I have bunch of default strings and ints throughout the app. like default names, etc,etcThose are all constants. I just want to access them in different pages in my app. What is the best place to place them? I was thinking about Enum or something similar. What is the best approach?
I have a few SQL connected check boxes in my form.The problem is that on the 'Add New' event the check boxes go into a "intermediate" status (filled in).What I would like is for all the check boxes to be unchecked.I have so far tried the following and none of it worked.[code]Nothing seems to help, in fact there seems to be no effect at all on the check box properties no matter what I do (wether I change the property in VB, in the table definition, or programicaly).
So I have an .aspx page loading up and populating drop downs based on a lookup table in the database. What we want is for the user to be able to configure which of these values comes defaulted by specifying that value in a drop down somewhere else in the app. Now, it's easy to default the "first" value, or something like that, but we want this to act differently. Is there a JavaScript function that can run immediately after onLoad (so the drop downs are populated already), that can go through the drop down and make one of those default so it looks like the page is loading with that set as default and people don't realize the workaround? (weird masking, etc.)
Here is an example of how we add the dropdown control to the page: With CType(.AddControl(New Controls.ComboBox("CodeId", "../../../../CodeId", "Code")), Controls.ComboBox) .ForceSelection = True .ValueField = "LookupID" .DisplayField = "LookupDesc" .Validate.AllowBlank = False .ForceSelection = True .ReadOnly = EditControl.IsFieldReadOnly(10580) .BindData(Model.Codes) End With
I'm using VB2010 (10.0.40219.1 SP1Rel) and .NET 4 (4.0.30319 SP1Rel) on Windows 7, when I press F1 for a VB item I get help for VB 2008 and .NET 3.5; how do I set those to the correct values? I have run "Check for updates online" under "Manage help settings", and rebooted; no change.
VS 2010 is rather annoying in that its sub windows always seem to be moving about and I have to put them back where they belong. It seems that I've completely lost one window now however- its the one that should go below solution explorer/to the right of the error reporter where all the information for the highlighted entry is displayed. How do I get this back/restore defaults of the way things are displayed?
im trying to create a .dll called PDTKey.dll (for example) that will hold all of my applications Product Keys..and when the user inserts a Product key into the main application..it searchs in PDTKey.dll to see if the Poduct key specified is there..
I have a pretty large project built in vb.net under VS 2008. This project is heavy using SQL.
There is one part of the project, that I need to make a smaller project. So I am taking 6 forms out of 23 and adding them into this new project. Instead of adding the data set, I built a new one. With a different name. But it's connect to the same database.
First of all, is this a good way to make a sub-project, or is there a better way.
Secondly, I am running into a problem where my table adapters are not members of dataset. I get this error in the design code. I know it's not a good idea to manually change this code.
I have a text box which has a Ajax calendar extender attached. You click on the text box, the calendar pops up, you select a date and that gets displayed in the text box. That all good but the date is displayed in mm/dd/yyyy format. Can this be changed?
I am creating a Html editing application using Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 Express, and I want my application to have two kinds of documents; a project, and a template project. How can I make it so these documents all display an icon that I have made? Also, how do I set them to open in my application by default, when the program is installed, or first run?
I have a form that has many controls. My next task is to populate the phone number (MaskedTextBox) and phone number type (ComboBox) when the cursor has lost focus from a ComboBox that has auto complete functionality. I have tried to do it and when the cursor leaves focus, the other controls are not populated. Nothing happens. I do not get any errors either. Screen shot attached for the form and I am also using a stored procedure to do this. There are two tables in question here. A client table that the name and phone number and then the second table that has the phone number type (cell, work, home, etc).There is an FK relationship between the two.
This is my stored procedure. It is called sp_GetClientInfoByName. vb CREATE PROCEDURE sp_GetClientInfoByName
create a COM dll in Visual Basic. [URL]I now want to use this dll in a C++ project. I used OLE/COM Viewer to create an .idl file as is described in the second half this tutorial.[URL]I compiled the .idl with the midl compiler and included the .h file that was created in my c++ project.Here is my Visual Basic Code
<ComClass(MyComClass.ClassId, MyComClass.InterfaceId, MyComClass.EventsId)> _ Public Class MyComClass #Region "COM GUIDs"
[code]....
I receive the following errors when I compile my c++ project
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _CLSID_MyComClass error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol IID_MyComClass
I've been assigned to start a new Logging Project from zero in VB.NET.The final exit of the main project is information organized in paragraphs like this:
[code]...
