If I use a button, I can't get rid of the white border apearing around it as soon as I press it. It stays there even after until I press something else. In the button properties I declared the Flatstyle as Standard because I like that look the most.

I'm on page 243 of "Sam's Teach Yourself Visual Basic 2008" and it says: * Display the ViewerForm form in the Form Designer * Double-click on the Draw Border button on the toolbar. Only -- I don't see a Draw Border button on the toolbar.
View 7 RepliesI am setting my Winforms Button control properties to appear as a hyperlink would on a web page. I've formatted everything fine, except the border in the FlatAppearance object. I have code to act as pseudo-CSS (FormBackColor is a string constant.):
b.FlatStyle = FlatStyle.Flat
b.BackColor = ColorTranslator.FromHtml(FormBackColor)
b.ForeColor = Color.Blue

The code removes the border from the flat Button control except on MouseOver, where I add a 1 pixel border. On MouseLeave, I remove the border. This is to show some visual feedback. This works fine when the button does not have the focus. However, if I click on the button, giving the button focus, mousing out and over again now shows a greater than 1 pixel border around the button. I'm imagining it's combining my button's explicit 1 pixel border with the traditional "Winform Button has the focus, so add a border" border around the Button.How can I disable/remove the "Winform Button has the focus, so add a border" border? Or, should I just do a check in ButtonMouseOver to check if the control has the focus, being a condition of adding the border, and just be done with it?
I was playing around with designing a custom interface for a test application and I am using a custom image for a close button. I am using the FlatStyle properties to define it's look'n'feel. I've set the border to 0 but when the application loses focus, the border of the button shows up.I have tried to force the property to go 0 again when the application's "LostFocus" event is captured but doesn't work.I am also using a "rollover" method using MouseHover and MouseLeave events to change the image of the button.Using Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition.

I'm finishing up an app for work that will work hand in hand with another app.
What I'd really like to do, is setup a method to add a button to the other apps border. So all they have to do is click that button when in that other app, do their business and move on.
Now, if I hadn't seen it before, I most certainly would've thought that this wouldn't be possible. But I've seen TeamViewer do it.
In that image, TeamViewer created a two-way arrow button and when clicked, displays a small panel of some sort with additional options.
I'm 99.99% sure I'll have to use Windows APIs, but I'm not sure where to begin.

View 2 RepliesI am trying to show the square root of the number entered in the textbox. when the user presses Q (Uppercase), the square Root should be shown (in the textbox). I did manage to get the sqaure root, but the problem is that when I press Q the Letter Q is also typed in. For example, if I enter 25 in the textbox and press Q then I get Q5 as the result. Is there any work around to this problem ? Below is the code that I have used.
Private Sub Textbox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyPress
If e.KeyChar = Chr(81) Then '81 for Letter Q

View 4 RepliesThis is one of those "seems obvious" as how to do, but came across interesting side effect in implementing. I'm trying to keep two text boxes syncronized when information is updated. In this example, I will be using txtStartDate and txtEndDate. If the txtStartDate is changed, then the txtEndDate should should be updated. Likewise, if the txtEndDate changes, I want the txtSartDate to be updated. The side effect I'm comming across is that when I set them up under the TextChanged event for both, the events seem to retrigger against each other indefinately (endless loop?). Am I using the wrong event? Is this a task for a delegate?
View 3 RepliesI have an MDI WinForms app in which the MDI parent form has a ToolStrip, MenuStrip and StatusStrip. Whenever the mouse is moved over one of these controls the cursor changes to a 'wait' cursor (a arrow with an hourglass). This seems to be default behaviour in that there is no code to make this happen. The UseWaitCursor property of both the ToolStrip and MenuStrip is false; StatusStrip does not have this property. This occurs in both debug and release builds and confuses the users who think that the app is 'doing' something when really it isn't! Does anyone know what is causing this to happen, and more importantly how to make it stop?

I'm working on a program that will generate and graph random parabolas with integer vertices. I've got a 360n x360 pictureBox set up and used a for-next loop to draw in a grid consisting of 15 x 15 squares. when I plot the generated parabola I get some unwanted lines/curves. I think this is due to the fact that the (0, 0) point of the picturebox is in the upper left corner and the (0, 0) of my grid is in the center of the picturebox. Is there a way to "move" or "set" the pen position to the first point I wish to plot for my parabola without leaving a mark or trail? Or is there something else I can do? I've tried drawing an invisible line before my g.DrawCurve(plotPen point) but when the DrawCurve is executed I still get an extra line.
Private Sub cmdParabola_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdParabola.Click

I'm using VB 2005 and MS Access 2000. I have a process that does some "stuff" with the data, re-queries the database, re-populates the form then displays a messagebox indicating that the process has completed. My issue is that after clicking OK in the messagebox, that whatever textbox the cursor was in prior to starting the process, now has all the text in it highlighted. If I don't show the messagebox then this doesn't happen. And if I don't call the process that repopulates the form controls, this doesn't happen. There's no code in the app that selects the contents of the textbox so is there a property somewhere that controls this?
View 1 RepliesI have an unbound data grid view. Every cell that has text will display ToolTipText for that value. I'd like certain cells to have no ToolTip and others to have a ToolTip that provides instruction on what the "X" button is for rather than just having "X" display. If anything, for this particular cell, I'd probably rather have no ToolTip. I've tried setting the ToolTip.Text ="" for the cell immediately after creating the row. On other cells, if I change the underlying text value, I try altering the displayed tip text, but only get the text value for that cell.
How can I remove/modify unwanted ToolTips in my DataGridView?

View 14 RepliesI have developed a VB .net application which uses SQL CE as its database engine. It works great so far. I recently added a section to remove unwanted reports which are stored in the database. The app correctly pulls ReportIDs from the table, which the user can select. The program will then delete the records based on the ReportID from the database. I know this records because, for testing purposes, message boxes inform the user of how many records where collected.
Dim SQLDeleteData As String = "DELETE FROM ReportData WHERE (TableID = @ID)"
Dim Con As New SqlCeConnection(DataBaseCon)
Dim DeleteData As New SqlCeCommand(SQLDeleteData, Con)
Dim ReportDelete As Integer = -1
DeleteData.Parameters.Add("@ID", SqlDbType.Int).Value = CInt(ListView1.SelectedItems(0).Text)
noOfDeleted = DeleteData.ExecuteNonQuery
MsgBox("Records Data Deleted " & noOfDeleted)
When the form refreshes to show the user the possible ReportID's, the list no longer contains the recently deleted ReportID. Now this is where I am getting confused. When I go through the server explorer and look at the database there, in the appropriate tables the data still exists. Through the server explorer new query builder, I can still create a select statement to allow me to view the data I just deleted. Does the server explorer create some type of local cache that replicates the database in someway? Are there really two copies of the database somewhere?
