I am making a calculator-like program, and would like to make it so that it is always the front-most form, even when another program (like Firefox) is clicked. While Firefox is the active form, my form is still up. Basically, I'd like to make the form like the on-screen keyboard; it never really minimizes unless you specifically tell it to.

What code in VB.net 2010 do I need to set a window to come to the front of the screen. What I am trying to achieve is to display an urgent alert type, its a form, for certain reasons I am not using message box.
Following code does not work:
Private Sub frmMessage_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Me.BringToFront()
End Sub
I'm trying to bullied a simple cheap software to rise money.Any way, I managed to make a serial login form but the problem is I need it to appear only once pear purchase, meaning as soon as you enter it once, it will be saved and the login form wont popup when the program gets started again on the same PC. Here is my code so far:
ic Class Form11
Private Sub Form11_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
End Sub

Also, how can I generate more serial codes?
I am trying to make it so when a user logs in the code can tell, if they are a user or not, if they are a user, then if they are a teacher or not. I have SQL in there to identify if the person is a user or not, but it won't bring up an error message if they aren't. And if both the users logging in are not teachers they are still able to view a screen they are not meant to.

making a screen recorder. make it take a screenshot 15-30 times a second, and for each shot there will be a text file that will say the location of the cursor when the shot was taken and what the cursor was, like loading or whatever. Then when the user presses save, it will take all the shots, import the cursor in each one and then create an AVI using each of the frames that were initially shot. Another better way would be to take a screenshot with the cursor in it, if thats possible.

View 10 RepliesI wanted to make a screen recorder (not screen capture) program, but I am not entirely sure how to get it started. I have seen many videos and things on how to make one, but all of these just take multiple pictures and then don't compile them into a movie file, and I don't want to take many pictures (unless that is the only way possible.) I am using Visual Basic 2010 Express and I have looked at the Windows Media Encoder, but I can't seem to figure out how to use/implement it (yes, I have downloaded and installed it.) Maybe I can use some kind of ActiveX control?
View 3 RepliesI need to create a login page as part of an assignment. Problem is, I don't have access and I'm not sure which other programs can be used as alternatives. I am hoping that it's possible to create the login screen using only a If...Then...Else Statement. If it is possible, I'm probably going about it the wrong way, as it skips the first two conditions and goes straight to the 'Else'.

I want to make a program that detects the note that is being played in front of the microphone. I am testing the FFT function of Naudio, but with the tests that I did in audacity it seems that FFT does not detect the pitch correctly. I played an C5, but the highest pick was at E7.I changed the first dropdown box in the frequency analysis window to "enchanced autocorrelation" and after that the highest pick was at C5.

View 3 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?

I am making a program that is very simple, but I'm have problems with it. It runs like this:Theres a textbox and you enter in any amount you want.Next to that there are three radio buttons, deposit, check and service charge.If you enter in 100 in the transaction text box, and check the deposit radio button, and hit "Calculate" it will display 100 (in a total display box); hit calculate again, it will display 200, then 300, etc..Now lets say you keep 100 in the text box, but you check either "service charge" or "check" and hit calculate then it will MINUS the amount in your total display box. So for example if you had 300 in the total display box, and 100 in the transaction box and you checked "Service Charge" and hit calculate it would display 200 in the total display box, hit calculate again, and it shows 100.. etc..

View 3 RepliesI am making a program in vb.net (visual basic) that has two forms. I have one as a sort of "main" base which will be behind everything. Then I have another additional form which is suppose to go on top of the "main" form. Well I get this to work when I show both of the forms, but I want the smaller (additional) form to be centered onto the main form. If you want an easier sense of it, its a small box in a big box. (all centered and aligned). Does anyone know how to do this?
View 3 RepliesI have an exe with certain variables that need to be changed for each "make" of the program so that each one is customised, but what I need is to create a program that can edit these variables and generate a new exe, or something that can take the source files from my exe and edit the variables then recompile it. Now I don't want to hear "why not just do them by hand", if I wanted that I wouldn't be asking how to do this, I just need this because I need to create 1000's of these custom exes, and I figured that if I could make a program that can do this (edit the variables and compile new exe) then that would make it easy on me since the variables I need to change go in an order from 1 - 1000. I also need it to work on a regular pc not one with all the special VB plugins and stuff, it needs to be able to work on a fresh install of win xp.

I am trying to make a basic "paint" like form for one of my programs.I would like it to be like a function, where I put the input in, the user changes it, and when the user is done, it returns the changed picture.I know how to draw the picture and then draw lines, dots, whatever where the user clicks, but I don't know how to do some of the features like: text, color picker, zoom, erase, select (copy and pasting parts of the image) , and fill. I also don't really want to have a color picker dialog open ever time that the user wants to change color.
