Feb 10, 2009
I want to do is make a notification system, kind of like aim were a new little box will show up to alert the user of a couple different things.
This is how far i have gotten :
Dim popups As ArrayList
Public Sub newEvent(ByVal title As String, ByVal description As String)
popups.Add(New Form())
[CODE].........
I use an arraylist because i dont know how many messages will come around the same time, but i could switch to an array if i must. this is the form that i made as kind of a template :
[CODE]..........
Its just got a couple text boxes for now. how can i make these new forms every time i have a new message to display and the clean up after them when they are done.

I need to create a notification system for my application that will alert the user once new items have been sent to their queue, which is made of up database entries. The latter part of this question may need to be asked in the database forum, but I guess we'll figure that out First, since I haven't created anything like this before, I need some direction on what the best possible solution would be.The notification system should always be running and work independently of the main app. With this requirement, I thought a Windows Service would be best.
The notification itself will just be a quick form that alerts the user. I'm sure most of that will be fairly easy to create. The only issue I'm wondering about is how to constantly check the database and determine a new record has been inserted.Would a windows service have a timer or something that allows me to constantly check?If it does, how would I determine a new record has been inserted?

I am a sys admin for a company and our programmer left several months ago. a program they wrote is now failing and i am struggling to work out why. the program basically pulls data from a csv file into a readable form, written in visual basic. the application works on a couple of machines but not on a couple of others. i have matched up .Net framework versions, MS Primary Interop Assembly versions, still no joy. As the app works on some pc's i am wondering what other differences could cause this?
The error output is:
see the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.
Exception Text
CODE:
JIT Debugging
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this application or computer (machine.config) must have the jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section. The application must also be compiled with debugging enabled.
For example:
CODE:
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer rather than be handled by this dialog box.

In fact, the process is being written into a library to be pulled in from other applications. However, how do I provide a way for a WinForm to subscribe to the process to update as the process gets executed? I've open this question from both VBA/VB6 and .Net because its part of the gamut for UI development.It's also worth mentioning that these are subroutines and not classes that are running the methods, so event raising appears to be out of the question.[code]

I have a small application in which I need to show alerts if a particular condition is met. I have an mdi form and several child forms. Now the best way to show an alert is to show a tooltip on the right side corner of my mdi form. Though this works, but the problem is I want user to close the tooltip once he has read. Now the tooltip that vb.net provide does not support click events. If I give a long time duration the tooltip would be open all the time and if I give a short duration then it will close quickly. What can I do ?

I am struggling with this issue for serveral days now.My application needs to work like wsus (windows updates) does. On a certain event triggered by a windows service working under SYSTEM account it needs to show a (second) form under the user context.The IPC Remoting works fine so I think my issue is in the threading.When I use form2.Show() form2 appears but the form freezes.When I use form2.ShowDialog() the form appears but I cannot get the focus on it.
Service running under system account (in this example a simple console application)
Code:Imports ClassLibrary1Module Serv
Sub Main() Dim SDSIPC As Semaphore = CType(Activator.GetObject (GetType(ClientFromServer), "ipc://Client/SreeniRemoteObj"), Semaphore)
SDSIPC.DoSomething()

Normally I just redirect to a custom error page in on the Application_Error event, but I have a specific error for which I'd like to display an alert message while the user is still on the page which triggers the error. How can I make this happen?
I'm open to a modalpopup or any other type of error message, I just want to ensure the user stays on the page where they encounter the error.
This is in reference to this thread: [URL]
Here is the code I'm currently using:
Sub Application_Error(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)

In Global.asax, is there a way to handle SQL Timeouts elegantly, and display a message on the requesting page explaining the error? I know Global.asax has the Application_Error and Error events, but I'm not sure which (if any) I could use to accomplish this.
Related, can I access the page instance which raised the error that Global.asax is handling?

I am implementing a chat client in an application. Conversation windows are tabbed and I have to alert the user for new messages. My temporary solution was like this:
There is a timer with 500ms interval ( always running ).
For Each t In SuperTabControl3.Tabs
If TypeOf t Is SuperTabItem Then
If t.Tag = "1" Then
[Code]....
Will this cause performance issues? I have no possibility to try on an older computer but they will use this application on slow pc's.

i'm currently using VB.net 2005 with an Oracle 10g db.1. Alert the Admin by displaying on the main page a list of users who are due for re-certification if there are any. - I've managed to do this except my date calculation for the alert is wrong. When a user is certified say on 25-06-2010, they will be up for re-certification in 25-06-2011. I need my program to start alerting the Admin a MONTH before the user is due for re-certification. So basically start the alert on 25-05-2011.Currently this is my logic in VB.
Reason = Get value in Reason field (If this field is not empty, then don't raise alert for this record)
Renewal = Get the re-certification date
Sysdate = Get current system date
[code]...
Alert the Admin via email - I've managed to create an email (stored procedure in Oracle) that contains the skeleton. I say skeleton because althought the mail executes fine, I've not managed yet to include the list of users due from the db. I created a Curser and dumped my results in there, but not sure what to do after that.

I am having an applciation running in system tray notification area, but the problem is that although I exit the application the icon is still there, when I point my mouse near notification area it's gone as it should be when I clicked on exit. I guess it is because my mouse position makes the area to refresh, if so, how can I do it inside my application to avoid having my useless icon in there?

I'm trying to create a program that when I press the X or _ buttons on the form it minimizes to the notification area(system tray). I did find some stuff but didn't understand were to put the code I just have some basic knowledge in VB.net. What I read was something about the formclosing event
Private Sub frmMain_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized
e.Cancel = True
'Me.Visible = False
End Sub
and well it sort of works to what I want but don't know were to go from there.. what I read from another post was that I had to do something with "NotifyIcon Class" but still didn't know what to do with that or where to put the code.
Basically what I want the program to do is minimize to system tray and a tooltip will pop up when I hover my mouse over it and display something that I want. Also when I right click the icon I would like some options to be displayed so that I could program it to close.

Multi threading in vb.net, in one of our program I provided an automatic error notification system that gives alert to my email when an exception error is occurred. The error notification includes the name of the form, the exception error details, the event name and the screenshot of the software during that particular instant.
