Raise Event When A File Is Opened?
Jan 17, 2010I want to monitor for when a file is opened(movies that I open with a media player) and raise an event when that happens. I figure i've got 2 options: the first is monitoring the filesystem for a change in 'last accessed' property of the file- not good, since it doesn't change immediately. And second,monitor for when a process of the player is launched, and get the info from the titlebar. How can I do that ?

View 7 RepliesClosing Form After Large XML File Is Opened?
Oct 21, 2011I'm working through an example in a programming book and stumbling across a problem that I can't seem to figure out. The program in question is basically a very basic 'level viewer' for a tile based bitmap game (its a game creation book). The source code from the author was written for Visual Studio 2005, and I am using 2010. The source code imports fine and the program runs correctly.
I built the same program on my own, starting from scratch in VS2010. The program works like this: It opens a tile set palette (bitmap form), then uses an XML file to create a 'level'. The XML file indicates which tile goes where on the 'level'. The XML file is roughly 1.9MB and has roughly16,000 entries (the program creates a level that is 4096 x 4096 pixels using 32 x 32 pixel tiles).
Running and closing the program from source code runs exactly as expected. Running the program from my version runs exactly as expected. Closing it does not. It basically hangs up for about 2 minutes on close. (for reference every loads in about 3 seconds). I've determined that it is the XML file that is causing the problem by excluding the portion where it loads the XML. In that case it closes fine. If I cut it down to just a few records, my program closes fine as well. So it seems like the program is having trouble dumping the XML document at close.
I've tried to track down any differences between the source code and my code, and the only thing that I have found is that the References in mine are all using .NET version 4.0 and the references in the source are using mostly 2.0 and some 3.5 (System.Data.DataSetExtensions, System.XML.Ling.dll, and System.Core.dll)
The code for the entire form is:
Imports System.Xml
Public Class Form1
Public Structure tilemapStruct

Handle Click Event Of Several Controls?
Jul 22, 2011I have a mouse click event for one of my controls. I then change the text of that control to something. I also have several other textboxes and want to do the same. How can this be done? I thought maybe this:-
Private Sub txtTitle_MouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles txtTitle.MouseClick, txtTitle2.MouseClick
End Sub
My problem is how do I determine which has triggered the event (title1 or title2).

View 6 RepliesHow To Handle A DataError Event With Datagridview
May 18, 2009I cannot Unresolve a post.I have a datagridview control with a combo box. The user loads data from a file into the control. If there are errors (the element in the combo box column is not in the combo box list) I would like to:
1. capture the row in which the error occurred, and store it in code/memory
2. change the cell backround to red (this is not that important)
3. continue without a message at the time of the error
4. post a message with all of the errors after the load is complete
I am using the code staight out of the Microsoft example to try to figure how to do this, but it is not posting any messages when I load bad data, so I am not getting any smarter from the example.[code]
How To Handle Enter KeyPress Event
Jul 19, 2010I am using the Event Handler below for the Enter Key Press Event, it is running when ever any of the keys is pressed. This is not so much a problem when the app. is running, unnecessary yes. It is giving me problems when ever I am Debugging using Breakpoints. How can I change the Handler so it only runs when the Enter Key is Pressed, doing away with the If statement?

Run A Sub From A Form That Has Not Been Opened
Nov 29, 2009If I need to run a sub from another form, I would normally do something like this:
DirectCast(Application.OpenForms("frmTest"), frmTest).PublicSub()
How would I run the sub if the user never opened the form? The form is an options form and it may not be opened by the user if they opt out of changing the default values. I don't want to change the location of the sub because the sub relies on a lot of info on that form.
I tried Google and playing around with intellisense, but I've come up with nothing so far.
