I have an application with a scrolling window of thumbnail images. On XP it works just the way I want it; as the user scrolls the thumbnails go flying by. But in Windows 7 the thumbnails stay put until the user releases the mouse button and the thumbnails jump to the correct position.
I've examined the properties of the control I'm using (I am actually using windows.systems.forms.form set to autoscroll) and there doesn't appear to by anything to activate live scrolling - besides that would likely be inconsisten between XP and Windows 7.
I was just wondering if there was a way with, using VB.net, be able to create a program to detect when a message is received in Windows Live Messenger, and alert the user?Essentially, MSN is minimized in background and our program, Program A, is also running in backgroung.Friend X sends us a message, the MSN icon blinks as usualy, but also a window pops up and shows the name of the user and the message.I was just wondering if there was a way to connect to MSN in some fom to be able to do this?
I want to make a program that tells you if you can login to an email account or not by entering their username and password into Windows Live.
It would connect to the Hotmail server and see if the user/pass combination is correct. If it can log in, it would display a label that the account is valid, if not it would say that the account is not valid.
Ok here's the totally incorrect code for logging in. I kind of borrowed it from sending an email:
Dim MyMailMessage As New MailMessage MyMailMessage.From = New MailAddress(TextBox1.Text) MyMailMessage.To.Add(TextBox1.Text)
I'm wanting to start some vb.net programming related entirely to msn/windows live messenger My first and only question is... is it possible to write and create messenger bots in vb.net and if so also have the feature for manual text feed...
I've been asked to develop a proxy server for Windows Live Messenger that would filter out inappropriate words and replace them with asterisks for example Is this doable If yes then where do I start ?
I have tried the search button to no avail. I am attempting to make a feedback form to open on Windows Live Mail. The user clicks the "feedback" item on a menu strip and it opens Windows Live Mail with Process.start("code here blah blah.exe"). What I want to do from this is force open a new message.
Is it possible to create something like the iphone scrolling on a windows, you could also say how google Maps scrolls. If so how would you think you would go about it?
Can I Post a Windows Application that uses Excel for live data calculations? Basically from the Windows app, a user makes a menu selection and which in turn opens an excel file in memory using it for calculations. These files are put together by different groups and formatted for the Windows app to build interfaces based on each file.I also accompany an .mdf file as well. Is all this possible for customers to access and run this with Windows Azure.
I really like the MSN notification popup. Basically the popup you see when you receive a new email etc. I'd like to put timers and set times so I, for instance, get a popup at 2PM saying "Don't forget..." I know I could make my own notification bubble but I'd prefer the WLM one.
I would like to create a tabular view of my data in which i would like to show dates as column header and room no as rows header. And room reservation data in that tabular form. I would also like to make date zooming from year, half yearly, month, week to day. Denote the reserved room in some color along with name too.
To my requirement, i found windows live mail's calendar control abit matching without zooming functionality.
Here is a sample of windows live mail's control: [URL]
I would like to get reference/example of control/project matching my requirement.

I'm not sure if I'm to post it here or in an other forum, but i will give it a try here So, as the title says: i want to add smooth scrolling text to my program. But i want to use java,php,xhtml or what else there is.I fund one example in the source to Mozilla FireFox 3.7 Alpha 5. The example is attached and is the file that contains the credits(.xhtml file in a .zip archive )
I guess i could just change the display-text to what ever i want, but i don't really know how to add it to my program.Well, take a look at the attached file and see what you can come up with(just open the file in your browser and it should start scrolling after a little while) Attached File(s)Credits.zip (6.07K)Number of downloads: 445
After scouring the articles online I have come up with this design for a winforms based touchscreen app that needs smartphone like scrolling. The app itself will run on a tablet laptop or touchscreen desktop.I put everything I want to scroll on a panel. Set autoscroll to true (which will show scrollbars)Now put this whole panel inside a groupbox.Shrink the groupbox until the scrollbars are hidden (visually hidden, not visible = false)
Now the fun part I am stuck at.I think I have to handle the mousedown, mouseup & mousemove on the panel to set the autoscrollposition so that when someone touches the panel and drags, it does it's scroll magic. Please help fill in the few lines of code in below method stubs. The msdn doc on autoscrollposition is very confusing since it returns negative numbers but needs to be set to positive with abs and what not.
