I want to use Enter instead of Tab to choose from the intellisense list(This is in VB)From what I can se from this rather old post [url] it was not possible. Has anything changed from there? I use Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate.
View 4 RepliesI find that each time there is a new line when enter key is press in VB intellisense is annoying. Although space is ok, but each time it has a new space and I have to press return to remove it, which is also inconvienient for multiple selections.
View 1 RepliesDoes anyone know how I can setup visual studio to use the enter key to complete intellisense, but without moving the cursor to the next line? I use multiple other IDE's that work in this fashion, and VS is really throwing off my rythym with this.
View 4 RepliesWhen editing C# code in Visual Studio 2010, the ENTER key makes IntelliSense complete the current suggestion, without adding a new line. In VB.NET, the default IntelliSense behavior for the ENTER key is to add a new line after completing the current suggestion.
How can I configure IntelliSense to change the VB.NET behavior to the C# one?I already know that I could press TAB or SPACE, but out of habit I always end up hitting ENTER (and changing line).
I have many fields in the page and the last field is a dropdown with list of values. When I select an item in a dropdown and press Enter, it doesn't do the "Ok". Instead I have to manually click on Ok to Submit. How can I do by pressing Enter on my Keyboard rather than Clicking on "Ok" button after selecting the value from dropdown list. I have set the SubmitBehavior to true.
View 4 RepliesI have a windows app where I want to allow users to choose files from their computers/network and save the actual file into the database. I've done this before with web apps and here's the code that i've always used (with an html fileupload control)
Code: Dim postedFile As HttpPostedFile = Me.FileUpload1.PostedFile
' Validate If Not postedFile Is Nothing AndAlso postedFile.ContentLength > 0 Then Dim desc As String If tbDescription.Text = "" Then desc = "" Else desc = tbDescription.Text End If
[code]....
This code put the actual file into my database table. I was wondering if there was anything like that for windows applications.
Ok so I can't figure out how to make it so that on my application users cannot just click "submit" without choosing a radio/option button & filling out the username + password field ?? Using VB 08 BTW.
View 6 RepliesI am currently working on a family project which is based on "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" show. There is a huge diffrence between the show and my project. My project is a christmas edition and the goal is not to get money or something, since I will not add it... Erhmm... Let me get to the point. I have already designed a layout and scripted some things. I have about thirty questions but I do not want them to always spawn in the same array, if you know what I mean. I want the program to randomly choose one of those thirty questions and NEVER choose the same question in the same program run. By the way, there are four options on my project: A, B, C and D. I have got everything, I just need a code.

View 3 RepliesI have to create a form that I enter the price of gas each month over a year. I enter the price in a text box and click the enter button to send the price to a list box immediatley and use an array. I have the following code but I don't think it's working with the array correctly as it will let me enter the information but doesn't stop letting me enter after the 12 prices. I am really having a hard time trying to figure out how to set up this input for an array and make it all work.

I find myself frequently turning off Intellisense because it adds wrong choices to my code. For example if I try to type "i " (without the quotes) it causes "int " to be put into my code. If I type "for " it may put "form " into my text.
Reaching for the ESC key constantly slows down my typing. (It's such a long way to reach for small hands). Is there an alternative way to exit out of intellisense without the highlighted choice being placed into my code, or is a way I can define a different key for this purpose?
is there a way to enable IntelliSense for XML literals in VB9 (VS 2008)?The ideal source of IntelliSense is an XSD document, but I can use anything else format to do it.

View 9 RepliesI am primarily a C# developer; however, I am currently working on a project for a client who preferred VB.net. I have managed to switch over fairly well, with one frustrating exception. When editing a C# file in Visual Studio pressing enter will select an item out of the IntelliSense window and keep the cursor at the end of the selected statement.
However, when editing a VB file, pressing enter selects the item out the IntelliSense popup AND moves the cursor to the next line. I realize that this is a small thing, but it drives me crazy, because it makes it really hard to switch between C# and VB projects.
I have searched for everything I can think of in Google and found nothing. Does anyone know of a way to change the IntelliSense selection behavior?
Using lambda's in VB.Net results in no intellisense. Is this a bug with VS2010 or expected? Note that it works fine in C#
Return Array.TrueForAll(chequeColl, Function(x) x.Number <> "N") 'No intellisense Number does not appear
Return Array.TrueForAll(chequeColl, Function(x As MyClass) x.Number <> "N") 'Now casted intellisense appears
UPDATE: Here's an example
Public Class Cheque
Public Property Id As String
Public Property Status As Byte

