View 14 RepliesI have a form with textboxes for input. I have coded the Exit button to display a message box that asks the user if they want to save any data in the textboxes before exiting the program:
Private
Sub btnExit_Click(ByVal
sender As System.Object,
ByVal e
[code]....
The question I have if the textboxes are blank (nothing has been entered), how do I code the Exit button to close the program without displaying the message box asking the user to save the data.' Save the numbers. Call the btnSave_Click procedure.
I have an application that creates files at certain directories, deploys them and then removes them when neccessary. Under Windows Vista and 7, access for my program to carry out such commands are denied because UAC is blocking it.Now i am NOT using Visual Studio, i am using SharpDevelop and my project is a Windows Form. How can i prompt the user with the UAC dialogue so my application can acquire UAC elevation and carry out its tasks?I would also like to point out that everything works perfectly when UAC is either turned off or the user runs my program with Administrator Rights.

However this application needs to be run as administrator. Is there a way to get the application to bring up the RunAs prompt as soon as it runs, so the user doesn't have to do a Shift + Right click > Runas?
How do I prompt the user to input elements in a two dimensional array? And how do I then save the output?I've figured out how write and print a program where the program provides the elements (see short version below), but I can't work out how to get the user to input the elements instead.
Solfa(0, 0) = 11
Solfa(0, 1) = 12
Solfa(1, 0) = 21

I'm creating a program and i want it to secretly save when the user clicks on save.
In other words, i have made it so that it saves twice. Once for the user to read (like a fancy copy) and another that the program uses to open up the form.
Currently when pushed, 2 save dialog boxes come up after each other. I don't want this to happen. I want 1 to come up (the user friendly, fancy version) which is the easy part, but i also want the other 1 to save automatically and secretly without asking the user to set the destination.
Is there a way to shrink the length of the prompting box within VB. I just want to obtain 1 value and would rather not have to create anotherform with a single text box and label.
View 1 RepliesI need to have my application to prompt the user to see if he wants to save the settings or not before the application exits.I got this to work this way: I added an event handler to My.Application.Shutdown. This event handler does prompt the user and save the settings if the user answers "Yes".But in order to stop the application to save the settings anyway via its regular way, I have to set My.Application.SaveMySettingsOnExit to falseAs I said, it works, but it just look like a bad logic to set SaveMySettingsOnExit to false to have it to save the settings saved on exit with a prompt.
My question is: is there a way to get it work like this:
-SaveMySettingsOnExit =true -- PromptBeforeSave =True ( Save and Prompt)
-SaveMySettingsOnExit =true -- PromptBeforeSave =false ( Save and no Prompt)

Im trying to save a file in XML and offer the user a save dialog to appear so they can name the file. The file will save using a custom file extention. The problem is I keep getting off the wall suggestions and Im looking for a simple solution. Here is what I have, please only show examples using my syntax based code. Im still a bit new to Vb so posting off the wall examples

in my form i have 4 textboxes and i want all not to be empty while saving the data.I have put condition in save button,when user presses the save button to save data, to check all the textboxes not to be empty. My question is that, i want to focus to that particular textbox which is empty during saving the data.
For example: i have txt1,txt2,txt3,txt4 as textboxes in the form if txt1 is empty while saving, the focus should switch to txt1 rather user himself have to go there.
in vb.net i am trying to save application settings but for USER but i cannot find the user.config file
when does this file get created?
i searched my entire hardrive. i also searched the entire project.
I'm trying to save what the user types in the vb code Dim user as Inputbox("") for example in a .txt file i can save the textbox and listbox but i cnt figure out how to save the inputbox i really need this to be saved the most.
View 7 RepliesI was developing my own project in the university so what i am stack is to have save button which firstly validates what the user enters the form. for instance if the user skips the text fields, i wanted to restrict the user to fill all the form and when he completes, the save must be accomplished.
Here's the code i was trying to put but i was having problem saying the windows.forms.etc is unable to convert the save as Boolean and something like that.
Dim success As Boolean
Private Sub Save_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Save.Click

I'm using visual studio 2005 to develop a form with a combobox passing a value into the parameter of an embedded crystal report. Why it keeps prompting me for a database login every single time you try to run the report with a different combobox selection.
Here is my code:
private Sub Form1_load...
Dim ConnName As String
Dim ServerName As String
Dim DBName As String
Dim user As String
Dim pass As String

