Custom DateTimePicker Value Isn't Saved In Application Settings
Nov 24, 2011I want to save a Custom DateTimePicker.Value in my Application Settings. The custom format is : dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm:ss, instead of dd/MM/yyyy The field i've created in the application settings parameters is LASTSAVE (DATE / APPLICATION)
When I try to link in the ApplicationSettings/PropertyBinding ... VALUE with my field LASTSAVE, i have an error :
The Value '01/01/0001 00:00:00' is not valid for 'Value'. 'Value' mustbe ... 'MinDate' et 'MaxDate'.
Name of the parameter : Value
I then entered the MIN and MAX date in the properties of my control DATETIMEPICKER.
I have also put into the properties Value a start date like 23/11/2011 12:00:00 ;
However, when i retry to link in the ApplicationSettings/PropertyBinding ... value to LASTSAVE / I have the same error (The Value '01/01/0001 00:00:00' is not valid for 'Value'. ). I've saved all, do a process that put a value in the datetimepicker.value, but it's not saved, cause not linked.

View 2 RepliesChange Connection String Saved In My.Settings In Program?
Jan 30, 2012I am writting an application and I used Wizard to create DataSets which auto-created their own xml code. This code uses the saved in My.Settings Connection String. Being a setting with an unchangable 'Application' scope i cannot change its value at runtime.
The problem is that when I install the Application to my customer the Connection String will have to change (maybe more than once). So is there a way to change the Connection String used by these objects at runtime ?

FormClosing And Application.Exit Is Causing The MessageBox To Ask If Want To Exit Twice
Jun 12, 2007I'm having a bit of a problem getting my application to close properly. Basically I have one main form from which all other forms open. If a user tries to close that main form, I want to bring up a MessageBox asking if they want to exit the application.However, when I try to do that it asks the question twice. It seems that the Application.Exit() is triggering the FormClosing event again for some reason, but I don't know of another way to exit the application. BTW, the main form isn't the startup form so I can't use the option to close when the startup form closes.
View 9 RepliesSeveral IF Statements With Exit Sub Or Nested IF Statement Without Exit Sub?
Dec 9, 2011Now I have a sub to validate a bunch of textboxes and combo boxes.I previously used many IF statements to validate and pop up different messageboxes and Exit Sub in every IF statement.But I heard that too many Exits will decrease the efficiency and they were not recommended to use. Instead, nested IF is better because it will let the process naturally go to the end.Then I found out that if I use nested IF,it will be hard to read, since messageboxes are all separated from conditions.

View 5 RepliesMy.Settings.Upgrade Stopped Preserving Settings After Visual Studio And Framework Were Upgraded?
Jan 13, 2011The company has been using Visual Studio 2008 and .NET Framework 2.0 for approximately 2 years. During that time we released several versions (4.x.x) of our program to the public and were able to preserve the user's settings using My.Settings.Upgrade.During the past development cycle we upgraded the program to Visual Studio 2010 and .NET Framework 4.0 and changed the version to 5.x.x. Now, when a user upgrades from 4.x.x to 5.x.x they lose all of their settings.However, in all upgrades after that point (ie 5.0 to 5.1) all the user's settings are once again preserved.I checked C:Documents and Settings<USER_NAME>Local SettingsApplication DataCompanyName and it contains two directories:
ApplicationName_Url_aaa ApplicationName_Url_bbb
where aaa and bbb are 32 character strings. All of the user.config files for the 4.x.x releases can be found in the ApplicationName_ Url_aaa directory. All of the user.config files for the 5.x.x releases can be found in the ApplicationName_Url_bbb directory.Based on this information it seems like something changed when we converted our program to VS2010 and Framework4 that is now causing a different 32 character string to be generated. However, we have been unable to track it down.

Application.Settings VB 2005 - Save Arrays Using The Settings System Object
Jan 14, 2009I just wondered if you can or can't save arrays using the settings system object. There seems to be no way of entering it at designtime. It seems implied you cannot create new user settings.subobjects at runtime. I'm looking to find the easiest way to save a populated array of PictureBox's. If the only way is a self/custom made/managed .ini file then I need to know so i can start on that but I was hoping to use some of all this phaff in the new frameworks usefully.

VS 2008 Settings Are Read From App.config Instead Of Settings-file
Oct 30, 2009I have created a settings-file for my plug-in-based app. When the mainApp writes the settings to the file, the pluginApp should read the settings from the settings-file (when opening or at runtime even better), but somehow it reads the settings from the app.config-file. This means that the pluginApp never will read the settings according the values of the file.
