I am currently making a game with multiple levels when you complete one level the form hides and shows the form for the next level. But the keydown event doesnt work on the second level. How can I make it work?

1. Add PropertyGrid to a form in a new Windows Forms Application
2. Add follow Code
Private Sub PropertyGrid1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles PropertyGrid1.KeyDown
MsgBox(e.KeyCode)
End Sub
3. Run the project
4. Click a key and where is the msgbox ?
I have a class that is a downloader (I didnt make it). You create an instance of it like so:
Dim _Down As New WebFileDownloader_Down.DownloadFileWithProgress(URL, Location)URL and Location are replaced by strings. This all works fine. But when I try to download multiple files, it doesn't work, I just add this bit for another file to be downloaded:

i try to resize the picturebox according to the image size.for example if the image width is more than 500 then change the sizemode to stretch and then resize the width to 500.i am using a timer for doing this but i think it's unnecessary and stupid. and also it doesn't work well.
View 3 RepliesI have an issue with my .NET application and it can only be reproduced sometimes and only on client's location, which makes it extremely difficult to resolve. In the application the forms authentication is used. There is a login page to which every anonymous user is redirected. After user enters username and password, it redirects to DefaultURL or some predefined page. The problem is that sometimes when user enters correct username and password, it doesn't login, instead it just refreshes the login page without any error messages. After several tries of inputing username and password, user is able to login to the system.
See my login page Submit_Click code below:
Dim userName As String = tbUsername.Text
Dim password As String = tbPassword.Text
Dim returnUrl As String = Request("returnUrl")

In Key Press Event i have put the logic of search in textbox, when i press enter key it will take the values from textbox and brings the data in DataGrid.In another event of GotFocus there is an logic of autocompletestring collection from Table. If i type a in that textbox it will shows all the suggested string in that.If i comment the logic of GotFocus Event for textbox for autocomplete suggestion then only then Key Press events work else its not working.

I have a form created in VB.net. It is used to get some information form a user. The form is not bound to any data source.
A combobox on this form is used to enter a cost. I want the value entered by the user to be displayed using currency format. I have used the Format String Dialog that opens from the ellipses button on the FormatString property of the combobox and selected Currency. This put C2 into the FormatString property.
When I run my application, this format is not applied to the value entered into the combobox at the time the number is entered or when I leave the combobox.
I have a test app driven by bluetooth serial events In my form load code I hide the cursor so it doesn't get in the way of pictures (fullscreen) When one event is called by bluetooth, it brings up a msgbox and the user has to click OK. I tried Windows.Forms.Cursor.Show() but it doesn't work.
I'm guessing it's something to do with delegates and events and the form, but the debugger doesn't complain at any point. It just refuses to show the cursor. How can I get my serialport event to show the cursor? And then hide it after?
I have the following code and I can't get the lost focus to work.

i was doing a fair amount of programming many years ago, like 10 it feels like, so I'm sorely not up to date on how my newly downloaded Visual Basic Express expects me to communicate with it.I am writing a program that pulls a cell from a database after the user has gone through several forms to determine which cells they want. When I write it like that, it doesn't sound very efficient, but I've designed it this way for usability.Here's where I have a problem: Should I store the path the user takes in a string, an array, what?
Here's an example:Someone wants baseball stats and trivia. They run my program, main form pops up, they select National League button, the NL Form pops up. Now the way my program is set up right now, is there are two ListBoxes on the form, one is populated, and as the user selects a Team from ListBox1, it jumps to ListBox2. Once they've selected all the teams they want info for, they click a button Next.
What I now need the program to do is show the next form "Team: name" once for each team, and insert the name of the team on the form in the appropriate label which I'll have blank. This form will also do the Listbox thing except the first listbox will populated with Topics like HR Stats, Pitching Stats, Coach History, etc.
i've been working with multiple forms. here's the situation.. i have 2 forms form1 and form2 every time i show the form2 from the cmd Bttn in form1 then i close and reopen it again it always prompts me with disposal error.

I have two forms frmMain and frmNew, and one module modMain. In modMain I hold public variables which are needed for application. My question is how to open and close those two forms when needed? I ask this because if i set frmMain as startup form, then when closed, application will end, and one of those two forms will always be displayed. Also if I set frmNew as startup form, then when I close this form, application will also end. Is there a way to do this from module or something so my application won't end after closing and opening any of those two forms?

