Forms :: Windows Beeps When Key Combination Entered
Jul 30, 2011
I am working on a program in which I allow the user to quickly add strings to a textbox by pressing a key combination, such as ALT+S. Inserting the strings and setting the cursor to the right position works fine. Its just that windows makes an annoying beep as if an error was encountered every time I press the key combination. I am using the KeyDown event to handle the keystrokes, and I have tried e.Handled = True - without success. Here's a bit of code to give you the idea:[code]

I have a complete ms access system build(tables, forms, reports, query). I am in the process of using vb to re-create the system. I managed to show every fields on my vb forms without any coding. However I have some wrong information in my combo boxes. For example I will have repetition(duration, ie 3 months is showing 5 times). Also when I use the arrows only three records are showing. It says 104 records and only shows 1-3. I have also checked all the data in vb that has been transfered from access and it is all similar, ni repetition.

I have the following function to read an excel spreadsheet and read a certain cell for a value and then I put it into my own List(of T). Everything works fine. However the one quirk I am running into is that as the "oExcel.Workbooks.Open(ExcelFileName)" executes, it does a "Windows Beep" sound.

I am trying to get valid data entered in a Windows Form.I simply used bunch of IF and ElseIF statements to set the conditions.
1. Because the field can only accept letters, I need to filter out characters. Eg: !@#$, stuff like that.
2. I need to apply a loop so that the user is prompted to re-enter the data or to have the error message repeat. Right now the error message display once and that's it.I understand the Do Until Loop but my book shows example only on numbers.
Public Class validDataForm
Private Sub validDataForm_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
End Sub

I am trying to make a timer that beeps 3-5 times and runs a progress bar. All it has to do is click start (timer set for 2 minutes starts) and as time runs out the progress bar fills. When the time is up 3-5 beeps happen. I am missing the coding for the 3-5 beeps and design parts for it and all coding for that along with code for setting the 2 minute timing. There is no label for telling the time left or to go just a progress bar. Here is my code so far.

I may be doing this wrong but I want to call a sub when the user presses enter on a textbox. The sub then shows a window in dialog mode. When I close that window, the computer makes a ding sound. Why is that? Is there a better way for detecting enter being presses on a textbox and not getting that ding?
If e.KeyChar = vbCr Then
LookupItem()
End If

I hv to create a login for my windows appn(this is the first tym i am creating a login in visual studio) i am unable to figure out exactly what should i do
I tried the following:
Public Function User_Login(ByVal unam As String, ByVal pwd As String) As Boolean
ada = New OleDbDataAdapter("Select * from UserProfile where UName='" + unam + "' and
[CODE]...
Now i called this function on the button click of my login form and passed the values of username and password textboxes as parameters to it. But the problem arising is that it is logging in by simply clicking the button irrespective of what is entered in the username and password textboxes.
I think this is because ds.Tables.Count is never 0(whether the username and password match or not) Use code tags when posting your code. Code tags are used like so =>

Hi, I'm working on a program that reads text entered into a textbox and creates a list of items by separating entries by commas. Everything is working fine, except, because I am using an array to store the items in the list, I have a limited number of entries. This is only a problem because, as it is written currently, each comma counts as an individual entry. Therefore, users can enter ",,," for example, and it would use up 3 places in the array.
I'm looking for a way to check to make sure there is text after the comma before adding an entry. I've attempted to use the .substring command to check the character after, which works until it gets to the last character. Because there is no character after that, it will give an error.
Here is my code for extra clarity:
Public Class frmMain
Dim intCounter As Integer 'Stores the # of commas in the string
Dim Messages(49) As MessageProperties

I have the requirement to create an application that has multiple front ends developed using Windows Forms, WPF, ASP and Compact Framework Mobile Forms.I would like to be able to create a series of obejct representing the business logic and have this logic accessible from the various front ends available. My first thought was to use remoting as I'd like to be able to pass the business objects back and forth between client and server but the compact framework doesn't support remoting and also transferring a full framework business object to a compact framework business object doesn't seem possible.My next thought was to use web services but again the passing of business objects seems to be very hard to accomplish. Without doing this I would have to create individual web methods for each business operation.
Finally my next option is to use sockets and write the whole client/server logic within some classes and expose them to the UI/Business layer. My only problem with this is it is not scaleable should the number of clients increase dramatically whereas using remoting or web services I can host the solution via ASP.Net.Does anybody have an ideas on the best way forward for this or even have any input on how they would write an application that required a windows form, wpf, asp website and mobile device GUI all of which want to use the same business logic?
