Forms :: Pass Value From One Form To Another Form In .net Windows Form?
Jan 22, 2011
how to pass value from one form into another form...? for example if i have 1 mdiform and 2 form (form1, and form2) for load form1 i'm using system.reflection.assembly here is the code for load form1 :
Imports System.Reflection
Private Asm As Assembly
Private FrmNama As Form
Public Function GetForm(ByVal FormName As String) As Form
[code]....
after form1 load i call form2 from form1 and from form2 i want pass value, here is the code from form2 to pass value into form1 :
form1.textbox1.text = textform2.text
why value from form2 can't fill into textbox1 in form1?
I'm upgrading a project from VB6 to VB2008.I have a routine that clears a combo box, named 'cmbDataTable' which could be on any form. I pass the form and the combo box is cleared.
[code]...
I assumed it would be the same in VB2008 but I get the error.'cmbDataTable' is not a menber of 'System.Windows.Forms.Form'I am working my way through the project, first updating the global procedures - this is one - I haven't written the calls so cmbDataTable doesn't yet exist.
I have a form being called form several forms using ShowDialog().
1. Is there a way for called form to know which form called it by receiving a code or key from the calling form?
2. The calling form has a gridview. How can the called form pick up a column's value from the currently highlighted row in gridview in the calling form?
I have one form, which the user enters upto 5 websites then clicks go - I have on the second form, the one with the webbrowser. A timer which checks if the web browser is busy then either a green light or black image will be shown along side the assocaited input box on the first form.I am finding it impossible to feed variables into the clock through ByVal, like I would a subroutine or function.
Private Sub ActiveMe_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ActiveMe.Tick If ((WebBrowser1.IsBusy)) Then Hey.BackColor = Color.Black[code]....
'Error message says Hey is not declared, as i can't pass it through to timer
The variable Hey is determined by the first form - Which picturebox.I have an if statement which simply says if inputbox one has url enter then Hey = Picturebox1, If input box2 has url entered then Hey= Picturebox2 etc.What I want is the timer to check the page has completed loading or is still loading or refresing and the appropriate green or black to be shown aside url input box on first form.I considered using a sub or procedure to act as a clock (a large for loop with another for loop within it, acting as a delay). But found this slowed down theapp to the point of crashing it.
I want to pass variables from one form to an other. The variables i I need in the second form( called" Hulsview") are :" hulsbreedte" and" hulslengte". To check if the varibles are passed I added a textbox in the second form,called" hulsview" to check the variable" hulsbreedte". The value selected in the combobox on on form1" hulsbreedte = HulsBreedte1.SelectedValue" returns always 0 in the textbox on de second form.
Here is the code form1: Imports System.Drawing.Drawing2D Public Class Form1 Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form Public hlb As Point 'not used [Code] ..... I am using vb express 2010.
My problem is that is have 4 forms, 3 of these forms allow me to pass variables between them.. however one form the Booking form won't allow me to pass the txtTotal variable to the Confirmation Form.
All the other forms all me to do this, im not doing anything different i can see... im thinking that perhaps another part of the form is prohibiting me from passing that txtTotal to the Confirmatin form.[code]...

Public Class Confirmation Private Sub btnBack_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnBack.Click

FormA contain a textbox for user to enter their name and a button. When the user click the button, it will show the FormB which contain the CrystalReportViewer. I would like to to display the name which the user enter in the textbox on FormA on the CyrstalReportViewer.
The question is, how do I pass the textbox value to the Crystal Report Viewer The secondary question is how I am going to display the value on the Crystal Report Viewer.For you information, I am using VB.net.
I'm trying to program in a true object oriented manner and its causing me to re-learn a few things. Specifically, I'm having some trouble with error handling. I have all of my data access being performed by an adapter class in a seperate project. I can catch duplicate records without any problems, but I want to be able to send a message back to the user. Here's what I have so far:
I am creating a windows application which required Dynamic Connection String in the app starting (user need to provide db credentials through a form), After entering the connection credentials user redirected to new win form Everything is working fine but how can I pass my dynamic connection to another form.I tried to save it to App variable but I couldn't (I think its read only) Also I tried save it to registry but can't retrieve values.Is there any other option available ? like writing & retrieving ConString to a text file or XML.
how could i pass the value from Independent form to a child form..in my declaration from MDIParent form i declared child form as frmSMRP then in the frmSMRP i have declare one new form as form1
here is my code below.declaring child form under MDIParent form
I would like to know if its possible to start up a second windows forms inside the parent form. Ex: A button is pressed and a new form is showed. I would like to keep that new form inside the parent form, and have it not be able to go outside the parent form.
When I add a new, empty form to my VB.NET VS9 project, the linenherits System.Windows.Forms.Formis missing.What am I doing wrong here?I thought it would be added automatically.I experienced that some thing get weird if this line is not there (Form_Load is not firing, I think).
I have one form Form1, which opens another form Form2 from within one of its procedures.Now Form2 needs to do some processing of data, and populate a list. The user selects a value in this listthe value back to the already open Form1 (not to a new instance of Form1). How do I accomplish this?I think I will need to define and raise events for this, but I don't know how to go about it.
I know this has been asked, but can someone look this over. I have been going over and over this for about 3 days now. In my main form(frmBuildings) I pass a value to frmCustomerInformation like this.[code]...
When working with a collection of forms that the user must step through, is it better to pass the data foward when creating a new instance of that form, or is it better to call a function from the previous form? I have some code written that calls the previous routine, and it looks ugly, and I can't quite think of a reason why it was done that way. The only reason I could come up with was if the data was large, and there was a good chance that the user wouldn't use the data except in a special case.
[Code] I want like to check if a file exist on main form, if not: force open settings form. And then when the user is closing the form with exit button = check if the file exist again. If it doesn't exist, close application. It's a huge application and I need optimized on most parts. Also, the settings form is asking the closing question two times.
For a while i have been playing a guessing game with this line of code.
If Sdown = True And Shooter.Top >= Me.ClientRectangle.Height Then Shooter.top += Shooterspeed End If
Basically i have a shooter on the form and whenever i press the down key the shooter moves down the form and disappears off of the bottom of the form. I have been trying to get this to stop for some while.
I have a program that uses two forms. The program opens to the Main form, and the user can navigate to the other form from the Main form through use of a button. Here's the way I've currently written it: When the Main form loads, it declares and instantiates the other form during the load procedure. When the user presses a button, the second form is displayed by means of the ShowDialog method. On the second form, there is a Return to Main Screen button which closes the second form, bringing the user back to the Main form.
So, here's the structure of the code:
Code: Public Class frmMainForm
Dim frmSecondForm As New SecondForm
Private Sub btnSecondForm_Click(blah, blah, blah) Handles blah, blah, blah
[CODE]...
Here's my reasoning: Originally, I wrote the code so that a new instance of the second form was created every time the button was pressed. The problem was that whatever data was displayed on the second form, previously, was lost when the user returned to it a second time. Since the user would be switching back and forth between these forms, frequently, I needed that data to persist.
What is the best practice for accomplishing this:
1) Declare and instantiate the second form on program start, as I have done, and use the button simply to show the form?
2) Declare and instantiate the second form each time the button is pressed but maintain the variables on the Main form and pass them ByRef to a custom constructor for the second form? Is this even possible?
In the main form the user can choose to download information from a device.Since this request takes time, when "download information" is pressed I open new form in a separate thread: Private Sub RunDownload()
I'm making a program like PostIt! Well, i want to make a model form, and copy that form as many times i want.I think it works with something like frmPostit1 = frmModel.clone()