I have an application that has multiple forms. The "main" form within this application can be accessed from other forms. However, each time this "main" form is accessed throughout the application, a "new" instance is created, resulting in multiple instances of this form being open.
I would like to have "only" one instance of this form open at one time. If it is currently opened, I would like it to be brought to the forefront, instead of opening a new instance.
I need to open a form 6 times, I have the following
[Code]...
But when I click the button 6 times all the 6 forms open, but when I close one and click in the button to open again (since I only have 5 opened) the compiler says that I need to sure that the object isn't in use before using it again.
I want to open explorer to a specific destination but both shell() and process.start() are not opening explorer. They both open other applications like calc and notepad though. It works fine when debugging but not after I publish.
View 6 Replieshow to have all forms have the same on closing event with the exception of one form (Form1). I want the forms to show Form1 when one of the other forms is closed. I know there is a way to do it, I just can't work out how.
My code at the moment assumes that each form will have a boolean declared on it as false that will only turn true if you use a legitimate way off of the page (i.e. a regular button on the form). If you instead click the exit button on the title panel it will find the boolean is false and show Form1.
So the only problem I really have is getting the code to apply to all forms without writing it for all of them.
I have an application that requires data be entered, and after entering, a button is clicked to process that data. Clicking the button works just as it should--the data is processed properly. In constructing a test module, I provide a set of data values, followed by:
btnWhatever.PerformClick()
Nothing happens. I have used this syntax for years, and it has always worked flawlessly. I have triple checked everything else and isolated the problem to the failure of the PerformClick(). The PerformClick() is in a test subroutine that does nothing but fill textboxes and labels with default data, then calls the PerformClick() on the button to begin processing. Again, the button works fine, the data is entered as it should be, but the PerformClick() does not fire the click event.
I found that when group by multiple values does not work well with VB.NET, but it works well with C# ,here are my code, is there something wrong with my VB.NET Code? Here is my VB.NET code:

I have a main form, and some sub forms, and each sub form can have some sub forms. When I have multiple sub forms open, and I try to get data from the parent form, it returns the data from the wrong parent form.For example I have two instances of Mainform.subform running. If I do something like this in a child form of one instance of the subform. It returns data from the other subform.
dim l = Mainform.subform.listofdata
Edit:I am using visual Studio 2008. Winforms, form designed using designer. In my mainform I am doing this
Protected Friend frmMain as Mainform
frmmain = new mainform
In frmMain I am doing this
Protected Friend frmsub as new Subform'
frmsub = new subform

I want to raise an event for an opto-input state change but not sure if I can. Basically I have 4 opto-inputs on a PCI control card - one of which changes pretty rapidly - that I currently poll with a timer. I'm looking at getting a proper hardware counter for that but the other 3 are production status indicators. I'd prefer it if they alerted the app to a state change though.
Depending on the state of one of the inputs I have to fire a relay which simulates a button push. Having been playing with serial ports and getting a very useful app built for logging production data into a SQL Server DB I want to re-visit a proof-of-concept system I built a few months ago.
Current code - which works fine - but I'd like to change is like this:
Private Sub tmrOptoInput_0_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles tmrOptoInput_0.Tick
'Read OptoInput_1 to Monitor Track State...
Dim aType As Byte ' replace Byte with any other type
[code].....
Having 4 inputs so I need 4 timers, plus another one that polls the database and checks a status flag which triggers the app to start logging. I'd like it to be event driven rather than timer driven if at all possible but I don't know how and there's nothing in the control card docs. Also I can't seem to find anything relevant on the web.

Has anyone succeeded in creating a class library solution/project in VB.net VS2010 4.0 Net Framework for COM to run on WindowsXP Excel 2003. I created a dll which changed specific data in an excel worksheet. The dll worked just fine on the development computer but wont work on any other. I downloaded .NET 4 framework onto the target PCs and used RegAsm.exe to register both the .dll and .tlb files in the registry. That worked OK and the dll is visible as a reference in excel and can be ticked. The error message I get is RunTime Error -2147024894(80070002): Automation Error The System cannot find the file specified.
I also tried creating a Setup and Deploy project in the original development solution but this created just a vbproj setup file which the target PC cannot read (no VS installed), I hoped the project would create an EXE file I could use. Does anyone know any links that describe how to do this type of stuff as most links I have tried are either for Windows Forms projects are are way above my knowledge. Maybe someone out there has already succeeded with this sort of activity?
I have Visual Studio 2010 Express Edition. I'm using it to evaluate functionality before purchasing the real thing, but I'm having trouble. I want to build a DLL that can be used on PCs other than my development PC, that I can call from VBScript.
I follow the hundreds of examples out on the intranet and things still don't work.I have built a simple HelloWorld DLL with a function that returns "Hello World".I've been through all the stuff about making the assembly COM visible, and the threads about Register for COM Interop checkbox missing. One person suggested editing the .vbproj file and adding a tag to turn on Regiser for COM Interop (which was not needed because it was already there).
Anyway, if I build my project and run my VBScript:
Set testdll = CreateObject("HelloWorld.Class1")
wscript.echo testdll.HelloWorld()
Everything works great. But....if I copy the DLL to another PC and register it with RegAsm, the VBScript fails with a "File not found" error on the CreateObject line of the VBScript.
In fact, if I unregister the DLL on my development PC and then register it with RegAsm, the VBScript now fails on my development PC. RegAsm said everything was okay and if I look in the registery using RegEdit, things look good, but it still doesn't work. The only way to get it to work again is to rebuild the DLL (which in turn, registers the DLL).
I'd like to be able to build a DLL which I can be registered and used on other PCs (without requiring those PCs to have Visual Studio 2010 EE and without requiring them to have the source and build the DLL).
