I have a method where I am making a trial period. When the date has exceded its trialperiod the program will not close.
The code looks like this:
Public Sub DemoRestrict()
If My.Settings.dteStartDate = Nothing Then
My.Settings.dteStartDate = Now
End If
If My.Settings.intTime = Nothing Then
[Code] .....
Why does the form not close? Is just runs to the next method in the load sequence.

I made a project on vb.net.Im working with multiple forms.Now,from the main form, I activated the 2nd form.then hide the main form. My problem is when I directly close the 2nd form, my project is till running.I closed it trough the "Close Button" of the form.Any way i could interact with that so I could go back to the Main(first) form when i close it there.

this might seem a fairly stupid question to ask, but how do you use a Button to close all forms and end a Program?

View 7 RepliesIn a program I'm working on, I want a "Loading..." dialog to close when it can't log in to a site using the username and password provided by the user. Basically, I have the code set up right because the function it is supposed to carry out when that occurs does work, but for some reason it ends up in some really weird stuff happening. In the Loading form, I have it set to do "Form1.Show()" and then "Me.Close()", assuming it would simply show the login form and then close the Loading form. However, when this happens, the Loading form closes, and then for only an instant Form1 shows, and then the Loading form shows and Form1 closes. This happens forever until I stop the debugging, and I can't seem to figure out why. Am I using the wrong method? What exactly does Me.Close() do anyways? All I want to do is close the form and open another

I have a situation where me.close() doesn't close the form. I have a form with a button with the code seen below. What happens when the button is clicked is the new form shows, but the original form(calling form) is still there. When I go into debug mode, I can see the me.close() execute, but nothing happens (calling form stays open). When I close the second form both forms close. If I comment out the call for the second form to open the first form closes without problem.

i have a problem with trying to get 2 forms to close at different times using a timer on each of the 2 forms.
This is my form layout:
Quote:
frmMain
Frm1
Frm2
Frm1 and Frm2 are identical to each other. FrmMain has 2 buttons on it. One button to call Frm1 and the other to call Frm2.Frm1 and Frm2 each has a timer. It counts down to 0 and then does a .close(). However, if i pause between clicking the second button they both seem to always disappears at the same time.I would do something like this...
Click on the first button (showing the Frm1 form)
wait about 10 secs...Click on the second button (showing the Frm2 form)they both are shown on screen...hen they both disappear at the same time.... which shouldn't happen since i clicked the Frm2 box 10 seconds AFTER Frm1... So Frm1 should hide before Frm2 does...but it does not.

I have two forms frmMain and frmNew, and one module modMain. In modMain I hold public variables which are needed for application. My question is how to open and close those two forms when needed? I ask this because if i set frmMain as startup form, then when closed, application will end, and one of those two forms will always be displayed. Also if I set frmNew as startup form, then when I close this form, application will also end. Is there a way to do this from module or something so my application won't end after closing and opening any of those two forms?

I am trying to make the program close if the -1 string is sent with the program. See my installer allows for me to run certain programs before it actually installs, but it doesn't shut down copies of the program itself. So I have a next startup instance set to shut the program down if the -1 is received. But if the program is not running it starts up instead. This is not desired. form1.close doesn't work. e.cancel = true doesn't work, etc etc. What can I do to make the program not start during this instance.
In my card game program, I have used 4 main GroupBoxes to act as dialogue boxes. Some contain additional GroupBoxes to house such things as RadioButtons, TextBoxes and CheckBoxes.Software places them when and where needed, so I usually move them apart in the Design screen to keep them all visible at once. However, with each new GroupBox I added to the program, their behaviour became increasingly vexing.In the design window, they are not allowed to overlap, or they will either partially or completely disappear. When they disappear, I have to find them with the Properties Viewer (when selected, the 4 sizing blocks appear and I can tease the drag symbol to appear).Worse, when my program is running, a GroupBox left in the Design mode in an "unfavoured location" (for lack of a better term) will refuse to appear when called.
I have single stepped past the code that positions the GroupBox and makes it visible and I have noted that the top and left positions are correct, but when I let the mouse hover over the word 'Visible' in the line "GroupBox1.Visible = True" the popup reports it as False.There is nothing I can do at run-time to make the GroupBox appear. I must return to the Design window and try moving it to a more favourable location.
I have an old app still written in VB2003 that required some changes, part of that was revamping a menu that isn't behaving.I've deleted it and it doesn't show in the designer but when I start the program there it is, and still not correct.How do I really get rid of it so I can build another one?I'd hate to have to delete the whole MainMenu, this is the 5th in line, that would be a lot of re-creating.

View 4 RepliesI'm currently in the process of building a text editor type program, and have run into a brick wall. I haven't done VB in years, so I may just need a little reminder on some things. I have coded everything so far as far as opening files, saving them, changing fonts, colors, etc. However, I'm looking to add a Close button to my menu strip that will just close the currently opened file, and not the entire program, while also ask the user if he/she would like to save before closing the file, and then if they select yes, it will show the save dialog, and if not, it will go ahead and close the currently opened item.
View 2 RepliesOkay so ive got this project iv been working on. Almost ready to get the beta on its way, last thing I needed to do is retrieve the EXE and change its icon. I found the EXE in the "bin" folder. Copied it to desktop. I went through the properties, no way to do it. Then I searched youtube, and google. Only possible way to change it I found was to use softwares. I tried Resource Hacker (ive used years back, this program was handy), but it didnt work. I replaced the default window-looking box icon with my icon, and that seemed fine. But once I saved and exit, the new file with updated icon was supposed to be created. Well it was, except just looking at the file icon I knew it didnt work. But when I right click and go to properties, that one changed. So why dosnt the MAIN icon change? In RH I seen no other icons

This ends with the form freezing for a moment, and then it resizes, but it's not until the end of the resize does it display properly, during the resize, their is a big black bar where the new part of the form is supposed to be.And when it's done resizing, it draws itself correctly.
In this windows forms app, I have a form with six comboboxes. Two are parents, one with a single child and the other with three children. All of these work beautifully except for one of the children. The code for each one is identical, and I've verified the query against the database a dozen times. I even have another of the children that is in the very same block of code. One works beautifully, the other one refuses to populate any data. Below is the code for the one that doesn't work. I would tell you on what line the error occurs, but it doesn't throw any errors. Try catches show nothing, and I have VS 2010 set to throw all errors, but I get nothing, just an empty combo box where there should be a list of names.

I've spent weeks working on a project. I develop on both of my computers (Desktop and Laptop) which are both equipped with VS Express 2010. The programs debug, and compile with no issues on both of my machines, even when the .exe is removed from the debug folder and placed elsewhere. However, when I try and run the program on my brother's computer, the initial form jumps up on the screen as desired. Then the program is designed to open the next form upon the click of a button. When that button is pushed, we get the following:
See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.
