KeyPreview Does Not Work

Oct 2, 2009

In my WindowsFormApplication I have a ToolStripTextBox. I want this to get the focus and have all its text selected when the user presses the "i" key - no matter what control has the focus. That's easy, I thought, if I set the form's KeyPreview property true (originally I did this in the FormDesigner, but doing it in the form's Load eventhandler makes no difference) and have the following KeyDown eventhandler:

Private Sub Main_KeyDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyDown
Beep() ' For debugging only
Select Case e.KeyCode

[code]....

But this does not work!? The above Sub is called only when the ToolStripTextBox has the focus and only AFTER the event has been handled by that control.

Forms :: KeyPreview Stops Work After Some Control Is Disabled

Oct 20, 2010

I set the HourGlass, disable the button (to avoid ppl that are too used with FPS games), do the serial communication bit that last a couple of seconds, then the set the mouse back to normal and re-enable the button.And I have a few more like those through the software using text boxes or drop-down menus.[code]My form is set in design time to be KeyPreview = True and I even tried to set it again after the Click. The routine is simply not called and the ESC key on the keyboard does not hide the form anymore.

VS 2008 Form KeyPreview On Many Forms Of Large Application

Apr 11, 2012

As quick solution to the user wanting to be able to open a particular form from any other form (in a large application with many forms, not an MDI app), I added KeyPreview to each form and corresponding KeyPress event so that said form will open (ShowDialog) upon pressing F12 from all these other forms.

Since this update has been in place, the user has been getting intermittent (maybe 2 or 3 within the course of a workday) but nasty errors such as "exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation" and the dreaded "out of memory". Is there reason to believe (off the top of your head) that the KeyPreview could be causing this?

PerformClick() Doesn't Work - How To Make It Work

Feb 2, 2011

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.

Get VB App To Work In VWD?

Mar 28, 2011

I created a windows form application using Visual Basic Express Edition 2008 but I did not know I could not use it on the web, which is what I wanted but being new to VB I just got a lot of headaches trying to figure this out. It works fine as a windows app but now just recently I installed Visual Web Developer 2005 to so I could create a web application from the windows app.

It is a simple windows application of a datagrid but now I want to run the same design application I made in Visual Basic to Visual Web Developer Express 2005. Is this possible? And, what do I need to do? I have all of the associated files in my project folder in Visual Basic Express folder.

How Does Look-up Work In VB

Mar 14, 2011

how does look-up work in Visual Basic, I have done research on this but it does not explain. I have a Form1 called( Booking form) with 2 ComboBox's and 1 TextBox. each called (Destination_FromComboBox) and (Destination_ToComboBox) and (FareTextBox)and another form2 called (Fares Form) with 3 TextBox's each called TextBox1 (FromTextBox), TextBox2 (ToTextBox2), TextBox3(FareTextBox).So when I select (Booking Form) and Insert or select a Destination from (Destination_FromComboBox) and Insert or select a Destination To (Destination_ToComboBox) I want to read from (Fare Form/Fare Table) and give me the fare in FareTextBox on the Booking Form. Also on the booking I have 3 Radio Buttons

(RadioButton1 = 4 Seater Car, Normal Fare)
(RadioButton2 = 6 Seater Car, Time & HalfFare)
(RadioButton3 = 8 Seater Car, Double Fare)

But there is also a time Issue as well:

If the time is Between 05:00 & 23:59 then normal time should be used
If the time is Between 00:00 & 02:00 then time & half should be used
If the time is Between 02:00 & 05:00 then Double time should be used

I have watched loads of video's and looked through forums and other codes for the combination of the above, without success?

Using VB6 Don't Work On .net?

Oct 19, 2009

I have this great way to use VB6 I treated my project like a .exe file.Say I want to work on c:work directory.I just save as the .vbp file to c:work directory

All the other files (.frm,.bas,.cls) files are in a special directory called library ALL of my .vbp files, in c:work1, c:work2, c:work3 refer to that one same directory.How can I do that in vb.net?

Why this is important? Bugs always happen all the time. If I just run .exe file, when bug happen, I cannot do a thing. However, if I run the project file and run the program in debug mode, when bug happen I can figure out what happen.

Best Way To Work With RSS Feeds

Jan 23, 2010

I am a CS grad, but haven't had much to do with programming since my school days as I went the BA route.Anyways, there are a few things that I do manually on the computer and thought that I could probably save time by creating an application for them.But I'm not really sure how to start.I'd like to be able to keep a history of Completed eBay listing so that I know when the price point is good and when it is too high.I noticed that eBay has an RSS feed, so I think I can do it. Just a couple of quick questions:

1 - Can I instruct VB.net to open a web browser and read an RSS feed, or would I need to manually do this myself and then run the application?

2 - What is the best way to work with RSS feeds? Should I convert the data into XML first?

Can't Get Databases To Work

I recently moved over to a Windows 7 computer and I can't get databases to work with VB.net.Before I moved I used to do an Access database and connect it to VB through the ODBC thing. However, I don't have Access on this computer (open office) so I'm not sure how to create a database and connect it.I have tried to use the SQL Compact Edition that comes with Visual Studio but I not sure how to get it to work. Also would something like mySQL work with VB? I have looked at the mySQL workbench and like it, what else would I need to download to be able to use the databases created with it in Visual Studio?

Can't Get Dubug To Work

Feb 8, 2010

A VB 2008 program that I am developing suddenly has a problem when trying to debug with breakpoints. I set a breakpoint, but the program does not stop there. A small yellow icon appears by the breakpoint bullet and says (when moving the cursor to it) "The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document". Other applications debug ok with Visual Studio, so I suspect there is some setting for this one application that has gotten messed up.

Can't Get FileSystemWatcher To Work

Apr 7, 2011

I can't seem to get a FileSystemWatcher to work, this is what I currently do.

Private Sub FileSystemWatcher1_Changed(sender As System.Object, e As System.IO.FileSystemEventArgs) Handles FileSystemWatcher1.Changed
MsgBox("Directory has changed")
End Sub

I have the filesystemwatcher path in my desktop. But when I create, re-name or delete something in the desktop it dosn't do anything, not even giving an error. I filter FileName, DirectoryName and LastWrite (the defaults).

The FileSystemWatcher have the EnableRaisingEvents set to true. So don't really know what the problem is.

I've tried google without any luck, all I found was people having problem that the FileSystemWatcher executed twice.

So do I have to do anything more on the code to get it to work?

Instead of calculating and displaying the total of the array values, find and display the average age of your 10 classmates.
