I have autoscroll enabled on it so when they fill the viewable space it scrolls. but i need to put the labels to the left unviewable space(when left scroll is already at 0) The label is placed but i dont get the scroll bars and i cant force it to scroll to a - value.
Is this even possible? Same thing with UP.
Or is the Scroll only limited to Bottom and Right?
Best Way To Hold App Settings
Dec 2, 2010I'm building a new industrial app using MODBUS/TCP talking to a DAQ unit that will have a lot of parameters and will need to be adaptable for different scenarios. For example, the units I'm connecting to have 12 inputs and 6 outputs, mapping for those may be different for each installation, and in one instance I'll be talking to 4 units together - if that's the best way to do it - each one will have identical parameters, just a different ID number and ip address. They will all be writing to a SQL Server database. Not sure if I'm better off having a Tab control with each unit on a separate tab or a different instance of the app for each one. Is one better than the other? The units will be polled every 200-500ms. 500ms seems to be more stable.
With so many parameters, is it better to store all them inside the application and access them through My.Settings or would I be better storing them in a database, either the SQL Server DB or maybe something like SQLite (one of my faves) or is there a better way?
Not done anything quite as big as this before and first time with MODBUS, but that bit is working a treat.
Hold A Date Value?
Nov 11, 2009I am writing a program that is going to take two dates (entered by a user) and compare them against each other to determine when something was purchased vs when it was paid for. I'm ok with everything except one part, and its a biggie, how do I have the user enter the dates (format) and how do I convert it from a string to a recognized date format? Does that make sense?
View 4 RepliesHow To Hold Up A Console App
Oct 26, 2011I really want to do this the proper way, it's just that I've been doing it the wrong way for so long, I can't seem to get past it.
in a console app if I start a timer or kick off a thread or bgw, the sub main runs right on thru and the app finishes and closes.
i need the sub main to just hold position until some event is raised then handle the event and come back to sub main or end depending if the event that was raised told us to end or not.
what I would normally use is this:
Do While KeepLooping
Wait(5D)
CheckTimedEvent()

View 3 RepliesMaking A List Box Hold A Value?
Nov 30, 2011I am a first year coding student and we are starting out with Visual Basic. Up until now I have been able to figure everything out, but I have run hard into a wall and I don't feel like I've been taught how to get over it. Here's the thing.
First Form
Contains a list box for products selected, and four text boxes for Subtotal, Tax, Shipping and Total.
Second & Third Forms
Each contain a list box of books to select from which will be added to the first form.[code]....
I feel like I am doing it wrong right out of the gate - as you can see I am going by the item that the user chooses, and adding a constant value that I have pre-defined in a module. Then I add the name of the book to the first form - but here's the issue.That text string doesn't hold a value.SO, when I use the remove button on the first form - the text string removes but the subtotal, tax, shipping and total boxes do not change in the least bit because the item that I removed doesn't retain any value.

.NET Snake Game Freeze When Hold A Key Down?
Dec 24, 2011I'm trying to make the classic Snake game in VB.NET, but if I hold a key (any key) during the game, after a few seconds the game freezes until I release the key. I've tried lots to fix this, but nothing works, maybe because I don't understand the problem.I'm assuming that when I hold down a key, the Form1_KeyDown function gets called, and when, after a few seconds, the key goes into "I'm being held down" mode, that function is constantly called, so the timers don't get a chance to update. But like I said, I'm probably wrong.
I've been struggling with this for a while. I think this is all the necessary code, please let me know if it isn't.

Access Database To Hold Data For VB App?
May 3, 2010I have a bit of a problem. I am using an Access database to hold data for my VB app. In the VB app, I have a data source thats pulling data from the database.

Is there a way that i can get the data source to update itself when the form loads?

Best Way To Set Up Server That Could Hold Multiple Databases
Apr 5, 2010connect my vb.net application to a remote sql server database, so every one who installs the application would be able to connect to the same remote database. the application would obviously require the internet to run.i also want the option to add more databases in the future, preferably one for each business who would use my software.i am wondering the best way to set up this server that could hold multiple databases. i would think i have two options:
1) set up the server myself on a dedicated computer
2) pay for some type of service that host sql server dataases
so how would i go about executing these options? i dont know the first thing. which option is better?i do however know how to connect to a remote database so thats not what i am asking.
