View 1 RepliesBTW this issue occurs in any MS office program when the VB.Net (or even VBA) is processing information.Example: In Excel, a worksheet is displayed on the screen. I start either, a VB.Net or VBA procedure and within 30 seconds the Excel worksheet (previously displayed) blanks out. In both VB.Net and VBA,ScreenUpdating = False. My expectation is that the previously displayed screen would stay static as if I left my desk to get a cup of coffee; came back and the same ole Excel worksheet was still there?Of course, setting VBA Screen Updating = False accomplishes two goals: 1) speeds up processing and 2) saves the user from seeing unnecessary "garbage-processing" steps.Why does VBA or VB.Net ScreenUpdating = False not freeze the screen at the time of its invoking?
View 11 RepliesI have an application, when the user clicks on a button it will open the 'view form', which loads data from a database into a listview.This takes a while if there is alot of data in the database table.How do i create a loading screen (asuming i need to make a new form as the loading screen) which appears while the application is loading the data into the listview. And once the process is finish, the loading screen will close and the 'view form' opens.
View 7 RepliesI 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?
View 1 RepliesWhen i try to view MDIParent screen in designer mode I'm getting below exception...
`Could not find endpoint element with name 'NetTcpBinding_IMyService' and contract 'ClientProxy.IMyService' in the ServiceModel client configuration section. This might be because no configuration file was found for your application, or because no endpoint element matching this name could be found in the client element.'
Little background to understand my question more clearly...
I've a WCF server which I'm trying to consume in my Winform application. So i've created a separate class library in which i added service reference and created a proxy. I've copied the client endpoint info from app.config in class library to UI app.config file.
When i run the application everything is working fine but when i try to open MDIParent screen in designer mode its throwing above exception.
Note: I think i'm getting error because i'm trying to create a proxy object on NEW method (form constractor) if i comment that line - i'm able to view designer screen.
So I am nearning completion of my 7th major project And I need the application to load files into ram when the application starts..Almost like a splash screen but with a loading bar.I have to load over 90 JPG's And I would like to have them in RAM so the application isn't so slow at first IE System.Load(My.Resources.JPG1) And LoadingBar1.Value += 10 Etc, etc.I have a Form I have created as a splash screen..I need it to load all the JPGs before starting the application..
View 6 RepliesI have a few combo boxes that need to be loaded up once and displayed multiple times (whenever the main form is opened) The reason for this is because it's taking about 10 seconds for the form to load each time it's opened due to unnecessary re-querying. Here is an example of what I have as a combobox source and what I've done. I've put the query, connection, etc... in a module and call it on the login form - I don't get any errors but the data does not load into the combos.
'In Module
sql = "SELECT DIR_ID, DIR_NM FROM LTC_FBS_DIR ORDER BY DIR_NM ASC"

View 1 RepliesIm trying make my application display my splash screen for 5secs before loading my main form. I have read lots of threads on this and they all seem to point to the following:Add the following code to the New() sub of the splashscreen.
My.Application.MinimumSplashScreenDisplayTime = 5000
I have also seen a suggestion to add the following code to the OnInitilalize event in the ApplicationsEvents file.
Me.MinimumSplashScreenDisplayTime = 5000
I've have tried both ways, and although it successfully makes my splashscreen wait 5 seconds before closing, it doesnt prevent the Main form from waiting for the splashscreen to close before loading. The mainform simply loads over the top of the splashscreen.This thread is exactly what im after but i cant seem to get mine to work.

I have application framework enabled. I have my startup form set to my main form, and i have set my splashscreen in the application tab of my project properties. Im using VS2008.I also noticed that when i clicked on the "View Application Events" button in the application tab of my project properties, the file was blank. I have seen that some other people have had problems with this. I just cut and paste the following code into my ApplicationEvents file. Potentially an issue??? Any reason why the code was not auto-generated to begin with?

I am trying to create a program which reads data from a text file and insert the data in to a SQL 2005 table, but unfortunately it only reads the first line and insert correctly but not the rest of the lines on the text file
The text file looks like this
Test.txt

Micke, Gulm, 39, 07/08/1970

sort out this issue as I need read the entire text file which in reality will be about 5000-10000 lines and insert them in to the SQL DB line by line.
Is it possible to load an *.ico file onto a PictureBox ? I know I can use : PictureBox1.Image = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile("C:MyImage.jpg") but I'd like to use an icon . I have tried some other methods that read "Icon" , but I failed . Up to now the only thing I have thought is converting the file format form *.ico to *.jpg , but I think that's ridiculous ...

I have an xml file called "QuotesxmlDoc", in my program I have written code for a search screen that searches the xml file for titles or keywords in quotes saved and the information is then shown in a datagridview, see the code below:
Private Sub btnSearchQoutes_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSearchQoutes.Click
Dim xmlnav As XPathNavigator

On the main screen of the program, I want to show all the saved quotes from the xml file in a datagridview, I just need to show the date, category, author, title of the quotes, I also need the datagridview to refresh everytime a new quote is saved.
I've written the following sub to load a comma delimited file into my datagrid view but it's hanging up when it attempts to load the first two values into the cells of the datagridview. I think it's having trouble adding the cells to the datagrid. I have tried writting them directly using the .text of the specific row and cell but when I incremented to the next row it hung up because the row didn't exist (I think).

I have an application that reads data values (numeric) from a data file. Due to a change in data requirements, I need to put these into a paramArray so I can calculate the MEDIAN of the series of numbers. I have seen some of the MSDN examples and they are all good except they load the paramArray with ArrayName(#, #, #, #, #). That's OK for a simple example, but how do I load a paramArray while reading numeric data from an ASCII input file? The number (Ubound) of samples is usually 153 but can vary considerably.
I think I can work out the rest of the MEDIAN calculation from the MSDN example code.

I have been searching for days to get some code that will do this. I need to open a spreadsheet and read maybe 2 dozen cells into variables in a VB.Net program.

View 2 RepliesI generate my xml into "variable string str" by using "dataset.GetXml" and then I write the "xml which is contained in variable str" into "file.xml" by using sFile.WriteLine(str) while 'sFile' is a stream reader"My reason for using 'writeline' instead of 'dataset.WriteXml' because I need to encrypt the 'xml stored in 'str' before I store it into file.xml.I got everything fine for the encrypted result, and so does the decrypted result as well.Here's the decrypted result of my file.xml below (I have checked it the xml value which in str before encryption and which in decrypted file.xml. They are all match well)Here is my plain xml value before it got encrypted or decrypted which I stored it in variable str by using GetXml. I don't know for sure but my xml value doesn't contain declaration "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes" ?>" like common xml used to have.All the xml file which I got from GetXml is just like below (No declaration like <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" bla ?>) Book 1 2010-09-22T14:43:00.0000000+07:00
And since I think it may not cause any problem then I keep coding and decrypt it which is going well and the decrypted result is perfectly same ofcourse.My problem is, when I try to make my xml value show in Data GridView by using the code below, and run the debug, it prompt an error said "could not find the file c:laFile.xml ".
ds = New DataSet
path = System.IO.Path.GetFullPath(strFileToDecrypt)
