sees right through to the form itself, not the panel as intended.
As an example we use a panel with a background as white, we make the label transparent, however it gets the form�s colour as blue.However, we are using a custom panel control and need the label to be transparent over the panel and not see the forms background.
How do i make subform to appear on Tab Page.

View 1 RepliesI have an ASP.Net site that is using the singular form model. Each page has multiple forms (login, search), and I'd like for the forms to obey the 'enter' key.

wierd thing is that when i run the app, the controls are placed properly, but design time is totally f&*ked up.I know this one isn't me. is it the tab control? should i just do toggle buttons at the top and show/hide my own panels? this is just too freaky to deal with. is there an easy work around for this?
