Method Of Using A Tab Control To Act Like A Wizard?
Oct 27, 2009
I am new to VS and evaluating VS 2010. I am trying to create a wizard type control, on which various controls are on each tab. I then want to turn off the tab description and outline and control which tab controls are displayed by programmatically selecting each or one specific tab. Also require to be able to place a control above a tab (not on any of the tabs, which will mean that the control is visible whenever the form is displayed
I am trying to duplicate the characteristics of the Clarion (Soft Velocity) language tab control.
I have noticed that the tab control does have a "visible" attribute and if turned off that none of the tabs are visible. I guess what I need is a "visible" attribute (most probably inhereted from the parent tab control ) which can be programmatically changed.

how to upload to FTP, however when using the FileUpload control inside a Wizard control, when you move to the next step, the File you selected gets cleared because of the postback. I need to be able to rename the file according to the results from the Wizard before uploading. So...
I finish my wizard It uploads some stuff to a database Renames the file according to those results Uploads the renamed file to the FTP server
I suspect I will need to follow a procedure something like this, having an upload button next to FileUpload
On "Upload" button click stream the file to the Web Server. Complete the Wizard. If the wizard completes successfully, rename file and stream to FTP server. If the wizard fails, what? Delete the file from the web server? How?
I think I understand the process, how to split my FTP Upload function into two parts with the proper error handling for when the wizard fails.
Protected Sub UploadFile(ByVal NewFilename As String)
Dim myFtpWebRequest As FtpWebRequest
Dim myFtpWebResponse As FtpWebResponse

I have been asked to build a custom wizard control in VB.NET for a windows forms project. It has been made very clear to me that I am not "allowed" to utilize existing wizard controls on the internet due to some obscure logic surrounding copyrights. It has also been made clear to me that we are not "allowed" to use usercontrols in the software.

We are using a .net wizard control for a mobile website. Everything works great except on android devices when the user exits the browser to take a call or send a text message. When the user returns to out web page the android browser is refreshing the web page. Our problem is when the web page refresh the wizard is losing the view state So if they are in the middle of the wizard there previous work is lost. how to combat this. Is there a way to persist the wizard even if the user refreshes the webpage? I basically want to make my asp.net wizard control truly stateless.

I have an ASP.NET page with a Wizard control containing several pages of form fields. The data is collected and inserted to a database from the code behind page. I need to set this form up so you can not only insert, but edit a record as well. Since the form is long and complex, I would rather use the existing one and not make a duplicate one for editing, especially since I want to keep both forms exactly the same and any edits would have to be made to both. But it looks like this is what I need to do if I'm going to databind it. But this would also involve putting the Wizard inside of a FormView, and then I'd have to use FindControl to access any of the fields which would mean altering all my already-existing code (which of course would be time-consuming). So should I manually enter all the values from the code behind instead of databinding it? Which is better, to use a FormView and have duplicate forms (plus have to go in and redo the way I access the fields), or to do everything from the code behind?

1. On the main form a scanner class is instantiated that (in the scanner's constructor) sets the scanner settings (baud rate, parity, etc) and opens the scanner for use
2. A barcode is scanned (via a scanner connected to the device in a seral port) while on the main form
3. In the scanner class, the DataRecieved event gets the needed info from the scanned code.
4. Then that info is passed back to the main form to a method RunCommandCode (which takes the scanned info as an argument)
5. On the main form the RunCommandCode calls another method CommandCodeHandler, passing the scanned info again
6. In the CommandCodeHandler sub a method is called in a Utils class (SetSelectedTab), which interacts with the form itself (determines how many tabs exist on a tab control), which is the reason for the invoke in the first place
So, before I figured out I needed to use the Invoke method (and, more specifically, that the scanner was working in a different thread), I was getting an error in step 6 on the line that got the TabControl.TabPages.Count.

I use VB in VS2010..My form has a textbox..I can control the keyboard entry by using the SuppressKeyPress method..However this does not work for the Menu key - I think it's the menu key - the one that looks like a combo with an arrow.This produces a large drop-down menu which I don't want.On checking various forums it appears that the following code should work..[code]

When you click on a button control on a web form visual studio automatically put in this code for you in the code behind.
Protected Sub btnSave_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles btnFlightInfo.Click
end Sub
Say for example, I wanted to call this method from another method. How would I do that? I know that the sender is the actual button object, but what is e? Here is what I have so far inside another sub. Just trying to get a better understanding of how this method works.
btnSave_Click(btnSave, ??what would you put there??)

Ive tried searching for hours now and cannot find out why my code (aka, me.) is failing
Basically... I have a listview control which I'm passing a datatable of products (ID, Name, Description and Price columns), and im trying to make it so that when the "checkout" button is pressed, it parses through all the controls on the page, finds all the controls with the correct ID's and adds the items values to the cart.
ive checked all my ID's in the source code and they match up to the ones being requested by the FindControl method.[code]...

I am still in the conceptual(planning) stage so I do not have a code to show as an example.[code]...
Example: A user visits the form, the cursor by default(Tab Order) is in the first TextBox. If the user tries to leave the box without
entering any information an error is displayed. The user cannot leave the TextBox(MaskTextBox) unless they enter valid data.
If the user enters valid data the error message goes off and the user is able to leave to the next TextBox.
I also have a bunch of RadioButtons, CheckBoxes and NUD that I would like the user to play with without trigger the error messages on the TexBoxes. If the user click a check box or radio button, I need the error message to stay off, the error message should only trigger if a user click in a text box and a: Decides to leave without entering data or b: enters a wrong data.
I know other ways to do this, example using a submit button to do this. However is my idea possible? Can you have a field(controls) the validate on leave and click other fields(controls) without triggering it?[code]...

Is it possible to dynamically direct a particular control's event to use a predefined method.For example.I have a form which I dynamically add controls to, let's say, TextBox1,TextBox2 and TextBox3 and a module which as 3 routines, Method1, Method2, Method3. When I dynamically add my controls, eg TextBox4, I want to choose which of the 3 methods I want mapped to which event.

When ListView is not in Virtual mode the following method seems to be the fast method to load a large list into ListView:
Dim items As New List(Of ListViewItem)
Dim alllines as String()=System.IO.File.ReadAllLines("FilePath")
For each line as string in alllines
Dim item As New ListViewItem
item.Text = line
items.Add(item)
Next
ListView1.Items.AddRange(items.ToArray())

I would like to make a method excute right before the user get back controle of the program. No matter what chain of events happens i would like to beable to have a method is always the last thing to excute. I plan on using the method to check the form and the data on it. I have no issues righting the method, I just don't know if their is a event or some other way to make sure it is always the last thing to excute. (Sorta like a validation method) Is their an easy way to do this?

I found a custom ListBox that, strangely doesn't have an InsertAt method and I would like to add one. The custom ListBox uses an object instead of just a list of strings like a normal ListBox. I was curious what the logic behind inserting a new item at a particular index would be.The only thing I could come up with was add the new ListBoxItem at the end, then using the specified index, I could either keep moving ListBoxItem objects to the bottom, with the Add() method, from that index till the ListBoxItem at that index equals the one added, or I could use that index number in a "calculation" till I know I've moved the correct number of objects.

I've noticed that in VS 2005, there were plenty of new, great features, with good fixes and just a better overall system. However, it does not seem to have a very good setup wizard. You have less control over setup, and the wizard won't let me copy some files that my program needs with it.Is there a way to get a better setup wizard, or will I have to make my own? Also, how do you make a custom MSI?
