I am using VB.NET (version 2008). I have two types of items populating in a listbox (checked listbox). For example: lets say one is type "A" and other is "Type B". Their names maybe same so if the user sees those items in listbox then he won;t be able to determine their type until he click on them and checks out its properties. I wanted that I add each item to listbox and colour them so that blue for example means type "A" is there and red means the other. So this way I will be able to know at a glance that how many item of what type is present. I guess it may not be possible to do that in a standard checkedlistbox. I am also using component factory's krypton controls which enhance the gui of an application. But I dunno if I can progress using that.
View 5 RepliesSo I want it to remove any text in the list box that has a "Job" in it and just replace it with a blank nothing.
Like if the listbox looked like this
Yardjob
jobsong
redjob
then it would change it to this
Yard
song
red
I also would like a way of removing any blank items from the listbox.

I have a list of textboxs that are binded to a database.
When a user starts to type in one of these textboxs I draw a listbox right under that textbox that shows a list of other items in the field that start with the same keys.
IE, the user types in "Ni" and the list box will have "Nick" and "Nicholas" and so on...
That all works great but when I hit tab I want the next textbox to get focus and the listbox to hide.
If I just wait for the textbox to lose focus you can't do anything with the listbox because DOH the textbox just lost focus and the lsitbox hides.
This has led me in a circle of I'll try this and I'll try that for a while now.
I have listbox.tabstop set to false.
I've tried to manually set focus to the next textbox but the problem is that the listbox gets the focus that instant and all the gotfocus lostfocus code for the textbox is ignored.
I can't out right ignore the listbox getting focus.
I have a program which runs mainly though a NotifyIcon in the bottum right of my windows screen (XP). Whenever I open the ContextMenuStrip that appears when the icon is right clicked, a box also appears in the task bar. I also have nested menus inside the menu (mouse over one item leads to another menu), and each additional menu also creates a taskbar box upon appearing. So once I am at the third or fourth nested menu, there would be 3 or 4 windows appearing in the taskbar. After the menu disapears, so do the windows in the taskbar.How can I stop the taskbar from displaying boxes to represent these menus? I have done nothing in my code as far as I know to create this type of behavior. I have searched for similar problems but have found nothing similar. There is no "showintaskbar" property for these items as far as I can see, and no other property that I can find which would affect this. I have investigated the owner of the contextmenustrip since I read the owner may effect these type of behaviors, but that doesnt seem to be helpful as there isn't an owner property of the contextmenustrip.

View 3 RepliesI'm making an application that does some stuff involving the given subject, so this is very crucial to the completion and efficiency of my application.What I'm in need of today is simple (well, "seems" simple). I have one listbox that I want to populate with directories file's names. I don't mean the files inside the directories, but the names of the folders inside the directory.So, I have "c:empdog", I'd click on my button or whatever and search for the directory and I choose "temp", said listbox would show "dog".
UPDATE: Oh, BTW. It doesn't HAVE to be a listbox, it can be anything (IE: Textbox, Labels, Etc.).

Why is this code having the opposite effect? If It's checked in the checkedlistbox it's not check in my view, if it's not check in my checkedlistbox it is checked in the grid.
EDIT: More specifically. The CheckState.Checked is always the opposite. .Checked means it's not checked.

A 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
