View 13 RepliesI've been programming in VB.net for a while now, and I finally got access to a mac to make ipod apps. What are some useful sites, videos, etc. that could help me get used to Objective C and the Xcode IDE? I've stumbled upon the samples on the apple dev site, but none of them really give good examples which I could learn the syntax of the language from.
View 2 RepliesThe extent of my experience with SQL server is simply adding a database to my current windows application and then performing queries through the interface I created. Everything is fine but I want to move to the R2 version to allow for a 10GB limit.I have downloaded the new version and successfully ran the install. But, I am at a complete loss now what? I know this is probably ignorant, but what is the next step to making sure that the database currently set up in my application will now utilize R2?

View 1 RepliesI have searched the forum and found several forums related to the backgroundworker thread but have been unsuccessful in finding my answer.My objective is to display an animated gif or progress bar while the program is executing a particular method which can take upwards of several minutes to complete. I cannot get the second thread to run the progress bar while the main progrem is executing the time consuming method. I have created a demo based on another thread and can't seem to get it to create two threads. I was attempting to get the backgroundworker to execute the progress bar while my main code runs on UI thread.

I have a VB.net project which uses a background worker to do some stuff.
Now I want to expand the project to be able to do multiple stuff :)
A user can enter an URL in a textbox and when the user click on the parse button the program creates a new tabcontrol a outputs some data.
I use a hardcoded background worker for this.
But now I want to run multiple background workers to do this stuff so I can't rely on hard coding the background worker(s).
Is it possible to create background workers dynamically.
how to set this up since I think I need to set up the different methods and variables like:
Private bw As BackgroundWorker = New BackgroundWorker
bw.WorkerReportsProgress = True
bw.WorkerSupportsCancellation = True
[Code]....
I think I need to declare the background workers in some sort of array like variable (list / dictionary)??? Other then that I have no idea how to tackle this.

edit : and another thing when I try to add an image to a image box it shows me the image error image. you know when it can't load the image. it actually showed it for 1 second and then it disappear .here is the code for the Image box
ptbplayer.ImageLocation = CurDir() & "Images/player.jpg"
I used a custom form in visual studio. I had set the parent form for mdicontainer as true. When I try to load the childform and the code is form2.show then my design for a custom form image is working but when I add the code:
form2.show form2.mdiparent = mdiparent it won't.
I had set the transparency as = red
backgroundcolor = red
formstyle = none
backgroundimagestyle = none
Everything works fine using a .gif image custom form image but when I put a code "mdiparent" it won't. It is important to put "form2.mdiparent=mdiparent" so that when I clicked the background image which is the "form1" or the parent form the form2 will not go to the back page of form1. It is possible to disable the click event of form1 so that when I clicked it the form2 will not go to its back.
