I working on a VB.NET project to manipulate a VB6 form using COM Interop. Some of the controls on my VB6 form are indexed and some not, so calling ctl.Index fails on those that have no index. Is there a way to work out if a control is indexed?
View 1 RepliesPrivate Sub minschanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles txtAct1.TextChanged, txtAct2.TextChanged, txtact3.TextChanged, txtact4.TextChanged, txtact5.TextChanged

When one of the boxes is changed, I would like to find the index of the sender object that was changed in the txtmins() array.
I am upgrading user control from vb6 to vb.net.In the vb6 application I am loading 3000 labels using a label control array.In vb.net I am doing same but it's taking too much time to load.In vb6 it's taking 1-2 seconds, but in vb.net it's taking 30-40 seconds for same work. Why does it take too much time in vb.net for same work?Code is given below, here Led is the label control array.
For l = 1 To 3000
Led.Load(ledCounter)
ColLed.Add(Led(ledCounter))
[code]....
The situation is like this, says:I have textbox1 to textbox20 to show real-time reading, then textbox21 to textbox40 for other purpose. So textbox1-20 can be manage in group through: For index As Integer = 1 To 20 Form1.Controls("Textbox" & index).BackColor = SystemColors.Window Next The problem is, after some time i feel i like to change the order or add/delete few textbox, then i need to change the control name one by one by entering the name by hands(says if i add a text box then its name will be textbox41, then then For loop wont work, Or I deicided to delete the textbox15, forloop wont work either, then i need to rename them manually.)
Question: If there a ways that create a control array in VB 2008 express edition? which can set the name of Textbox1-20 to ButtonGroup then refer to them by says Buttongroup(1) for textbox1? (which means set a group of control in one name)
I have an aspx page that has two different user controls. I want to find user control A and be able to set properties, etc., from user control B.
I was thinking I could do something like this:
Dim CMFilters As Control = Me.Parent.FindControl("CMFilters")
...but that doesnt work to be able to set properties and call methods. I somehow need to get the user control and and declare it as that user control type.
I have an array of picture boxes as so:
Dim pieces(500) As PictureBox
pieces(1) = New PictureBox
With pieces(1)
[Code].....
The program does not crash or anything, but the picturebox is no where to be seen on the form. How to I make this work correctly?
And is 'Control Array' the correct term for this? or something else?
I populated a form with several progress bars and added a function to handle a click event via AddHandler. The event fires and I have been able to do things with the control using the passed object 'sender', but I can't for the life of me determine what the index of the control is in the array.
Why is that important to me? Because I want to click the control, have a container of textboxes become visible, and populate them with data from the reference in my database based on what control was clicked, and update that data as needed. Making the container of textboxes visible, and even moving it based on the location of the clicked control in the array are all done and working fine. I just can't seem to get the index of the control.
I need to know what entry (progress bar in this case) was clicked. In the function, I can even do things with a select progress bar using something like pb(x).value = some integer, but I'm trying to find out what 'X" is when the click event fires.
Here are some code snippets...
'Populate page 0 of tab control with progress bars
'TimerCount(int) = number of timer instances active in the database
For x = 0 To TimerCount
[code]....
EDIT: I figured out a work around using the 'name' property, but I would still like to know if what I asked about an index is possible.
I have an application with as many as 625 Textboxes in a runtime generated control array.I add textboxes one at a time in a subroutine.The application ran with no problems until the parameters required more than 256 textboxes at which point it slowed drastically as textboxes were added. At circa 400 Textboxes it died with an out-of-memory condiiton.
The system has 8GB & a 64Bit version of Windows 7.It looks like the tooltips are eating up memory, causing excessive use of virtual memory from Hard Disk & finally causing out-of-memory.I am now running the application with a label which flashes when the mouse hovers. This uses the Handler for MouseHover.Is it possible to get a single Tooltip to function for all the Controls in an Array? I would prefer this to using the Event Handler.
Here's my situation: I have a control with motion graphics (for the sake of simplicity, a 'video player' control) in my project. Think of a PictureBox with constantly-changing images. In front of this will sit a second control (such as a second PictureBox of the same dimensions). The topmost PictureBox will be drawn to in its Paint event.
I need to draw very few elements, and the bottom control is updated much more frequently than I need for this drawing. So these elements are drawn to the topmost control. Think of a news broadcast, where they have live video in the background, with a news channel logo, news ticker, and sometimes gradient visible in front.
I'm trying to create that 'foreground' control, and the closest I believe I have gotten so far is the following:
Imports System.Drawing
Imports System.Drawing.Imaging
Imports System.Drawing.Drawing2D
[CODE]...
The 'Opacity' property in the code above is a sort of "scaling factor." The image drawn to the top control may, in different parts of the image, have any alpha value from full transparent to a full 255. This 'Opacity' property is applied to the entire image being drawn, scaling the alpha values of each pixel.

Dim sr As New StreamReader("CoverageArea.dat")
Dim strAreaLine As String[code].....
I have a question about that strAreaInfo()...I left the () with no number in it so that it wouldn't have a set # of values, and then I tried to give it 3 values, but I get the error in the title. Am I doing something wrong when I declare it?
I want to set control position relative to other control so when i make one control hide then other control move up like this.

I am trying to convert some old VB6 code to VB.NET. The VB6 uses a Canvas control, simply
Dim cv as Canvas
I cannot for the life of me figure out how to use the Canvas control in VB.NET (using VS2005). MSDN says it is in the System.Windows.Controls namespace, which doesn't seem to exist? All I see is System.Windows.Forms, which doesn't include the Canvas control.
My page has a DetailsView that has a hidden field in it that gets referenced by an SQLDataSource to populate a different field in the same DetailsView. I cannot get the codebehind to find the Control, no matter how many different ways I try. I really need to be able to show the TEXT field which is associated with the dsPicklist SqlDataSource. I have marked the code that is causing problems.
<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Select Survey:"></asp:Label>
<asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList1" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True"
DataSourceID="dsSurvey" DataTextField="SurveyName" DataValueField="SurveyID">
