Getting The Windows Application To Run In The Centre Of The Screen?
Jul 7, 2009
At the moment when i run my form1.vb program it runs in the top left of my screen, when i save it as an application and then open it from a shortcut will it still do this or will it open in the centre of the screen? In the designer it is in the top left of the screen, is there a way to move it here? as my assumption (which is probably wrong) is that the position it is in the designer is the position it is as an application? Is that right? and if it is how to i change the position in the designer?

I am developing an application for an emergency services organisation using VB 2008 that will enable users to select a map zone of a city centre and plot icons onto it, then save/export the layered map with icons as an image.My problem at the moment is that I am struggling developing the point where the user imports in the icon (for example, a flame icon where a fire started) and drags it around the map within the picture box to the required area.I want them to be able to select their desired icon from a series of commandbuttons and for the icon to 'appear' on the picturebox and be enabled to be dragged around and dropped as required. The organisation already has such a thing working in Microsoft Word (!) and that uses the ActiveDocument.Shape.LoadImage function on a pushbutton to import the icon and then it is placed on the map as required, but this is really unreliable for them.I dont even know if you can layer images onto an existin picturebox within an application in this way and then export as a flat image.

FormA calls DialogB where user cancels DialogB which exits via ForceTermination(), see insert.Caller FormA check for DialogResult not = OK, which it isn't, and I can see this in debug as Abort(3).However, the code continues merrily along its way until I get a 'null reference' error which I'm trying to avoid via Force Termination().This is caused by the user cancelling DialogB, a selection process to get a database (SQL) instance.[code]

I am making a program that will put a black mask over an application (like a full screened game). This black mask will fade in and out, depending on certain criteria. Is there a way I can do that with VB? It's to help me dim my monitor without having to push anything.

I have a panel, 80 pixels wide and 720 pixels high. However, this panel will stretch to whatever height the user's display is at as the form border style is none and the form is set to maximise.
Inside the panel I have another panel, 78 pixels wide and 400 pixels high. As the form loads, how do I centre the nested panel?
x = Panel1.Width / 2 - Panel5.Width / 2
y = Panel1.Height / 2 - Panel5.Height / 2
If Panel5.Height < Panel1.Height Then

Basically I currently have the following code which enables me to print the form perfectly.
CODE:
However, with the coding above on the print preview the form screen shoot/dump isn't centred. So I was wondering what would be the way to go about doing it? This is using the printform in the power packs available btw.
Also I figured it might be using height/width/location/margins etc, but I'm not to sure how one goes about assingning values to them. Like the two above I commented don't work.

I am writing a Media Centre Addin in Vb.net and it was all going good until i got to the point where i want to find the "Currently Playing song FilePath or URl"I have spend a number of hours racking my brain to figure out a way of seeing what the "Currently Opened Files" are on a machine at any point of time.
My idea is to get all the currently opened files, and then filter the Extensions from these and find the media item that is currently playing, and get the filepath.Does anyone know how i can do this? and what methods or classes or Librarys i should be looking at or importing In..

I was trying to figure out the cause for this . What i understand is :
1. .net starts splash screen in different thread.
2. Someway when main form load event is finished or about to finish , then splash screen is disposed.
Now in this case , i think dispose method of the splash screen gets fired from the main form , even when splash screen initialization is not finished yet.

BTW this issue occurs in any MS office program when the VB.Net (or even VBA) is processing information.Example: In Excel, a worksheet is displayed on the screen. I start either, a VB.Net or VBA procedure and within 30 seconds the Excel worksheet (previously displayed) blanks out. In both VB.Net and VBA,ScreenUpdating = False. My expectation is that the previously displayed screen would stay static as if I left my desk to get a cup of coffee; came back and the same ole Excel worksheet was still there?Of course, setting VBA Screen Updating = False accomplishes two goals: 1) speeds up processing and 2) saves the user from seeing unnecessary "garbage-processing" steps.Why does VBA or VB.Net ScreenUpdating = False not freeze the screen at the time of its invoking?

I am calling the OTA API from HP Quality Centre and one of the calls requires sending a NULL. This is the actual line of code:
stepF.AddItem(NULL)
This works perfectly in VBA and VB6 but VB.NET doesn't accept Nulls. Anyone know how to fix such an issue?

I have a tough situation that I don't really know how to code. I have one main list of point that contains all the points on a picture that are black.(1point=1pixel) I need to group all the black pixels that are less than 15(more or less) pixels away from each other into one Separate list. In the end I want about 5 lists.
What I said above is what I think is best to detect the centre of a shooting target. This information is just for those who think they know a better way. Each card has 5 targets on it and I need to detect the centre of each target. Ignore the sticker on the top target, in all cases the top one will look like the rest.

Some programs display a window, like some antivirus programs, at the windows welcome screen. This is before anybody has logged in.I want to do the same thing. I am creating a security program that can be used for maybe a library to monitor the computer and/or block webpages (That's another thread!).Anyhow, how would I be able to have my program run before anybody logs on. Would it have to be a Windows Service? How could I get it to be running in safe mode, too.

I am writing a simple password self service app that allows users to change their password and unlock their accounts. My last step is to figure out how to get it on the login screen. Basically so users can run it before logging in (necessary because this
is to help if their passwod is lost or account disabled). I've seen screenshots of commercial apps putting it on this screen and/or the actual login box (like in XP) but I cant find any information on how to do this.

We are running XP workstations in an Active Directory domain. I used gpedit.msc to setup a startup script that launchs Spy++. This works, and just before the login screen comes up, Spy++ pops up. The only problem is, the Spy++ window then goes away just before the login window loads.
I want to use Spy++ to find the attributes of the XP (Active Directory) login window. Is there a way to do this?
