IDE :: Description Pane Hidden At Bottom Of Properties Window In VB 2010?
Jun 11, 2012
At the bottom of the Properties window in the Visual Basic 2010 IDE, there should be a brief description of the selected property. For example "Text: the text associated with thecontrol". But it's reduced to a height of 0 so far as I can tell, and I haven'tfound a way to make it visible. Right-clicking the Properties window and selecting/checking"Description" has no effect. How do I make this pane visible?

In windows explorer on Windows 7 (and Vista I believe), when you click on a file the bottom pane shows the files metadata. What I am particularly interested is the files Tag. If you click into the tag field, Windows will give you a list of tags. The list appears to be random and incomplete. So I have two questions. Is there a way to retrieve a list of a file tags on the system and is there a way to add to the list of tags in the Windows file pane?

In order to have a description for a property of a custom control to be shown in the Property Grid and also in the Object Browser, should I use a Description Attribute and also a Comment? This appears to be redundant, is there a way that the Object Browser displays the Property Description?

I'm designing a custom toolbox component. Some of the public properties are interdependent. At present, when the user changes one of these values in the Designer, the dependent value doesn't update until the user clicks on it. Does anyone know how I can "refresh" the Properties window to show the new value of the dependent property?

I need to migrate from Excel 2003 VBA to Excel 2007 VBA. When Microsoft introduced Excel 2007 it removed many objects from the previous versions and added some new objects. Also it hid some properties of particular objects. These hidden properties can be viewed by going to the object browser, right clicking any object and selecting "Show Hidden Members". My problem is I need to access these hidden properties. Is there any way I can access these properties. I can successfully migrate from Excel 2003 VBa to Excel 2007 VBA with the same functionality?

I have application with 2 forms (Form1, Form2), when i click in a button in form1, form2 open.when form2 opened & I switch to other window and try to switch back to my application (By clicking in its icon in taskbar), it switch to form1.I need when form2 open & click in taskbar, it switch to form2 & also when form2 open I can't edit or type anything in form1.Exactly the same as the below scenario in windows:when I open any new window from "Windows Properties" (Right click my computer), and switch back to windows properties, it will switch to the new window not to the main Windows properties window

On the left half of my screen I have a datagridview. On the right half I have a document preview pane.As I change rows on the left half, I use the CurrentCellChanged event to open the document associated to that row in the previewer.This works fine, however, the focus is then placed in the preview pane which prevents the user from being able to use the arrow keys to step down a row at a time.To combat this, I made the final event in my CurrentCellChanged routine set the focus back to my datagridview. Unfortunately, even this doesn't always work because of what seems to be a timing issue.If the document to be previewed takes more than a fraction of a second to open, the code to move the focus to the datagridview is executed but after the image completes drawing, the focus is moved back to my previewer.I don't want to use a timer to force a delay and a DoEvents causes me some other issues.Is there some other event I can use to determine when my preview pane is complete and then and only then set the focus back to my datagrid?

If my window is hidden or out of focus, how do I detect a keypress? The idea is that it just sits in the tray as an icon until a key combination is pressed and then it pops back up again.

ok when my program is running from scratch I have a piece of code that just says if the size is this.. then make this.. else make this.. so it just makes is small and big..after you close it.. it hides itself in the sys tray... if you bring back out of the system tray.. and click the button to make small or big.. does nothing.. it come out of the sys tray as the large size.. and wont go small again..
does something on the form get set when you hide it ? that needs to be unset to let it resize it ?

usually with C#, though the controls I'm using for this project are VB. Usually I work with programming backend robust applications, but of course when I do a simple website for a friend is when I cant figure out the problem. I'm using a VB master page for the site. The "wood" div is supposed to be a background image that repeats dynamically as far down as the page goes, but for some reason it only goes as far as the browser window height. The background-repeat:repeat-y doesnt seem to do anything, so I feel like the problem has to do with the CSS. Here's the master page:

I am upgrading from Access 2003 to Access 2007. I found this page on the MSDN library http:[url]....Some of my code uses some of these properties that according to this page are "hidden" in 2007. So exactly what does "hidden" mean? Does this mean I can still set these properties in code or does this mean that Microsoft has not fully removed them but their functionality is dormant in Access 2007?

I have this Quiz software that lets you create online multiple choice quizzes which are great for studying (I am in grad school and I'm trying to use everything I can to learn). So the Quiz software is great but it only lets you input questions by hand, one by one. I took a look at the .xml file that the quiz program spits out and came up with the idea to try and make a converter so that I can import many questions at once. I was hoping to try and solve this limitation by doing the following:
Take a .doc that say a tutor gives us with a bunch of practice questions, and then take that into Crimson Editor, and then format it so the question is on line 1, the multiple choice answers are on lines 3,4,5, and 6, (for the next question, the question would be on line 11, and the answers on lines 13, 14, 15, and 16, and so on) and then take that saved .txt file into my program, hit the generate button, and it will spit out the .xml file, and then import that into the quiz software to generate the online quiz.
Here is an attached screenshot of my program layout so far:
I figured out how to open a text file by watching simple youtube tutorials, but I don't know how to have it generate the stuff and have it show up in the bottom text box. I know how to do the coding to convert the txt to proper xml code but I don't know how to be able to save the contents of the bottom text window to an xml file.

In the form design I set up a TableLayoutPanel, 20x20 cells and in cell (1,1) a PictureBox (called Target) containing the image of a small target. The properties box for Target shows some very promising properties, Column and Row - and if you overwrite the values in the properties box, the PictureBox obligingly shifts to the corresponding cell position in th design. However in VB it is not possible to refer to Me.Target.Row or .Column - neither appears during coding in the menu of properties, and deliberately coding either of them produces an error like
Error 1 'row' is not a member of 'System.Windows.Forms.PictureBox'.
1. Why does the properties box show properties that cannot be altered programmatically?
2. How can my program move Target around in the TableLayoutPanel?
