View 2 RepliesI had an old program that I upgraded from VB6 to VB 2008. I am creating a program similar to it in VB 2008. There is a piece of code that I tried to enter into the program I am creating now from my old program. It tells the computer that if the label's text is a certain text that is on the clipboard, then the text size will be smaller.
If
LabelAbsent.Text = My.Computer.Clipboard.GetText Then
Label104.Font = VB6.FontChangeSize(Label10.Font, 8)
When I insert this code into my new program, it doesn't recognize the "VB6" in the code.
How can I get the same result in the program I am currently creating?
I have a form with some labels. If the labels equal certain text, then I want the font size of the label to change.For example, if the text reads "apple",I want the font size of the label to be 16.If the text reads "banana", I want the font size of the label to be 8.This has to occur during runtime without any clicking of the label.I have an idea of the code I want to write in order for this to work, but I need to know where to put the code for the labels.I cannot put this under Label_Click or Form_Load.Where can I put this code so that it works for the labels during runtime?

I wrote a simple Hello World form, and it is not impacted by the "large font" setting.

How would I create a label that reports a file size at all times? Or, on a regular basis, say every 10 seconds or so.
In my form, I want a label to watch certain file sizes (logs, etc.) in case one suddenly becomes too big.
It is easy enough to report a static file size when a form launches, but changing it dynamically...I don't know how to do that yet.
The following example is generic and simplified for illustration purposes.
The file is C:Applicationapplication.log
The label might include:
("The application.log file is {0} bytes.",GetFileInfo.Length)
or something like that. But that would report a file size once and never again unless I quit and restart the form.
If any .NET concept is used, can you provide a link to the documentation or msdn stuff?
