I'm making a webbrowser and coding the ctrl+f function has proven to be too complicated. I therefore decided to link buttons with the ctrl+f window that already exists in IE. What i want to do now is hide the ctrl+f window that pops up. When I hide active window at the moment it hides the webbrowser and not the ctrl+f window that pops up.

I have a vb.net application that, when a short cut is pressed, a window pops up. I also would like to make it completely invisible, unless the short cut is pressed. In the default class that houses my code for noticing the short cut and coordinating the events of the short cut, I have placed the following code:
Me.ShowInTaskbar = False
I have isolated this code as the issue. The issue is that my application does not work when it is not shown in the taskbar. This is only the default form - for the pop up window I have a separate class. How can I create a workaround for hiding the window in the taskbar and hiding it in general?
Btw, this is my hotkey code:
Public Const MOD_ALT As Integer = &H1
Public Const WM_HOTKEY As Integer = &H312
Public Declare Function RegisterHotKey Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As IntPtr, ByVal id As Integer, ByVal fsModifiers As Integer, ByVal vk As Integer) As Integer

View 2 RepliesI have been working on a program to hide windows for an active process. I found some examples on the internet explaining how to do this. The problem, however, is that after I hide the windows I cannot get them back. The process still shows up in task manager but i cannot restore the window..
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Imports System.Diagnostics
Public Class Form1
[code].....
I was just googleing this, and i came across this
Dim p As New System.Diagnostics.Process
p.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
p.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = True
p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = True
p.StartInfo.FileName = "cmd.exe"
p.Start()
Does that mean that i could show it again? if so, is there a code that can do this?Also, if i wanted to get the window that the user is currently in, how would i be able to hide that?
I have created an application domain, using which i am executing an .exe file.So the command window does open which has the title as file name. I want to hide the command window.
Dim newAppDomain As AppDomain = AppDomain.CreateDomain("", AppDomain.CurrentDomain.Evidence, AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation)
newAppDomain.ExecuteAssembly(IO.Path.Combine(Offic eAddInConfig.Instance.BinPath & "Core", "file1.exe"))
Here a command prompt will be opened which need to hide.
So i want to start an application with my vb.net app and it should start as a hidden process, meaning no window and nothing in the task bar, only in the task manager ofcourse.
This is what i do
Dim fov As New Process
If CheckBox2.Checked = True Then
RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & vbCrLf & "* - Launching"
fov.StartInfo.FileName = ("test.exe")
[Code]...
This does not work.. I have also tried the "fov.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = True" command which does not work either. I can live with a solution that would start the window minimized instead of totally hidden.
I have a software that im working on currently and i need the key combination Ctrl+Alt+Del to open up another window.Are multiple key combinations possible in Visual Basic?

However, as soon as the user presses CTRL-ALT-DEL the Windows Security Screen comes up and it is too fast for VB to detect that the keys have been pressed.I did a little reaserch on how to work around this issue and found that a GINA stub can be written which can delay the Windows Security Screen by some time say 2 secs which would be enough for VB to detect that the keys have been pressed.Also disabling Ctrl-Alt-Del through VB does not work because it is too fast for VB and I would like not to disable CTRL-ALT-DEL

View 5 RepliesI have a datagridview and once I populate the view with the data source I hide the columns that I do not need. For some reason the 1st column is not hiding. I have checked the column name and they match and the 2nd line executes fine hides the column for the EVENTID. I even did a messagebox.show( dgvTourOther.Columns("OTHERID").name) and it returned the correct name.
dgvTourOther.Columns("OTHERID").Visible = False
dgvTourOther.Columns("EVENTID").Visible = False
The values being passed are all strings. I do this on 3 other datagridviews ok but for somereason this gridview is acting different. I am going to try an rearrange the columns and see if that helps.

Now when I choose Breakfast in combobox1, I want user to see all 4 items in combobox2. But when I choose Lunch in combobox1, I only want user to see (1)Bananas(2)Grapes(4)Oranges in combobox2, hiding Apples.

I want my panels to be visible when the radio button is check and when its unchecked it would hide.
Setup:
5 panels
5 radio button
radio button1 shows panel1 if checked Each radio button is set to show each panel and hide each one if its checked or not. Ex:
Private Sub RadioButton1_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles RadioButton1.CheckedChanged
If RadioButton1.Checked = True Then
Panel1.Visible = True
[code].....
When my form loads it shows panel1 because radiobutton one is check. But when i select another radio button panel one doesnt hide. Also when i did it to the other panels such as 2,3,4,5 it does hide and show when the checked state has changed.
