I have an annoying issue whereby a MessageBox is being displayed behind my splash screen. As the MessageBox is waiting for acknowledgement (that there is a validation issue, and thus leading to termination), the program gives the appearance of having hung on the splash screen.[code]...
View 11 RepliesI added a splash screen to my program, using the default one and just changing some of the information on it like copyright etc and rezized the form a bit. I set it to to start centre screen. I am not sure if I did any other changes.When it ran it came up with this error for the line I have added. I got it to copy the detail to clip boardif I specify the splash screen as none again, my program runs so something must be wrong with it
Here is the line that errors and the message.
Version.Text = System.String.Format(Version.Text, My.Application.Info.Version.Major, My.Application.Info.Version.Minor)

I have a Splash screen setup and working fine. I have error checking to detect if a specific USB device is connected with a message box having the user to check the device if not detected. This all works fine.In testing, my splash screen doesn't allow the focus to change to my message box error when said device is not connected. So it just looks like the splash screen is stuck. I'd like the focus to change to my message box error IF it comes up.

View 3 RepliesMy objective is to have a splash screen that displays a status and steps a progress bar. I have created a custom splash screen form with all the controls that I require. Note: This form has not been designated
as the splash screen in the application settings. I tried that earlier and it got me nowhere. On the main form's load event I show the splash screen. All that seems to work. What doesn't work is getting an update to the splash screen. Actually the function gets called and the label control text gets changed
(I think) but the splash screen never shows the update. I have tried to refresh the control and the form itself but that doesn't work. After spending all morning on the search engines I tried using a delegate but that doesn't seem to

I'm using the SplashScreen template. I've added the code in various places. Either the code will delay the splash screen from showing, then it flashes up for half a second, or the code will do nothing.

View 4 RepliesI need that my application have a splash screen, this splash must update a label with messages that i sent from the main form constructor, in the end of the constructor i need to close the splash, the splash must accept key presses, so if the user press some keys I'll show the login screen, by default the login it's the same of the machine, and this is useful for debugging/tests purposes.Basically i need to send text to another thread, and get a boolean value from the same thread to know if the user pressed the correct combination of keys to show the login form.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to accomplish something fairly simple in VB that I do everyday in JavaScript.I need to parse text between two strings (HTML tags mainly) that have multiple occurrences.
Sample Data:
<tag>test</tag>
<tag>test2</tag>
<tag>test3</tag>
If I wanted to grab the data in the 2nd <tag> in JavaScript I would simply do this:
var result = string.split('<tag>')[2].split('</tag>')[0];
And the only way I seem to get that to work in VB looks like this...
Dim from = string.IndexOf("<tag>")
Dim [to] = string.IndexOf("</tag>", from)
Dim result = string.Substring(from + "<tag>".Length, [to] - from - "<tag>".Length)
I have a splash screen set using the Application Framework. In my main form, I check for some conditions in Load() event of the MainForm and display a MsgBox if some of them fails.
But the problem is, the MsgBox comes below the Splash Screen.
