I have created a control in vb.net. Now I want that control to send some message(fire an event called recieve) and the parent application that implements it will have to create an even listener called recieve and do actions accordingly.
Declare Custom Events To Avoid Blocking, with more than one custom event. If I duplicate the Public Custom Event section and just change the event's name, then both events are called even if my code only calls one of them.

I have got an urgent question about creating an add-in for outlook 2007 using a VB.NET 2008.Does anyone know how to add a custom button to an Outlook toolbar?
I created an add-in that creates a custom toolbar for MS Project. This appears as "Add-In" on a tab after "File" and under the Add-In tab is a custom toolbar.The toolbar that has 9 items, each runs a specific macro. This works great using the mouse.The problem now is that I must make it usable to a blind person who cannot use a mouse. How do I position to the first menu item (without mouse) when opened and use the TabKey to move thru the 9 items and allow selection by hitting Enter.
I have a project with 150 (i counted) Items in the "MainProject Components" area of the toolbox panel.These 150 classes are mostly database related objects like table adapters, and datasets that i hardly ever use. I also have about 10 custom classes that i use often.When i need to access the toolbox, I have two issues that i would like to resolve.
1.How do i organize the toolbox to separate my custom controls from the table adapters and datasets?
a.I have created a custom tab within the toolbox. b.I have dragged and dropped my controls into this new area. c.All is well until I exit my program and re-open it. Voila they're all back in the MainProject Components" tab.
2.How do I force the IDE to instantiate the toolbox panel as completely collapsed?
How does one go about creating their own toolbar for Internet Explorer, or something along those lines? I've been doing some digging around the web, but nobody has really made it clear whether or not it's possible to do with vb.net. I tend to keep in mind that there is almost nothing that isn't possible in vb.net but that's almost.
I want to create my own toolbar/band for IE. I've searched all over and can only find a few small C++ or C# references but nothing in VB 2005. How to create this.
I have a Quick Launch Toolbar linked to a folder of shortcuts.In this folder I link other folders and applications that I use commonly.I'm trying to use WSH to create a shortcut to a folder in my Quick Launch toolbar, but the shortcut isn't being created correctly.I suspect my problem is that, evidently, Windows has two kinds of shortcuts to folders.Using Explorer,I navigate to my Quick Launch folder, and choose the File | New | Shortcut, supplying the name of another folder as a target, it creates the shortcut.Using Explorer, looking at the shortcut in the details panel, Win says the shortcut is of type "Shortcut". Looking at its properties, the type is also Shortcut, and looking at the Shortcut tab, the Target Type is "Folder" and the Target location is the path I supplied. Now create the shortcut another way.Locate the folder in Explorer, and right-click-drag it to the same Quick Launch folder, choosing to Create a Shortcut.Now, Explorer thinks the shortcut is of type "Folder" and looking at it's properties, the Type is Folder (Target Type isn't shown) and the Target does point to the real location.There isn't a Shortcut tab now either.Both are definitely shortcuts to the same folder (I've double-checked), but they work differently in Quick Launch.If you pull up the Quick Launch toolbar and hover over the second shorcut, Windows pops out a sub-menu that contains the folder's contents. However, there is no such functionality using the first shortcut, you would have to choose Explore from the right-click menu to view it's contents.
(Below, the "Work" dir is my Quick Launch toolbar's folder)Using WSH, I can create a shortcut that doesn't autoexpand as follows: Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")[code].....
I extended treeview, treenode, and nodetype so I could have custom nodes. Certain nodes have image buttons on them allowing them to add a child node or delete the node. I can't handle any of the events from my buttons.Public Class ContentTreeView Inherits TreeView Public Event OnAddChild(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Public Event OnDelete(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
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] .....
How to implement my own events I'm not sure why do I use them. I mean instead of rising event you could simply call functions right? This is as close as I got to a good reason: 1) If you call a function that does one thing and then based on result it needs to do something else it may be a good idea to do that something else in event function that is raised when that first thing was done. This way you avoid creating long functions and can make system more intuitive. 2) If object1 is inside object2 (a variable) and object2 has function DoThis and in that function affect something in object2's parent class it's better to use event in object1 rather than mess with parent (object1) inside object2.
This is what I would like to achieve:To create a custom messagebox, with varying number of buttons with custom .Text descriptions, and other features. I intended to have a property array that would be redim-ed and have values (.Text values) set by the calling class:
how to specify a custom icon for display in the toolbox window when you create your own custom control? Something other than the dreaded "gearbox" icon.
I'm trying to create a user control that will provide a draggable splitter between two panels — exactly like SplitContainer — in a custom IDesignerHost implementation. SplitContainer itself, as far as I can tell, is not an option; it will raise an exception unless used in Visual Studio's Designer.
My implementation would look roughly like this, except that I'm not receiving the necessary mouse events. I've tried event handlers, On* overrides and overriding WndProc in the user control itself, the host control, and the parent form, but I don't appear to receive WM_MOUSEMOVE, WM_LBUTTONDOWN or WM_LBUTTONUP events anywhere. Per this bug report, I should be receiving WM_MOUSEMOVE in "the control designer"; I'm not sure what that refers to in this case.

I have created a base class for some user controls, then I created controls that inherit this class. This is so I can CTYPE the inherited controls back to the base class and refer to properties, methods and events in a common interface. The base class declares has some Public Event BLAH(Sender as object, e as EventArgs) declarations. The derived class then has Public Shadows Event BLAH(Sender as object, e as eventargs) declarations. My parent form adds handlers for the BLAH event. When the derived class fires the event, though, it does not get raised to the parent form.
I want to add a custom property to a button in window form. Currently i am using following code to create my logic. but i want to create an enum value for a button control.
With VB.net, I'm coding a simple application to get more used to the new .Net format.
I'd like to save all the information to a 'new' database file. how to create a database on the fly, once that is done i'll be able to connect to it no problem, but actually creating the file is proving difficult to work/find out.
Also, with vb.net and the newly created custom file, how can it be made to automatically open that information with the program?
Is there a method in installation to associate the file type with the new program? How can i check when the program loads if a database file has been 'double-clicked' (rather than just running from the .exe of the program) and proceed to load the data?
EDIT1 - Extra InfoThe windows application has many different fields and content etc, then i need to save that to a file that could later be loaded by 'double clicking'. I assumed the easiest way would be to create a mini-database for each unique file
