Custom Message Box (Form) Returns Result
Oct 16, 2009I've created a custom MessageBox (a Form), that has buttons Yes and No. There is a function popUp() to show the MessageBox. I would call the MsgBox in a parent as follows:
CustomMessageBox.popUp()
Now I want the message box to return a value:
Dim a as Intger = CustomMessageBox.popUp()
But this should only return once the user clicks a button in the message box.
My popup sub:
Dim thread As New Threading.Thread(AddressOf GetResult)
Public Function PopUp(Optional ByVal ErrorMessage As String = "", Optional ByVal Title As String = "", Optional ByVal ButtonType As ButtonType = ButtonType.OK, Optional ByVal MessageType As MessageType = MessageType.None)
[Code] .....
gotResult is a Boolean = false. It the user clicks a button gotResult is changed to true.
result is a integer containing the number of the button clicked.
When I run this code, the result is returned, even if the user doesn't click a button. I understand why, because the main thread of the form is not "paused" while the user has not clicked a button. How can I pause the message box itself, until a button was clicked?
I've tried this:
Public Function PopUp(Optional ByVal ErrorMessage As String = "", Optional ByVal Title As String = "", Optional ByVal ButtonType As ButtonType = ButtonType.OK, Optional ByVal MessageType As MessageType = MessageType.None)
[Code] .....
But now the whole message box is captured in a loop and the message box is like disabled, because it waits for the loop to end, so the user can't click anything.
VS 2008 Custom Dialog In A Class Library?
Mar 3, 2010It's been a while since I last posted something, but this attracted my attention. Since many of my programs share the same type of code, I decided to dump it all in a class library for other programs to use.
Now I have a problem, Windows Forms in a class library can't be displayed. There is no "Show(Dialog)" command, only some for event handling. All properties are gone as well. The only way I managed to display a form is by making it as a new variable: 'Dim f as windows.forms.form
But this won't work because of the enormous amount of handlers added to the original.
How can I show my (TextureBrowse in my case) Dialog so other programs can use it?

Applying Changes Before Setting Dialog Result Value?
Jan 19, 2011I have a dialog with an OK, Apply and Cancel button. I want the apply button to have the same effect as the OK button, but the dialog should not close. Can you stop the dialog from closing when you set a dialog result value (as I want to when clicking the Apply button)? Basically I have some settings that are passed into the constructor of the dialog. The dialog then updates its controls with these settings. At the moment any settings that are changed in the dialog are applied when the dialog closes via the OK dialog result (i.e. the code that calls the dialog also applies the changes). This is the way I would prefer it to happen, but the only way I can think of to get what I want to work is to apply the settings changes before I set the dialog result value (i.e. in the dialog code). This essentially makes dialogresult useless in my case as I cant use it to get the effect I am after.

Showing SQL Query Result In Message Box
May 25, 2011Is there a way to show the value retrieved by an SQL statement in a message box? In context, my SQL statement searches my database to find a customer record that matches the details entered into the text boxes on the form, and retrieves the CustomerID. Is there a way to show this CustomerID in a message box?
The SQL code is:
SELECT customerid
from customer
where cust_forename = @custforename and cust_surname = @custsurname and cust_house = @custhouse etc

Create Custom Dialog Box
Aug 5, 2010I'm creating an stock management application. At times I want to be able to search for a customer, location, or institution. I know how to do all of this, but what I really nee dot figure out is:How do I create/design a function that calls a form and has the user query information and then return that query's data, preferable datatable.Now, I've created the form that does all this and I have the dataTable but now I want to have a function that can call this "query form" and return that data.I was thinking I have to do something with multi-threading but maybe I'm just looking over something obvious. The best analogy of what I want to do is to create a custom dialog box, but obviously instead of returning a simple integer I'd be returning a dataTable.
View 5 RepliesVS 2008 Custom Dialog Box?
Nov 5, 2010I am writing a program and I need a way for the user to input information into a pop up screen, i.e. may be up to 10 settings for the program. I have looked at using a parent and child form but it seems somewhat difficult to pass data between forms. I have also looked at custom dialog boxes but it seems like there would be an easier way? Is there a way that a form or similar box could pop up when a button on form1 was pressed and then the user could make the needed selections and then click ok on form 2. This would then save the selections to some global variable that could be accessed by form1 after form 2 has been closed?
View 2 RepliesAuto-generate Custom Number For Database In Asp.net Vb
Jan 27, 2012I would like to generate a tracking number as primary key for my database.
There will be total 12 letters for each tracking id. Example: 2012010001-1
The "2012010001-1" is actually from combination YYYYMMxxxx-v where YYYY is the current year, MM is the current month, xxxx is the auto generate number(increment) and -v is the version where it can be -2 -3 but using the same YYYYMMxxxx.
For both YYYYMM is not a prob as i can get the value from Date.Today.Month/Date.Today.Year. But how am I going to ensure the xxxx is an auto increment but will be reset back to 0000 every new month.
For example:
2012010000-1 (Month January, so start from 0000)
2012010001-1
2012010002-1

How To Generate Custom Report In Specific Format
Dec 14, 2011I am working on a simple window application (VS2010,VB.NET). It's an HR management App - Employees records.I need simply insert/edit Employee Info, reports in Excel (with out crystal reports) & Show in Grid.So I am thinking of using Telerik RAD WinForms (2011) only because it looks cool. But I also know that Telerik could be a real pain when you need more flexibility.Although my application is quite basic still I want to determine whether I should go with Telerik or just use standard Windows Forms functionality? How can I generate custom report in specific format.Also It would be nice if some one point me to some sample application or VB.NET windows Tutorials?

View 2 RepliesCreating A Custom Font Dialog?
May 17, 2011I'm having a bit of trouble with my project here... and Google isn't helping very much. To put it briefly, I'm currently making a sticky note program (one fairly similar to Sticky Notes, for those of you familiar with Windows Vista or 7). It's relatively simple, as the "note" itself is basically a glorified Rich Text Box.
My problem is this: I obviously want to allow some for some customization with the font, however I don't want to use a standard full-on Dialog Box. So I designed a small form with 2 Combo Boxes--one for font and the other for size--and 2 buttons, "OK" and "Cancel". What I'm attempting to do is program this form (named dlgFont) to more or less be recognized as a Font Dialog Box. I've got some of it figured out I think, but I can't seem to put the pieces together in a way that actually works.In the code for my main form, I have this within the Class... stuff:
Friend WithEvents dlgFont As System.Windows.Forms.FontDialog
As for the Command Button that pulls up the dialog box itself, well, it's actually a Context Menu Strip Item... I'm not really sure what to put. So far I've only tried this:
dlgFont.ShowDialog
And for the Apply event, I've got the generic stuff:
Private Sub dlgFont_Apply(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles dlgFont.Apply
If dlgFont.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
Me.Font = dlgFont.Font
End If
End Sub
That's all I have for the main form. This is what dlgFont looks like: 'A limited-ability font dialog box.
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Friend Class dlgFont

Custom Dialog - Pick Properties ?

Am I going about this completely the wrong way, or what?
