Loading An Array List On Form Load?
May 8, 2009
Okay, so I have been developing my own MP3 player recently, and now I thought I would make the player remember what songs were in the playlist when it shut down. It now remembers the playlist file that was used last, but I would still rather make it so that it remembers all the songs without saving the playlist.
I've been using a setting to save the playlist file, but when I try this:
...it doesn't work. The savedSongs is a System.Collections.ListArray. Heres the code at Form_Load I'm using at the moment.
Dim loadSongs As New System.Collections.ArrayList
loadSongs = ExperimentalPlayer.My.Settings.savedSongs
lbl_songname.Text = ""
[Code].....
Should I use some other kind of variable to save the filepaths? Well, the other option is that I use a text file for that, but I'd rather make it like this.

what's the best way to stop a form from displaying in its Load event.I initialise a form using the following code:
Dim MyForm as new MyCustomForm
In the Load event of MyCustomForm, I ask the user to select a folder and use that to populate a listbox on the form.folder.If the user presses Cancel instead of selecting a folder, I don't want to display the form. Right now, I just call Me.Close in the Load event, but that still causes the form to briefly appear and disappear in the background. Also do I need to call Me.Dispose?

I am trying to make a MVP kinda system and I am trying to define and load an array, through the system. Then read it out and it should populate a ListView1 object.I know they are set correct, because the console tells me it's set ok.I know the sample would fill with the same item (a week to be exact) every time i add an item, but that's not the point.Also, is it possible to define the array without the index, i mean now i set it with (6) so it sets 6 blocks for strings, but I would like to be more flexible. Is there a way like in php for example
$item["firstname"]
$item["lastname"]
...
ClientlistItem.vb (definition of the actual item)
Public Class ClientlistItem
Private entry(6) As String[code].......

I am trying to learn about arrays and the for next..loop. This is a noob question but I cant seem to get it to work. I am trying to load an array with 30 numbers that print to a list box.
Dim a(29) As Integer
Dim strVar As String = "{0,-5}{1,5}{2,5){3,5}{4,5}"
Dim x As Integer
[Code].....
For some reason I keep getting errors in the output statement that says "Input string was not in a correct format."
The output should list 1 to 30 in the list box

How can I get my application to load the Sub Main at the start rather than loading a form on start up.
I have tried declaring 'Public Sub Main' on my forms and in some modules, yet in my project properties, it is not one of the options.

My screen tends to seize for a few seconds while the list boxes are populated.I moved the call to the List Populate procedure to the form's shown event.This improved the performance slightly but not enough.Is there a method whereby I can ensure the form is fully loaded and displayed before the lists are populated?

I have a program that will compare an array of grocery list items glist and an array of coupon item clist.When I compare the two and if there is a match somewhere in the array I want to have a picturebox visible.When there is no match, I want the picture box not to be visible. [code] The code seems to work great until I come to the else statement.When the code finds a match it displays the picture box and the msgbox without error, but as soon as the message box is cleared, even though i've input it as an ELSE statement, the picturebox goes false again.Does anyone have any idea of how I can "hold" the picturebox to stay visible while the match between the arrays exists?

The insertion part of the form works great. But my problem is in the form load part......If i leave a field blank(Null),then perform Save operation,close the form after successful insertion and then reopen the form,then it retains the previous values during the form load......This is only in case where i leave a field blank in the previous data entry in the database.......But if i enter values in all fields then form load is working great.

I have this application that fetches huge chunks of data from databases and i would like to have a loading screen, or simple image (gif) appearing on top while the app is working... but what normally happens is the whole application locks up. How can I make a certain part of my application still responsive while the rest loads?

I made two applications the first one calls the other. But the other application takes time to load. Even on a fast Pc. So i was thinking of adding a loading form to it. For example when the other application is done loading the loading form goes away.

I have 3 combo boxes on a form. They are all going to load the same list. This list is in a database. My first thought was to attach the list to the combo boxes as a datasource. That would require me to create the datasource 3 times to load the same list. To me that seems terribly inefficient. If I attach all 3 combo boxes to the same datasource (list object) then when one cboBox value changes, they all change. So my thought is to load the list once into a list object, then create a loop that loops through each item in the list and adds it to the 3 combo boxes.

why my code doesn't work? I want the array elements to be loaded into a listbox when the button is clicked. Is it because not all elements in my array have been filled? I've tried putting the array declaration as a global variable and as a local one (below), but the same error occurs as soon as the button is clicked - "ArgumentNullException was unhandled".
Private Sub btnLoadCustomerNames_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnLoadCustomerNames.Click

I have a Customer File, and want to serach through the customer file to find a customer. I want to be able to Load the data into an array, and then from that array into the list view. BUT i don't want all of the feilds. I only want 3 (out of a total of 7), CUST ID, FNAME, Lname, etc. When the user clicks on the searched Customer, it then displays that customer in the form.
What I am not sure about doing is loading the file into an array
Edit: The file is a .dat file. I will happily attached my form if someone requires it
EDIT2: Can't count to 7