I looked at this previous posting [URL]. I couldn't find where a CMC was to disable the prompt.
I am working with a folder of xls files that are all in identical format (automatically generated by entering numbers into a pricing app). I need to pull the data that is in cell D54 on the worksheet of the same name in every file. Can't seem to get anything to work to make it loop.
View 1 RepliesI'm using Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 Express and had developed an application to perform Excel.Workbooks.OpenText. I had tried the application on my PC (running Office 2000) and my friend's PC (running office 2007); the software running fine on both PC. But I had experienced error using to application on Office 2000. It's giving me error which read as:
"System.AccessViolationException:Attempted to read or write protected memory. ...
at Excel.Workbooks.OpenText"
Does the error relate to Office version i'm using? Or it's PC hardware dependant (like lack of RAM).
I have a bunch of Excel workbooks that contain multiple worksheets. I want to loop through each workbook and export each worksheet into it's own new workbook. I want one worksheet in each new workbook.
Here's what I've got so far:

Dim xlApp As Excel.Application = New Excel.ApplicationClass
Dim xlWorkBook As Excel.Workbook = xlApp.Workbooks.Add
worksheet.Select()
worksheet.Copy()

Trying to get names of all visible open excel workbooks. I found code online, that is below.I suspect the code is not working for me because either: I didn't include a reference (in addition to the MS Excel 12.0 Object reference and in addition to the Microsoft Office Interop reference, both were made) or something else basic being missed. i have been using the "early-bound" code below that is recognizing oExcelApp as visible...however, the open excel workbooks that I have open, are not being recognized.
I am using Windows XP and VB in Visual Studio 2010.Here is what I found online; disregard the late-bound if doesn't apply:

Our small business uses a VB project to 'process' information in excel workbooks. The project works on all machines except one (a new one) which generates a "Runtime Error 9".

View 3 RepliesI have written a program that will export data from access data to Excel by using XML programmatically, But I seem to be having problem when I tried to open in excel.
View 2 RepliesIn VB 2008, I am trying to create an app that will copy a range of cells from one worksheet ("xlWS1") in the first workbook ("xlWB1") to another worksheet ("2") in a second workbook ("xlWB2"), starting in cell A1. I would like this to be activated by a button.Then, another button will copy the same cells from "xlWS1" to "xlWB2", worksheet "3", and so on for each subsequent button.
xlWB1/xlWS1 contains data in the cells that is updated from our data acquisition system once per second. (we perform jet engine testing). "xlWB2" sheets (6 of them) will contain the saved data from the "live" screen (xlWS1, came cell range) in the first WB. There are several different versions (filenames) of the second workbook, one for each engine model.Both workbooks should already be open, but I would also like the app to open them if they are not open already.
We have been using VBA macros to do this, but run into problems when someone saves the second (destination) workbook under a different filename. For some reason, if the filename of the Wb that is already open isn't the same as what's in the macro for that button, the macro's defined workbook is renamed in the macro. I am trying to get away from using the macros to keep this from happening, and to make an app that's "foolproof" so it is more reliable.
I already have an app that will open the proper workbooks. I may combine the two apps in the future. I can't find a solution for this. The VBA code is quite different and simple as far as opening, activating, copying, etc. Basically, I can't seem to find any self-explanatory "activate/copy/paste, etc." namespace in Vb 2008 like I used in the VBA macros.
I'm sure the solution is simple, but I just can't seem to find it in the MSDN library or the VS 2008 book I have. Everything in the book talks about accessing databases, which we don't use (yet). There's nothing concerning this issue with Excel 2003 workbooks/worksheets.
I would like to display all open workbooks in a listbox.The problem being that there may be a number of Excel Processes running.[code]...

View 2 RepliesI have 2 workbooks( Book1 and Book2) with multiple sheets.I am only interested in one of the worksheets in the workbooks(both the worksheets names are the same).The thing is that the data is in the form of pivot tables, so each time i have to filter according to specific categories, copy and paste into another new workbook.The thing is column headings in both the worksheets are different,BUT BOTH the worksheets data must be combined into 1 single worksheet( row after row).
Meaning in Book1, my columns are in the form of Cost, revenue,margin and in book2, the columns are in the form of Cost,Revenue, Profit Margin %.... That means i must add a profit margin % column in Book1 and a Margin column in Book2 before I combine the data into a single worksheet. Each week, new data gets added into Book1 and Book2, so I wish to automate this by creating a code, so that when the source data changes, my new workbook's data also changes.
I want to change "Prompting Text" of a crystal report parameter in VB6.0. When report is connected to View, it is able to change the "Prompting Text" of parameter. But when it is connected to Procedure, it is throwing "Not a Report Parameter".
I found one reason behind this. When we use view, we create parameters explicitly in the report. But for procedure, report will get parameters from procedure. As there are no parameters in report, it throws "Not a Report Parameter".
So how to add prompting text to the "crystal report parameter" from vb6 when the report uses stored procedure?
