I have been using these forums regularly for getting on 3 years now, and I must say you are all extremely clever! I am adding in a few rectangle at runtime, but I can't seem to display where I want. I want them in a panel I have on the form, I have tried 'me.panel1.controls.add' but because a rectangle isn't a control it naturally doesn't work.

View 3 RepliesI created my program in VB 2005 on my XP machine at home and installed PP3 to take advantage of the printform component. It worsk great for my purposes and was easy to install and code.However when I brought my un-compiled code to my office which runs Win 2000 I got an error, saying I didnt have the correct version. I assumed it would be back ward compatible, never assume especially in programming.
So my question is can I just delete all references to printform component on my program and install power pack2 , which does support Win 2000 and XP then re-install print component.Or is there another way to make this work? I am not finding alot of information on the web other then Power pack 3 doesnt support Win 2000?

It works perfectly fine. Does anyone know what the problem is?
Given a rectangle of width w and height h. and a coordinate x,y in that rectangle I would like to identify which triangle I am within.
i.e. the function should take parameters(x,y) and return a,b,c,d or a zero based number representing that triangle index i.e. (0=A,1=B,2=C,3=D) if they are in that order.
I think this would be something like >= the formula of the red line and >= the formula of the green line?

View 1 RepliesI'm compiling and testing the VB programs in a download from MS of the Windows API Code Pack at url...(which is in VS 2008 and needs to be converted to run on VS 2010). So far I've resolved most of the issues, but a couple are baffling.The code as downloaded for the Taskbar demo refers to icons in the project resources as My.Resources.Green and My.Resources.Yellow and Red. Fatal errors, even though all the help pages say this is the correct way to access them. I got the build to run by removing the "My."; has there been a syntax change between VS 2008 and 2010? When I run the app, I get a message from TaskbarDemo.vshost.exe which says "This demo application needs to register .txt files as associated files to properly execute the Task related features. Filetype is not registered." Does that mean that in trying to debug the app, I have to modify the registry to associate the test program with the .txt filetype?
