IDE :: Can't Use The Button Under 'Generate Local Resources'
May 29, 2008
why can't I use the button under 'Generate Local Resources' (it's disabled everytime) located under Tools.I'm developing a .NET 3.5 Web project and using Visual Studio 2008 Professional?
I am creating a project in which i need a background image for every form in VB 08,initially i took the images as embedded resource and had a problem so then i replaced them as local resource, now,my question is that when i install my project on different computer will it display the background image.
I have a file in my resources in visual basic 2010, when the user clicks a button i want the file to be saved on the c drive.How can i do this?the file is not a txt file.
I have a simple windows Forms application where in I have a usercontrol called "MyControl" derived from PictureBox.
In this MyControl, I have the following code :
Sub New() MyBase.New() Me.BackgroundImage = My.Resources.MyImage 'This is a project resource image End Sub
Now when I drag and drop this MyControl into a form, I get the image and also those stuff. But the problem is that the BackgroundImage is being copied into the Form's local .resx file.So when I look into the form.designer file, I find the following :
atm i have this If TreeView1.SelectedNode.Name = 2 Then WebBrowser1.Url = My.Resources.Welcome End If
and it doesn't work so if you could please provide an example that world be grate.Also i don't really know how the treeview control works, i know with the combo box or listbox you just have an index of 0, 1, 2, 3 etc. but with the treeview you don't any just one of the things i want to do is whenever the root node is selected i want it to deselect that and select the node that i specify like node.name = 2.
When I was using ASP.NET I used to build a page and then run Generate Local Resource and it would build a resx page with all my strings. Is there a way to do this with VB.NET?
I had created two button for the previous and next function. I think my logic is correct and the programming did not have any error but still, i failed to navigate through the data.[code]The problems are when i hit the next or previous button, it did not jump to the respective record and it keep on showing the 'end of record' or 'beginning of record' as programmed.
It allows a user to click a button which will then cause a label to be created on the form with w.e was in 'txtdescription' (A textbox that the user can type into)
The PROBLEM with this is if you change the text and/or click button1 again, it will technically create a new label in that spot.
What should I do to make it so each time button1 is clicked, the label that is generated will appear below each other.
1. I need a button to be clicked and generate a random number2. I need to take said random number and store it in a place where I can access it from a timer.3. I scan for a webpage and if the webpage is true then I need to output said random number. One time
I'm using resources in VB.NET(2008) to manage my files and have 3 icon files that need to be on 3 buttons on my form (clicking the button changes the icon of the form tot the pressed button)
ICO_1.ico ICO_2.ico ICO_3.ico
but when I try the code below i get the error that "Value of type system.drawing.icon cannot be converted to system.drawing.image" any idea what's wrong?
Im making a site in Visual Studio using vb and I have a variable in page_load but need its value in the event handler of a button for passing on session.
Would it be possible to add a .exe to my resources and when the user clicks a button on the form it will create a directory ( C:My apps ).then add the .exe from my resources and launch the .exe from that folder.
Don't know how to copy images to resources file on VB and create background change button. I am trying to add my graphics folder to the resources folder in my project but I get some kind of error. That's the easy question. Now, I have a panel container in which I want to show an image that will be change about 5 times when I click on my background change button. What codes do I need to use for this?
In html it's easy to get a button to get an file on your local hard drive but I can't seem to find or remember how to do it for a VB application (using Visual Basic 2010). What I would like is for the button to find a local directory, select it and then add the address to a textbox.
I have been trying to figure out how to do this program for a few days. Here is the question.Write a Windows application that allows the user to enter a seven-letter combination corresponding to that number in a multiple line TextBox when the user clicks the Generate Words button.Avoid phone numbers with the digits 0&1.
I got some help from my instructor but I can't get anything in the listbox?
I am working on an Infopath form for a work ticket. I am trying to write some code to generate the ticket number when a button is pushed. I have the code to acctually create the number, but I'm not sure how to place the ticket number into the textbox on the form. The code I found on the web seems to generate a security exception.
Public Sub generateTicketNumber_Clicked(ByVal sender As Object,_
i've created a hangman game (Fully working) but since you can only "play" with one phrase (10 letters) it gets boring fast. Basic the current game works by on form load i define the slots (10 string which each hold a letter) and give them there letter. then the user type in a text box and if the textbox = any of the slots then the lbl repasenting that slots changes its text from "_" to the letter.
Anyway what I would like the button to do is when the user presses the start button a random number is generated. The program then looks into a textfile and based on which number is generated it takes a certain line (10 characters per line in a phrase) , moves them into the slots and the game starts. Is that possible to code or it too complicated. The textfile will be in the applications folder (words.txt).
i'm unable to debug my project that i made. i save it and everything, but it just won't playit says Warning 1 Could not find type 'WindowsApplication1.My.Resources.Resources, Time table'.

Does anyone know how this can be done? The problem is that when you run the script to add a domain user to the local group as a local user you have no permissions to query the domain. Is there a way to pass a user name and password when doing this? [code]...
If I can generate a list of random integer with a click of the button and put the results in a list box using VB.Net but how do I randomly change several integer number generated by button 1 by clicking button 2? How I retain the results of button1 and change the results when clicking button2?I try before but the two button function code cannot relate to one another.
error: the item "objdebugassociateassist.frmdbsetup.resources" was specified more than once in the "resourceS" parameter. duplicate items are not support by the "resources" parameter.
I don't understand. Till now this little app was working ok. Error1 The item "objReleaseRadni_nalozi.GlavnaForm.resources" was specified more than once in the "Resources" parameter. Duplicate items are not supported by the "Resources" parameter.Radni nalozi What gives?
Currently I am just assigning my files as strings, and I know this is the wrong way of doing it. If I want my program to read one of my resource files as text, how would I do that?
I've been working with VB for some time using my.resources.I recently installed it on a new computer(Windows 7 ),everything works fine...well almost.
I'm trying to teach my cousin how to change images in an image box using a button.I did it on my computer and it worked,but it wont work on his.Exact same code and images.
Here is what I did:
After having everything set-up I import the 2 images I want to use.
Then inside the click event for the button I write picturebox1.image = my.resources.picture1 "and here is where it doesn't work.It says I don't have any images in my resources named that.Instead it gives me two options Culture and ResourceManager but it doesn't show any of the images I previously imported.
*picture1 is the name of my image
I have no problem with the code(it works),I don't get why it's not seeing the imported images on my cousin's computer.
I need to be able to run a .exe within the resources i have a .exe i built a while back in vb6 and i need to be able to run it from resources so in the final installation build it would run properly on every computer that it installs on.
I am a beginning programmer and having a problem with picture boxes and resources which I want to use on the opening screen/form of a program. I have 4 arrays, each with 25 pictures(JPG); I want 4 pictures to appear on the form and to scroll through them using the form load event or a button. The problem however is I get build errors when I have more than 6 pictures in each array. the pictures load if there are 6 or less; more and it's a problem. I have considered some sort of corrupted picture but have changed pictures and get the same result.Is there a limit to the amount of memory that can be committed to resources?
