Have To Save To See Design Changes At Runtime
Mar 23, 2012
Just started with VS2010. (vb)
Coming from VS2005. (i skipped VS2008)
My question is this. Why do I have to hit save before every build in order to see design changes at runtime? Example: I change the text on a button at design time. I click on run and the text does not reflect the change. But if I saved the form before clicking run, than it does. Also like to add VS2010 runs much slower compared to VS2005 running on the same computer. I understand VS2010 can do more, but a lot of times you don't need it to.

In some of the forms ,whenever i change some properties using the Properties Window of some controls or the form they get reflected in the Properties Window but will not get changed at Run Time.
I am facing this in quite many of the forms, hence i am applying the property changes in form load, this is causing performance breach .

Converted an VS 2003 VB Application to Visual Studio 2010. Conversion seemed to work great. Having trouble with the Backcolor of buttons. In design mode they are a light gray (I have them set to transperent and they are on a VBPowerPack.Blend Panel) - but in Runtime they turn the correct color (Steel Blue). How do I get design time to look the same as runtime? Also, they stay light grey in run time if I check Enable XP Styles. Makes me feel better to see the same colors at Design time

I have a question regarding the manipulation of a form at runtime. Let's say I created a simple form in the form designer before runtime containing a couple of buttons, text boxes and labels. While the program is running, I would like to change properties of these controls, while having the ability to move them around, along with the addition of newer controls, say a listbox.
After the form is 're-designed', I would like to save the new settings of my form, in either a database or settings file. Whats the best way to implement this?

For some reasons that I don't understand all my design changes won't show up when I hit F5 and run the application. I can put how many new fields and labels with som "hello" text that I wont but they are not displayed at runtime. But all database changes the report i connected to will be displayed.
How can that be? What is wrong with my report when all datachanges runs thru but not my design changes?
I am using VS 2008 and the built in crystal report and viewer.

In a VB.NET winform App I want to place icons on each tab header of a TabControl.I set the ImageList property of the TabControl and for each Tab I set the ImageKey property.My icons show as expected on each tab at design time within the IDE but when I run the App, my icons don't show (an empty space is shown instead).

I have a small dataset which has most of its schema defined at design time, but I add a few columns to one of its tables at runtime. My problem is how do I reset those changes? he dataset is not linked to any datasource. It just has its own table which I "manually" populate. The static columns have been added to the datatable at design time. However, I add a few columns as runtime based on a list of categories. Like this:
[Code]....
The dataset is used in a small dialog that pops up within my application. I add the dynamic columns when the dialog is opened by using the Load event. Everything works great the first time. But if you close the dialog and reopen it, there are problems. My startup routine tries adding the dynamic columns again, but an error is thrown saying the column already exists. I have tried a lot of things and did some reading but I can't figure out a way to reset the dataset when the dialog is closed. The only solution is to close the whole application and reopen it. I have tried the following in the Leave event of the dialog form:

I've created an SQL Query using the query builder. In the query builder, you can test the query by clicking the button "Execute Query", and entering the desired values in the parameter fields.
My query returns the correct results when I do this, but when I seemingly pass the same values at runtime, I get 0 records returned.The query is designed such that you can pass nulls if you don't wish to filter data by that particular parameter.
SQL Query:
SELECT ID, UPC, Quantity, Manufacturer, Style, Color, Size, Category, DateReceived, Cost, OriginalRetail, Retail, LocationID
FROM Inventory
WHERE (UPC = @UPC OR
[code]....
In the query builder "Execute Query" dialog, I enter a value I know that the db contains in the "Size" field, "1/1/1900" & "1/1/2199" in Dates A & B, respectively, and nulls for all other fields. This returns 1 record, which is just as I expected. It works correctly.But when I pass the same values into the method created by the designer, I get 0 records returned. I can't figure out where the problem lies. Even if I enter nulls for all fields other than the dates, it returns 0. This tells me that the dates are causing the problem, but I can't figure out why, because I'm passing strings equivalent to what I entered in the query builder.

I created primary/start up Form for my VB2005 app (called Admin.vb). Now when I go back to the solution explorer, I can see Admin.vb but it doesn't have the form icon and clicking it doesn't open the form. Instead it opens the code.All of my other forms are fine and have the right icons and open in the [Design] view ...The form obviously still exists as it opens in runtime but I can't seem to open the design view for it.

I am creating a custom Label control (by simply Inheriting the standard Label control and re-painting the background and text) because I need a very specific background and border. In the constructor of the control, I set the AutoSize property to false so I can have a standard default size for the new label.
Public Sub New()
/*Set the default size of the control to 75x24*/
Me.Height = 24
[code]....
In my application that uses this control, if I create the new custom label at run time (in code), the AutoSize property stays False, and it works properly.If I try to add the new custom label to my form at design time, it comes in with the AutoSize property set to True, and I have to manually set it to False in the properties window. It's not a huge problem, but I don't understand why the behavior is different.

New to reports here. Using VB.NET, my application makes use of datatables it creates from a postgresql database.These datatables are defined at runtime rather than design-time, and I would like some way of generating reports from these datatables at runtime as well.
Should I be trying to create the report template at design-time, and then "binding" a datatable to it at runtime?

Dim reader As String = My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText(Application.StartupPath() & "ConfigDevs.txt")
Dim strs() As String = Split(reader, Environment.NewLine)
For Each s As String In strs

I work on 1 application which have included MS SQL database. So far, i manage to connect my database and putt it on form with Infragistics UltraWinGrid, create report in Stimulsoft Raports and also export all data from grids in Excel.

To be precise, after i update datas in runtime, and click save, my msgbox show that data is saved but after rerun in database is only datas that i putt manually trough SQL Manager. I have no clue how to save data in runtime, and after second rerun to show me data i putt in runtime. [Code]

I'm making a video editor program and I'm getting kinda stumped at the save portion, I've worked with openfiledialog so I figured save would be sorta the same. What I'm doing is adding files(music,videos, and pics) to a flowlayoutpanel. I just don't know how to save those controls made at runtime, this code is my import code. It's pretty much the same for music, video and pics with the exception being the format and openfiledialog being used:

Here are some important facts:
This code works (no Error 1004 on numerous laptops and desktops) A couple of months ago it began to fail (Error 1004 reared it's ugly head) on a couple of machines. The users claim that nothing changed - I can neither confirm nor deny accuracy of these claims. All users, except one, are running Windows XP and Office 2003. The problem also surfaced on a new machine running Windows XP and Office 2007. I could not force the error on my development/test machine - Windows XP with Offic 2003. It fails every time on another machine I have running Vista with Office 2007
The following is the code that causes me the problem. I know the error is raised on the WB.Save statement. I added the error trap to eliminate the problem of the Excel file being unaccessable without a reboot, due to the fact that Windows thought Excel still had it open.
Public Sub ExportCostAnalysis(ByVal RunMode As String)
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
As dao.Recordset
