My game is an old-school RPG. The most importand issue I have is that I want to create custom form controlls for the player and the NPC's, however althought I can create a class for e.g. the player.I have been using pictureboxes so far but they aren't as convenient as a custom form controll would be.
View 2 RepliesI dont know if this is the right area. Please sorry if not.Well, first of all, thanx for your attention.Ive searched the whole web (at last where google can see) for a solution, but i just cant find.The problem is the following: I want a list of all controlls in my project, not only on open forms. The reason is that i want to make an access control, and the admin will set which buttons each users can use.

View 1 RepliesWith VB.net, I'm coding a simple application to get more used to the new .Net format.
I'd like to save all the information to a 'new' database file. how to create a database on the fly, once that is done i'll be able to connect to it no problem, but actually creating the file is proving difficult to work/find out.
Also, with vb.net and the newly created custom file, how can it be made to automatically open that information with the program?
Is there a method in installation to associate the file type with the new program? How can i check when the program loads if a database file has been 'double-clicked' (rather than just running from the .exe of the program) and proceed to load the data?
EDIT1 - Extra InfoThe windows application has many different fields and content etc, then i need to save that to a file that could later be loaded by 'double clicking'. I assumed the easiest way would be to create a mini-database for each unique file
I am not a new coder, but i am not a know-it-all. I have been watching some of those NVidia fluid videos, and got jealous. I thought "Why can't i do it?" I'm not good enough for OpenGL or some other 3d engine, but i thought i would try it in 2d.

I need two seperate lists, which every item is Integer, String, Bitmap - and one which every item is Integer, String String. However I don't know how to do this, or even where to look - I've googled for custom objects and custom object lists. What I'm trying to do is this.Custom Object1 is Integer, String, Bitmap Custom Object2 is Integer, String, String
In one thread I'll be adding items to List1(Of Object1), and processing them, and adding the results to List2(Of Object2), however I need to be able from other threads to look at the list and say only give me the items where Integer = (my thread ID), is this possible? Any help, or even links to information that would be relevant to this request would be helpful?

I'm creating an stock management application. At times I want to be able to search for a customer, location, or institution. I know how to do all of this, but what I really nee dot figure out is:How do I create/design a function that calls a form and has the user query information and then return that query's data, preferable datatable.Now, I've created the form that does all this and I have the dataTable but now I want to have a function that can call this "query form" and return that data.I was thinking I have to do something with multi-threading but maybe I'm just looking over something obvious. The best analogy of what I want to do is to create a custom dialog box, but obviously instead of returning a simple integer I'd be returning a dataTable.

I would like to expand my knowledge of VB.NET and was looking at creating custom user interfaces or custom controls. The type of things I am thinking of is: [URL]s. How are those controls created? I imagine it involves using the existing controls in Visual Studio as a starting point, and altering them to suit your design?
View 2 RepliesI have created a little demo application which is able to create a meeting request by using the Exchange WebService (EWS). I would also like to add some custom properties to this item but up to now I have only found examples which use the Exchange Managed API, which I won't use. There must be a way to create these properties by only using EWS... Does anybody know how and can provide a little code example?
View 1 RepliesAs i am trying to create a custom FTP server for an application i've been reading up on this for a while. One part of the problem is obviously the multi threading issue.Now i know that the synclock command will lock an object to the thread that requested it's lock, however in an example on the internet i found the following construction and i am wondering why he would do this.
Code:Private Sub ProcessClient( NewClient As Client )Call SendMessage( "530 Acces Denied", NewClient.ControlSocket) more codeEnd Sub Private Sub SendMessage(ByVal message As String, ByVal ToSocket as Socket)Dim CurrentThread As Thread = Thread.CurrentThread SyncLock CurrentThreadToSocket.Send(Message)End SyncLockEnd Sub Now ProcessClient is a thread that is trying to do some stuff with a newly connected client and SendMessage is just a sub in the same class as where the thread was created. Now normally one would synclock a "syncobject" however here he calls a sub and then from that sub he synclocks to the thread that called it. I wonder what the use of that is and why he does it this way?
I have removed the synclock statement and as I expected it functions exactle the same as it does with it. I tested it with multiple users at the same time trying to connect to it.
I've saw many many times lots of custom controls, so I decided to build mine.

I have been asked to build a custom wizard control in VB.NET for a windows forms project.
