View 1 RepliesI have a problem detecting whether one of the arrow keys is pressed, all the other keys seem to be detected apart from the arrow keys??? I have set key preview to True........ It detects the arrrow keys BUT ONLY if I have NO other controls on the form??? example..
Me.Text = e.keycode
It works, but then if I add a button for example, it stops.
just wondering how i could give my auto typer hot keys, for example they press f1 to start the typer f2 to stop it.

How could I loop through a list of the keys that are available in the 'Keys' enumeration? It seems like it should be something easy to do, but I'm not having any luck finding a collection that I can loop through.
View 6 RepliesSo I found this little morpg. The game is fun but really repetitive. I would like to simplify some of the tasks in the game. I do not know how to start this project. How can I recored arrow keys and then tell the computer to enter the arrow keys? One of the objectives in the game is to run around a farm 2x and scare away any wolfs. So the commands would be "arrow key up" for 30sec and then "arrow key right" for 4 sec and repeat. I have worked with robots in real life for some time. We would fill arrays with such instructions. One of the most fun things to program! But I have no idea how to do this in VB.
View 12 RepliesI have an array like so:
Dim classes() as String = {"FR%", "SO", "JR", "SR", "SR5"}
I need to loop through these values like so:
For Each value as String in classes
Next
Problem is, I have a If..Then..Else clause inside of this For Each..Next which says something to the effect of:
If actual_class = value Then
txt.Text = "Welcome"
Else
txt.Text = "Goodbye"
When I run this, unless the individual is the last value in the string array ("SR5") they are going to get the message "Goodbye"...so, I need somehow to both iterate through each value like is done with a For Each..Next loop but also break out of the loop once it hits the student's class, like a Do..While loop - so that their value doesn't get overrun by the Else clause.

I need to capture the left and right arrow keys in Form1.KeyDown event so I can use them as hot keys. Instead they seem to be assigned to tab order (move focus to previous/next control) and the KeyDown event never gets called. How can I remove the arrow keys from tab order and use them for my hot keys instead?

I would like to be able to add every combination of a list of numbers to determine which combinations equal a specific result.
Simple Example:
List: 2, 4, 6
Result: 10
How many and which combinations of numbers result in the number 10? The correct anwser is only one which is 4 + 6 = 10. The example is simple but the actual list may contain as many as 10 - 15 decimal numbers.
I have thought of the following as a possible way of checking each combination by using binary:
- There are 3 total number so the possible combinations would be:
123 - Three numbers
000 - Add no numbers
001 - Add the last number
[Code].....
However, I don't know how to actually match up the bitwise bits to the numbers in the array to actually add. Example:
101 - I should check if 2 + 6 != 10 per the example above so this wouldn't satisfy the result... does this make sense? The answer would be 4 + 6 = 10.
how to check and add all combinations from a list of numbers to determine if the result is a specific number?
I'm looking for some function to put together every possible combination of letters and number to create a string that is 14 characters long. I have found ways to make every possible combination of letters and numbers seperately. However, I've never run across anything to come up with them together. Every string created must contain letters and numbers.I just have no idea where to start on this one.
View 9 RepliesI would like to generate a combination of words. For example if I had the following list:
{cat, dog, horse, ape, hen, mouse}
then the result would be n(n-1)/2
cat dog horse ape hen mouse
(cat dog) (dog horse) (horse ape) (ape hen) (hen mouse)
(cat dog horse) (dog horse ape) (horse ape hen) etc
what I want to do is I want to list every possible combination with alphabet A-Z and number 0-9 That will be AAAA?
View 8 Repliesi would like to know that is there any way to activate a button with the Ctl and a key combination
we can do it with Alt and the key combination but my client is asking for ctrl & the key combination i have searched a lot but failed to find anything.
secondly :
i have used the alt & key combination for my buttons but the prob. is unless and untill the user presses the alt key the key combination is not highlighted. i have seen progs. where the key that is used for e.g. i have given &Add then the 'A' key is highlighted always with the underline. but when i am doing it by giving the name as &Add unless and untill the user presses alt the underline under A doesnt appear. do i have do more than just giving "&Add".
