I want to make a loop that only loops if the serial link is open and Button3 (which writes a stop signal to the program) is not pressed. I've gotten as far as this: Do While Serial.IsOpen = True & Button3. but do not know how to tell the while loop to stop when Button3 is pressed.
View 2 RepliesIn my program, if something goes wrong an ErrorForm is supposed to show up and tell what was going wrong.
And if the error is a "fatal type", then I want the program just display the ErrorForm (which gives some information about the error), wait for a button press, and then close the program (terminate run).
In case of error, the form is displayed.. That's good.
But as the program is supposed to terminate after showing the error form, the error form disappears immediately after showing up (so it doesn't allow the user any time to read what's going wrong).
How can I make the program wait until a button press (on the error form) and then terminate?

View 3 RepliesHow would I check if a key is currently being pressed?
Also how would I detect if a key is pressed without using the KeyDown event. The reason I am not using the keydown event is when the user holds down a key it calls the event, waits a second than keeps calling it. I do not want the wait period if a user is holding down a key.
All i wish to do is have some simple code, which can detect when the esc key is pressed, (if possible can you point out where i need to change to set it for an other key).

View 1 RepliesThis may sound like a dumb question but I need to know. I know you can tell which keys are pressed on the keyboard but I like to know if I can do something.Ok, heres what I am trying to do. A user is in another program that is max on the screen. He has to press Print Screen to take a screenshot, but he got to min the screen he is in to paste the screenshot into paint. This causes slow loads on maxing that screen and sometimes crashs of the program. I already got the code done to check when the program is running and to capture the screenshot and save it. What I to do now is, find out while in the other program with my program running in the background, if the user has pushed the Print Screen button.

I have a webform and i want to detect if F5 button was pressed or if the page was refreshed. I know about postback but it is not what i'm looking for. I have a gridview that loads in a modal popup when a button is clicked and a parameter's value is set for the gridview. When refresh is hit and if the modal popup button was previously clicked the modal popup is visible right after refresh. I want to detect if the page is refreshed to prevent this. any ideas? I thought to try Override but I'm not exactly sure how to use it. I tried Control.ModifierKeys but I don't have access to ModifierKeys.
