I know it's simple to do in C#, but what is the command to jump between If/End If marks in VB.Net like you can jump between braces in C#?
(C#-version of this Question: Go to Matching Brace in Visual Studio?)

I would like to know if its possible, and if so how, to use VB.NET to automate a keyboard shortcut. In the application i am developing, it receives email as a outlook addin and runs various checks and if those checks are positive it inserts information about the message into the database. But i want to be able to tell it that when the subject = "Keyword" to perform Ctrl+Alt+Up for, essentially a prank. However - I can't find anything on this anywhere, all i find is "Custom Short-cuts In VB.NET" and stuff about the KeyDown, KeyUp and KeyPress events.

In VB Classic, VBA and also in Visual Studio you can dbl click close to the left hand margin of a block of code and it will select the whole of the current block (sub, function etc). In Visual Studio this clickable area is adjacent to the line numbers on the left.Is there a keyboard shortcut that will do the same job? that is, select the "current block".

View 1 RepliesA VS 2005 VB.net forms app has suddenly started misbehaving. When I debug the debugger is jumping all over because the code is not matching. I have tried to clean both the solution and the project and rebuilding everything. I've checked I'm in debug mode. I've checked the debug settings to ensure that "require files to match..." is ticked. I also deleted all the temporary files form the solution. I even tried renaming the code file and class name of the problem file but without success. What else can I try?
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to make a WM6 version of this simple windows app, and I have some certain problems. Under a timer event I have several instances like this (don't ask why timer and why this way, it just works in my case):
Code:
If ent1.Focus = True Then
ent2.Text = Math.Round(((ent1.Text) * 3), 1)
End If
[Code].....
It didn't work under WM6 so I've changed it to ent1.Focus.
Anyhow, the problem is that under WM6 focus is jumping around with the timer, i.e. different textboxes become active every timer iteration making it impossible to work with the program.
I need help getting the gravity/jumping to work for my game. I have a progress bar, and 3 timers (im sure you'll know what they are by looking at the code). I get no errors but at the same time, nothing is happening. I have the walking animation and the movement for left and right already down so don't worry about that. I just to figure out how to get this jumping shenanigans to work. if you reply, please reply with some code, ive had some bad problems with threads getting unanswered because of this. [Code]

View 2 RepliesI have made an information display that is split in two parts. The right part shows a jpg converted document with picturebox and VB.Net. The picture changes if there is more documents to show. The left part is a webpage that is opened from the VB.Net program. It contains two xml newstickers in flash from [URL]. Both parts are feeded from a sql database. Everything works but I have a little problem with the newstickers. Everytime the right part with jpg converted document change document the newsticker scroll is jumping. Is there somebody who know a way to decrease the impact on the scrolls then I change document in the picturebox? Can I run the webpage in a other process or something? Or must I find another newsticker ?
View 2 Repliesso my goal is to get a picturebox to move in random directions and smoothly (like a character moving straight in a game) without using thread.sleep and me.refresh (and also without animation atm). Would anyone be able to guide me on how to accomplish this?The reason I want to do this is because when I need to use like 3 threads to move 3 different things around smoothly my computer slows down too much.here's my code now without all the other subs used to place the random code in it's own thread. There's a lot of other code too so I can't really post the entire thing:
Private Sub random_movements(ByVal e As Integer, ByVal speed As Integer, ByVal ctrl As Control)
Dim location_x As Integer = ctrl.Location.X

View 5 RepliesI have created a virtual keyboard like the "Windows onscreen keyboard". So, I have used the method sendkeys.But if I click on the button, it doesn't write nothing.
I think I have a problem with the FOCUS.As you can see, the "Windows onscreen keyboard" is always on top.This doesn't happen to my form. How can I do?
So here is my problem. I have a vb game with animated sprites and all, and the character even jumps. However it only works in the y direction. So if i'm moving, he stops in place and jumps, instead of jumping forward. I was wondering if someone knew how to make him move at the same speed forward during the jump.

I'm having an odd problem when making a form visible and not visible and it not continuing to function. Here is what I have happening. I have a main form (frmMain) that is an MDIParent. On this form I have a menu to open a second form (frmCalculate) and populate a listview from Items in the database.
As I click or select items in the listview on frmCalculate the tag is read and data is pulled based on the id stored in that tag and fills in various fields on the form. This works great. However, I also have a context menu attached to the listview that allows me to perform a "what if" scenerio on the items I am calculating. When I select this menu, I hide the frmCalculate and open the frmWhatIf form where I can mess around with values on the item I had hilighted in the listview on frmCalculate. Nothing is pulled from or written back to the database here, all the information is filled in from fields on frmCalculate. It just allows me to look at rising costs and how they will affect my margins.... anyway.
If I then close frmWhatIf, it brings my frmCalculate back by setting its visible propery to true (never closed frmCalculate, just hid it). At this point if I click an item in the listview I get an exception for a null reference. IF however I never hide frmCalculate, I can open and close frmWhatIF without ever having an issue. Why do I lose the functionality to select items just by hiding and unhiding the form? As a test I added two menus to the toolbar on frmMain one called hide and one called show. I then opened frmCalculate with original menu item to populate the listview and selected a few items to test that it was working and then using the hide menu I made the form invisible and the show button to bring it back. This yielded the same exception so without even opening frmWhatIf the problem still occurs.
Everytime I click and drag somthing to resize it (a button or text box for example) my view moves right to the center of my app draging the object with it.