In VB.NET projects, errors are highlighted immediately after cursor leaves the line. In C#, I have to wait several seconds for IntelliSense to highlight it. Also, the C# version doesn't show all project errors in "Errors List", unless you start to build it. Actually, it seems to work differently in every way. Is it possible to adjust that behavior?
I am using both Visual Studio 2008 and Visual Studio 2010.
I'm using coderush with vs 2008. coding in VB.net. I don't see any evidence of Intellassist, all i see is the usual VS intellisense. Is this normal? Preferred? Do most people leave the defaults or do most/some turn off vs's intellisense? Does intellassist somehow argument intellisence?
View 1 Repliesi know someone will say this belongs in database programming but i don't think this problem is to do with databases and is more to do with visual studio.
when i start to type oledb.oledb..... intellisense would usually give me an option for oledbcommandbuilder. in the current program i am doing for coursework this option is not given. i can choose oledb.oledbcommand but i do not know how to use it (too advanced for A-levels, yes i'm british) if i actually type oledb.oledbcommandbuilder visual studio does'nt show an error in my error list. so what is going on? how can i get visual studio to recognise oledb.oledbcommandbuilder?

I'm doing database development in Access 2003, and the Visual Basic portion of it is acting up. It seems to be "refreshing" itself constantly. Two very frustrating problems are occurring because of this: 1) Intellisense for properties and such pops up but immediately disappears and turns red and 2) it's automatically checking the syntax of lines before I can finish typing them.
The problem seems to be intermittant. Some forms in the database operate fine while others immediately turn the line red two seconds after I start typing. I am having this problem on both of the computers that I use on a regular basis.
I've added two labels to my form, named them appropriately, and then went to the code to do my thing.Intellisense is not picking up the 2 newly-added controls! I opened the .Designer.vb file for the form and I can see they are in there. I tried "cleaning" the project as well with no luck.
View 13 Repliesi want to create a view but when i'm typing CREATE the only intellisense that are are coming out are 'created', 'createobject', and 'createparams'
when i try to type 'create' only.. there is a wiggly line on that word..
One of the things I was doing was renaming controls on the form to understandable names and a couple of times I would use a variable name for a control on the form that I hadn't actually renamed yet and since I know what the name would be, I went ahead and coded the routines with the new name (knowing it would produce the compile errors) and when I was done, I switch to the form view and for whatever stupid reason it refreshed itself like it was re-compiling the form (I never clicked re-build, or build solution since I had those 16 compile errors) and VS didn't display the form, it displayed the error tab with the stack trace.... that became a huge problem because then I couldn't rename the control which would fix the compile errors. Why the heck is the IDE doing that?
It shouldn't be re-rendering the form, or if it does it shouldn't be erroring because I never re-built the project. I ended up renaming the variables to something that would compile, then I went back to the form, changed the name of the control and went back to the code window and noticed, I couldn't re-do the name changes. I don't know if a bug report has been sent to MS, but that's something they should probably fix.
I also noticed that the intellisense window can't be resized like I used to be able to.All-in-all I've had my first actual VS 2010 project and there's a lot of things that are bugging me about the IDE and I'm thinking of skipping this one and migrating from VS 2008 to VS 2012 (or whatever the next one is) when they've gotten the IDE more normal.
I have read that it is possible, but how do I use them in VS2008? I would like to start commenting class's commands and properties, but I can't find how to.[URL]

2) For a System.Windows.Form.SplitterPanel the Name property is not shown in either but you can still Get or Set it.

I don't know if it's possible, but i want to change some of the defaults intellisenses. For example when i write try and press enter, the IDE puts the catch ex as exception and the end try, but i want that the finally word it's added too.