Every paragraph correspond to a database connection. Every connection is made with an entire diferent database.i need my logging project to save everything the user does, so the logging exit would be like the system exit but with exceptions and other important information like this: Paragraph's title 1 Paragraph's content 1.Paragraph's title 2 User wasn't able to see this information because an exception ocurred: System.WhateverException:couldn't connect to WCF.as you can see the exit is the same but i need to create a detail log because the information is delicate and the DBA needs to now wich user did what and what was the response of the system. Also i need it to be and independant project so i can re-use it in another projects. Seeing the final exit of both the main project and the logging project, what would you recommend me to use for logging in .NET?
i'm currently working on building a program that will take a MS Access database system produced by my company and create a VB.Net project with all the forms in it (obviously the code should be manually done, but to save time the forms and controls can be produced automatically).I have tried Googling and seem not to be able to find anything about this (which probably means I wasn't searching with the right keywords), I was wondering whether anyone knows any good resources on how to create the VB.Net project programmatically as I already know how to do all the access stuff.
I am building an error log in a VB project. Is there a way to extract: 1) the name of the sub that a sub routine fails on? 2) what line of code a sub routine fails on? 3) what other items can I extract that are meaningful?
I am working on a project that has some events already created and working. One of these events is called SelectedIndexChanged Event. I am using it for one of my Subs in my frmNewInspection Class, and I am trying to use it for a second Sub and it says that "Event SelectedIndexChanged Cannot Be Found".
The event is created here in a class called LabelComoBox Private Sub tctlInspection_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles tctlInspection.SelectedIndexChanged 'MsgBox("Index: " & tctlInspection.SelectedIndex.ToString) [Code] .....
So, I fired up my old laptop while my current app was running and tried to start a new project.
As soon as the form comes up, I see this instead of the normal windows form.
Code: at Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.Win32Error(Int32 errorCode, String str) at Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.GetValueNames() at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Design.WindowPaneProviderService.AppendWindowPanes(RegistryKey parentKey, ArrayList windowPanes)
i am trying to create a simple program in vb.net but i cant start because there are no items found.. no forms are found am i missing some libraries or i installed it the wrong way?
I'm trying to use the System.Windows.Forms.MonthCalendar control within a VSTO Excel workbook. I want the MonthCalendar to pop up when I click a button in the ribbon, but so far I can't get the control to display at all.
Private Sub DeliveryDateFromCalendarButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Ribbon.RibbonControlEventArgs) Handles DeliveryDateFromCalendarButton.Click
Is there any performance hit (or other problem) to creating a lot of class and structure types for a project? I'm not talking about the number of objects existing in-memory during runtime; rather just defining a lot of object types during design time. I find myself making a lot of small classes and structures that are little more than simply packaging a few related variables together.
It seems that in C#, a solution can contain multiple projects, which, I guess, would compile into separate but somehow related programs. It seems that this functionality is missing in VB, even though VB uses solution files as well.How would someone go about creating a tool or utility or "helper app" for a project? For example, a command line version of the program, which is a separate executable, but obviously would be distributed as part of the main program? Maybe I want to integrate a feature into windows where the user can right click on a certain file and choose "convert" from the context menu, where "convert" would open the helper app, which would read the file and save an updated copy of the file (converting from one file format to another and saving the result) without the user needing to wait for the main program to load, wait for the interface to be configured, then wait for the file conversion. The helper app would not need to display an interface to the user - just convert and save the file.
In my VB .Net code, I am trying to create to launch MS Project Application. Dim prjApp As Microsoft.Office.Interop.MSProject.Application = New Microsoft.Office.Interop.MSProject.Application
But I am getting the exception as follows:
"Creating an instance of the COM component with CSSID {36D27C48-A1E8-11D3-BA55-00C04F72F325} from the IClassFactory failed due to the following error: 80010001".Note: This exception happens in 64 bit Windows 7 German OS. But the same code runs successfully in 32 bit Win XP (German and English) and 64 bit Windows 7 English OS.I have even tried the following steps in German 64 bit Win 7
1. Running the application in Administrator mode 2. Setting UAC to low. 3. Re-installing MS Project in German 64 bit Win 7.
I'm creating an Addin, specifically to MS Project 2007. This Addin create a toolbar with a button that will allow user to export his project to excel sheet in MS Excel 2003 or 2007.