Point mouseDownPoint; Point mouseUpPoint; Point mouseDragPoint;[code]......
I currently have a label scrolling text, But for some reason it only displays Certain song titles/text. Does Anyone know why?!

I am wanting to create a logon similar to the Windows Live logon, so in other words. user has frmLogon and is located in Australia. The user enters his/her details and then the program connects to a server in the United States and checks the Username and Password to make sure it is correct if it is correct it allows the user to logon and move to the next stage, if it is wrong it will give him an error message. I am wondering if anyone has a tutorial or source code laying around that I can rip apart and see how it works. I want to put the database on my server and connect to it from my desktop using the logon form.
I want to make a database of all the xbox live arcade arcade games on the xbox live marketplace, I need to parse an xml file and add the needed data from the xml node into a datagridview.Here is the xml file i need to use to grab links and other data about the game:
[URL]
Being the noob I am it took me about 6 hours to figure out how xml works and to write some code for what i need to do.
Here is what i came up with:
'for grabbing the name of the update Public Sub updatename() Dim xmldoc As New XmlDataDocument()
[code]....
That code works fine.Now when i add another column to the datagridview called "update size" i want to know how to add the grabbed data from another sub i made to the new column.What would the code be for adding the strings for the new sub into the seconds column? the first was, DataGridView1.Rows.Add(str)" . So what would the second be ?Also another question i have is how do i put an image in an imagecolumn by a web link, not a local picture.
I am working on moving applications from Windows 2000 to new server Windows 2003 R2(64 Bit). I noticed that there are some VB programs and config files for those programs have been placed in Windows 2000 Registry. Some other applications are using them from different servers.Why do we use registry here? How can i move these to registry in windows 2003? Can I just move these or do I have to write VB programs to place them in 2003 registry?
I have a .net Windows Service developed in VB.net. I have a settings file in the root directory called Connections.XML and I am setting the basedirectory [code]...
When I schedule the service this is working absolutely fine in my Windows XP machine. But when I installed the same service in our development server (Windows 2003 64 bit Server) for some reason it is not able to locate this file.
I'm developing a program which would be the only program user will use. What i mean by this is once the windows is up, my program will run and blocks users from accessing any other program installed or comes with Windows such as internet explorer, email client, games, etc.. unless user puts password for getting out of my program.
BTW, the OS will be Windows XP.What i want to accomplish by having this is like below:
1. No one would be able to use internet (= no virus)
2. No one would be able to change system time (= no record corruption)
3. No one would be able to install any program (= less system maintenance)
My program is Kind of interactive Kiosk program only certain user can access windows and other programs.Also when it comes to system maintenance, I will remotely access the computer using pcAnywhere or teamviewer like remote access tool.So after exiting the program, i should be able to use entire system w/o any restriction.
I made a custom media player for my work that uses a windows media player control and randomizes 4 songs from a collection. There is reasoning behind the 4 songs but thats not too important. So the issue is that I had made this program for my work but when i put it on my work computer, it wouldnt even open, i double click it, it sits for a bit, then MP3Randomizer.exe has encountered a problem. Any idea why it works on my 64 bit windows 7 personal laptop but not my 32 bit windows xp work comp. I have created programs on my laptop and then dragged them to my work computer and they worked just fine. Is it the windows media player component? Never had this problem with any of my other programs. The program was compiles with .net framework 4 and my work comp has .net framework 4 on it, it is set to compile as x86. I cant figure it out. A
I have this visual basic that calls a stored procedure. When I run it through visual studio on my local machine, it works fine. However when I move it to a server, it doesn't output any data from the sql. The page still loads, it just doesn't show any data in the labels. Any ideas why? [Code]
