Not sure what I am doing wrong here but I have 2 buttons and a rich text box. The issue is when I click the second button to add text to the rich text box and it over writes the current text that is already in the rich text box. How can I code this second button so that the text is added to the rich text box and not replacing the current text?
Here's my

I have a form called 'Bookmarks' that loads a bookmark file that contains a single word on one line. I have put buttons on the form for sorting this list, deleting items and changing the character case to lowercase, uppercase or Sentence Case.Now, deleting and sorting the list works fine, but when I try to change character cases,nothing happens. I started the debugger and found that my case changing code does work, but the listbox doesn't seem to update it's contents.I tried listbox.Update() and listbox.Refresh() but that didn't work either.
Here's my code for 'Set Case':

If bookCase = "default" Then Exit Sub

I started programming in VB2008 couple of weeks ago (I'm using the express version) and I'm getting stumped by this ridiculously simple problem. I am trying to retrieve varying parameters from an external application and display their values in real time on a windows form control e.g. a label or text box. I already know what class and methods to reference for that, however I can only display instantaneous values (unless I use a .click event handler, but thats foolish I want them displayed without my intervention) I tried writing a loop in form load event handler but that prevents the form from loading. I also tried a loop in another module but that doesn't work either.

I've created a windows form in VB Express 2005 with lots of combo boxes and print and save buttons.I would like to be able to save the contents of the populated combo boxes, labels etc ie the whole form from the save button, preferably to excel 2003. However, would be just as happy to save it in the form format. The only code behind the save button I have so far is this, which just navigates me to the directory. When I enter a filename and extension, the directory is empty:
Private Sub save_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _

I have a number of listboxes such as lstDivision1, lstDivision2 and so on. A user can choose the division they are interested in using code similar to:
For Each item As Object in lstDivision1.Items
lstDivision.Items.Add (item)

These listboxes have their Visible Property set to False. The contents are copied to lstDivision which is visible on the form.What I want to know is how I can ensure that the correct listbox is being copied to lstDivision?
I'm working on a desktop replacement project and was wondering if it possible to have a form which can be docked to the side of the screen that contains all the task tray icons and functions (I would imagine that the functions are held within the task tray/icons themselves as they act as little programs) and would update automatically whenever anything is added.
Also, I'd like it not to have a taskbar entry while running, just having it sit there on the screen until needed.
the project i am currently working on has a form in it that has quite a few objects that take a couple of seconds to load. Because of that, if i simply use the .show command, the form shows up, but there are a bunch of blank white boxes where the content is still loading, how can i have the form not become visible until ALL of the contents and images inside are fully loaded?

I currently send a live video mix to a output screen (a form on a particular screen).Consider it like a really advanced version of PowerPoint. I call it a video control room for the pc. I want to take 30 frames a second from a screen (of my choice, I allow multiple screens) and the audio from the computer (stereo) set, save it to a hard disks. How do I do that? I know I can draw the image of the interface using the RenderTargetBitmap class, but How do I put those images (as frames) in an AVI file or push it to a video server? An SDK? or a Code Example to point me in the right direction, would be nice! I also want to capture the sound of the current Stereo mix, or microphone (as determined by the user).
