How To Reference Resources To Save In Settings - Visual Basic 2008 .net
May 24, 2012
I'm trying to save a setting that keeps what background image I'm currently using.If it's an external file, there is no problem, i can just get the .location and set it in a String setting to store it.
But, if I want to store an image resource as a setting, how do i do it?I know i can store rawdata, like bitmap information, but then i can't set that type of data to the my.background.
I don't know if the question should be: "how do i reference resources", but the my.resources.resource.methodsList doesnt contain anything that seems to be of use.

Is it possible to initialize a My.Settings value in a Visual Basic Deployment Project (VS 2008)? I can add the Radio Button Dialog to prompt the user, but I don't see how to use that to set the My.Settings value.

I have an issue with creating a VB program. I reference files on my computer that are displayed in a webbrowser in the program. The issue comes when I install the program on another computer because of the file path. The program is looking for the files on the computer I created the program on because of the file path, instead of looking for the files within the program resource files.
For example, I created the program on Computer A and referenced File "C:ComputerAMy DocumentsHelp.txt"
Once installed on Computer B, the program doesnt display the image because it's looking for "Computer A" in the file path.How do I correct my programming so that the files are universial and can be found on any computer the program is installed on?

Whenever I modify a file in the IDE in Visual Basic Express 2008, and then press the "Save" or "Save All" button, the "Save As" dialog opens, then says that a file of that name already exists and requests confirmation of the save. This didn't happen in Express 2005 as far as I remember.

My project is using Visual Basic 2010. I have a pure text save file with the following format:
num_TEC|1
num_STR|0
num_PER|0
num_MEC|1
num_KNO|1
num_DEX|1
I'm trying to load the data by using the first column as the object name and the second as the value. I've had some success with the following (skipping some basic IO lines):
prop = FileReader.ReadLine().Split("|")
tempvar = prop(0)
If TypeName(Me.Controls(tempvar)) = "NumericUpDown" Then
Me.Controls(tempvar).Value = prop(1)
I have a problems with this because I have some objects in panels or group boxes and Me doesn't reach into them.
Is there a way to just strictly reference an object with a variable? I'd love to assign the first column into prop(0) and just say
if TypeName(object(prop(0))) = "NumericUpDown" then
object(prop(0)).Value = prop(1)

In a while loop, I am writing a progressively increasing integer value (between 0 and 100) to the Value attribute of a ProgressBar control, when it disappears from the window in which it resides. I have verified at the time that it disappears that the Min is 0, Max is 100, and Value is a valid integer in range.

How do I disable the background compiler for Visual Basic in Visual Studio 2008?
For my sins, I have to work on a large VB.NET project and it often locks up for 20 seconds at a time whilst doing the very helpful background compilation
I'd rather work blind between compiles and be able to do some work.
