EDIT: I know this has been asked a billion time. But when I tried to get the codes together, I get many warnings and exception errors.
How do I get the icon of a program to display along with the name of it just like in Add/Remove Program? I've tried to search for codes regarding it and pieced them together but I get too many warnings and exception errors. Below is my code for the entire form.

View 3 RepliesHere's the code that I use to extract the icon size that I want:
Dim i As Icon = My.Resources.Spectrum
Using i2 As New Icon(i, New Size(256, 256))
Me.PictureBox1.Image = i2.ToBitmap
End Using
This works from 16x16 up to 128x128 but for 256x256 it extracts the 128x128 icon. I tried 0x0, because I seem to remember that that is how the large size is stored in the meta data, but that didn't work either.
I have this cash register program with separate forms for the items and the display form. The code works untill you press the button 2x. It says 5.5 + 5.5 = 11.5??? Can you fix this code?

Dim cash As String
cash = (5.5)[code]....
Im a novice programmer just learning VB .NET 4, I have some basic knowledge of programming but no expert.
My question, I building i simple program that interacts with a small .mdb database file.I've been adding several forms to my application but now all of a sudden on the main form, I'm getting a constant busy icon "blue circle". Also this happens on one other form when the cursor is on any open space of the form, but returns to an arrow when over any button or text box.
The main form has no real code whatsoever, its basically just a toolstripmenu and the only code is several tool strip buttons like the one below Private Sub CompanysToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles CompanysToolStripMenuItem.Click
How can you add a image where when you double click on the icon and the program starts it shows a picture before the program loads. Like Photoshop startup or the new 2010 visual Basic express start up

I am really confused! My program doesn't work if I don't have Visual Studio here in my PC. To test it I have uninstalled Visual Studio. But my program doesn't work though Flash Player is present there (I have used Flash animation in the first form).
To be more sure about it I have installed Flash. But it's not working! That means the Flash animation file (.swf) is not making a problem! It needs support from Visual Studio to start. Doesn't it mean that some files are not attached with a setup file as a result it needs Visual Studio to run? Let me tell you how I create a setup file of my program.

When I click on the icon of my program it shows the error message

View 1 RepliesIm in a win.form app. in .Net 2008 I have a lot of Icons that I want to display on a (TouchScreen enviroment) button The icons are in 8,16; 32 bit in the sizes 16X16 ; 32X32 ; 48X48
The buttons are large enough, they have a dimension of 252X132.The images are loaded via the Button propertie : Image. This has allso a size propertie, but is disabled. And I can see its loading the 32X32 32bpp format But I want the 48X48 size on there. Does some 1 knows how to get those sizes op the button.
I know its possible via a imagelist but why have a resource if you cant use it??
How would I display an Icon at 48x48 resolution on a form in vb.net? I looked at using imagelist , but I don't know how to display the image that I add to the list using code and how to specify it's coordinates on the form. I did some google searching but none of the examples really show what I need to know.

View 3 RepliesI have been trying for a good while to save the forms icon(the one shown in the taskbar & such to a file...using such code as Me.Icon.Save(stream) & writing the stream to disk for example but every time I do there is a loss of color information it seems, maybe due to not using 32-bit color or lossless color or something...by what I see online it only uses 24-bit color or something.?Not sure what the problem is specifically but the point is there is a loss of color information.if I use Me.Icon.ToBitmap.Save() it works & saves right but it saves as type .png by default, regardless of the extension & not an actual icon file(.ico) which would be usable in the editor itself as an icon how do I convert it or save it correctly to begin with but without the loss of color information.This is basically a test project to see what I can do & what I still need to work on...and this is apparently one spot but I can't figure out the problem after searching bing, google and a few other search sites and reviewing the top 100 links of each to see if any contain any useful information on how to get this working....

View 14 RepliesI have one program with many, many forms in it and the same program is used for two companies. Basically, when a user starts the program the data location is set depending on which of the two companies is being used. Therefore, I am trying to dynamically set the icon for each form based upon which company is being used. I didn't want to add code on every form to set the icon, which is mostly what I found when I was searching for a solution.

View 3 RepliesI have a treeview, it lists all folders and subfolders and files within each folder. Now, I want to display each file / folders associated icon. I am using the SHGetFileInfo API, it works sort of, what I mean by sort of is, that my treeview doesn't update after each folder / file. Sometimes it keeps giving me the Recycle Bin's icon at different folders.

well i convert a certain image to an icon file and when i upload it its just a white rectangle in the corner of my app instead of the actual icon???
View 2 RepliesI noticed that when the app closed the icon remained on the taskbar until the mouse was hovered over it, so added this:-
If Not AlarmClockNotify Is Nothing Then
AlarmClockNotify.Dispose()
End If
.. and that did the job.
Then I noticed that if the balloon was showing at the time the app was closed, the icon went - but the balloon stayed, so added this:-
If Not AlarmClockNotify Is Nothing Then
AlarmClockNotify.Visible = False
AlarmClockNotify.Visible = True
AlarmClockNotify.Dispose()
End If
and everything worked fine until the app was closed WITHOUT the icon showing (only dislays if an alarm is pending in the next x days) - then it throws and 'object reference not set to an instance of an object' - odd because it passed straight through the 'not is nothing' If statement.
i want the icon of my application to flash when an event triggers (upload complete) like this for example i use VS2008 and i've been guess-working the code.

View 4 RepliesI have created a new icon using VB.NET and have saved it to the project directory. I then set the icon property for a form to point to my new icon file.

We 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?
