I need to make a button invisible at the start up of a VB form. However, when text is entered into an input textbox the button needs to become visible without a click event procedure. When the button to enter the text from the textbox into an array is clicked the button needs to become invisible again unitl more text is entered into the box, repeating the cycle. I have found related topics but they don't cover this.

I'm curious if it is possible to hide a group of text boxes from view in a form until a particular condition is met, and to have a custom set of text boxes for that condition. To give an example; I want radio buttons offering choices for a manner of searching records, the user selects one and then a specific set of text boxes are displayed for the user to utilize, if a different option is chosen a different set of text boxes will be shown. Is this something that can be done?
View 7 RepliesI only have had 2 vb classes now in school but I rather like playing with this. I am trying to figure out how to make a button click start a timer that will bring up a splash screen and then close and then close the program. To clarify I want this splash to show up on exiting another simple program that I have already wrote. Also are there any online resources that anyone could recommend to me? I have found a few places but most of the .net ones were limited.
View 3 RepliesI'm a bit confused when it comes to setting the start location of a form, relative to another form.I know how to set the start location for a form, however, I have a "main" form, which is behind this form. The main form will be displaying different images, labels, ect. I need the second form to display at the bottom of the main form. The main form's resolution is 800x600, and the bottom form is 800x65. I tried to set the bottom form's location to 0,535, which WOULD make it right at the bottom of the main form, but it seems that it puts it at that location relative to the user's display resolution.So basically, I just need help with getting this form to appear at the bottom of the main form. I read a bit about "containers", but am not sure exactly if they would work for this, and if they did, how exactly I would incorporate them into my situation.
View 2 RepliesI dynamically create buttons on a form and use the button text as ids so that I can pass that to an SQL query to pull saved data about that button when necessary, but I also use an image over buttons that have information saved about them. What I need to know is how do I keep the text on the button from appearing when there is an image assigned to that button? By default vb.net shows both the text and the image and no TextImageRelation values allow for the image to take precedence. I tried changing the text color to transparent, but the outline of the text is still visible through the image. Is there anyway to keep the text value as it is but just show the image on the button?

are 2 integers which represent a number which does not need to be explained.There i've made a DIM as the form but new! I've tried settings its location but its not possible for me.I know this is possible because: I've visited many VB.NET 2008 Programs that do this
Ok so my main form takes around 5 seconds to load i can't make it so that my load subs are on a seperate thread because too many cross thread calls being made besides i want a splash screen anyway i want a splash screen on a seperate thread that can update status while main thread is loading this way main thread carries the load subs and invokes status label changes in the splash form which is on another thread
this is my code
Dim SPForm As SplashForm
Public Sub LoaderSub(ByVal Splashed As Boolean)
If Splashed = False Then
[Code]...
what happens is the splash form shows and so does the main form but they both lag for 5 seconds (as if they are both on main thread) how do i make it so that the splash form loads from the new thread? I thought the way i did it that's what should happen...
EDIT: also why did code wraps failed to show proper vb code?
I have a "Please Wait..." form that I show when doing some long task. This works quite well. But I cannot seem to control the opening position of the form. Currently I am using:
WaitWindow.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.CenterParent
WaitWindow.Show()
and this is just being ignored. The window opens at random locations. If I change it to CenterScreen, that works! But I don't want it center screen, I want it centered on the parent. Can I manually set the location? I am using VB 2008 Express and the wait form is a plain windows form.
Is there a way to have a button hide when a form loads if the user is running windows xp or earlier?
View 9 RepliesI have a button that I am trying to only allow specific people to see. So I need to unload it or hide it if they aren't the correct person or have the requirements. When I try to use btnUpdate.hide() in my else it will first allow someone to click on the button and use it then it will hide it. It's not hiding the button right away. Thats what lead me to think that maybe i am suppose to unload it some how if its not the correct user or users.

I want to link sql server and vb.net (ADO.NET) . I'm using visual basic 2008 express edition and sql server management studio.

In my software course, each time we submit an assignment, we have to include a document with the starting properties of each object in a form.
E.g.
TextBox1
Location: 241, 115
Name: TextBox1
Size: 100, 20
TabIndex: 0
It's a real pain to scroll through the properties viewer and copy and paste each customised value for 30+ objects on a form... I was wondering if there'd be an easy piece of code or way about getting an (at least partially) automated printout/view of all the properties of the objects.
Was thinking some sort of private sub I could past into the bottom of the program and run on load, that gets all objects, and outputs the non-default properties to a report or something?
well basically i created a new instance of Form1 because i do not like to use a default form instance. but of course doing so gives me 2 Form1s. is there anyway to stop the default form instance from being generated? [code]
