I have a form called form1 which has a thread that runs a sub from a module.[code]...
Well from the module, there's a part where I have to update controls on the form1. Whenever I try doing it, it updates the value, but not the design. For example I write a delegate which makes label1.text = "111", while debugging, label1.text becomes 111, but it does not show it updated on the form design, it just stays at its default value.
How do I do something like this.[code]...
This is inside the Module separate from Form1 class as you can see right off the bat it's not a class and there is no reference to Form1.. how do I access Form1 without passing reference to make factory modules work like this.
I'm writing a program in vb.net 2003 and have come up with a problem.
I have a sub SettingsSave() in a module.
Public Sub SettingsSave()
Dim frmSaveSettings As New frmSettings
MsgBox frmSaveSettings.txtName.Value 'for testing purposes
SaveSetting("MyApp", "configs", "Name",frmSaveSettings.txtName.Value)
SaveSetting("MyApp", "configs", "Pass",frmSaveSettings.txtPass.Value)
End Sub
I have a form frmSettings, which has a button btnSave. When the button is clicked, SettingsSave() is called.The problem is, if btnSave is clicked, then either of the two textbox values are changed, then btnSave is clicked again, the SettingsSave() sub still returns the 'old' values (from the first time the save button was clicked).How do I clear the old values from memory? I've tried adding frmSaveSettings = Nothing, and frmSaveSettings.Close at the end of the sub SettingsSave().
I have a Sub Routine in a module to iterate controls on a form. I get an error about an instance of the object not created.I have declared the object and set it to the form (ModelsBox = Me). I have done this between two forms previously. Is there something fundamental that I am missing. Is this where the "Friend Shared" comes into play?

I was a vb6 user, done a few projects only with forums Now i am moving to vb.net(vb2010) and i have some trouble.Lets say we have a form(form1), a module(mod1) and a textbox on the form1.
i want to start a Sub (DoWork) in the module but in a new thread.
Dim Thread1 As System.Threading.Thread
Thread1 = New Threading.Thread(AddressOf mod1.DoWork)
Thread1.Start()
The DoWork sub does some stuff and when it's finished i want to change the text of a textbox1 in the main form and start another sub (DoWork2) on the main form under the main thread not the one DoWork is running under.
Plese do not refer me to another post that mighe give me a part answer, try to explain to me what i have to do and why.

View 4 RepliesI am trying to access the controls' properties on another form without having to modify the code of the other projec (the one containing the controls that I want to access) because it is already compiled as a DLL. In this DLL that I am trying to access, the functions/sub-procedures are all declared as private. Would there be any way of accessing the controls' properties without having to modify the DLL? Basically what I am trying to do is create a sort of console application wrapper for the DLL that would create a new instance of the DLL's form and then make certain checkboxes checked and click certain buttons. Basically, I am trying to automate the form as it currently exists.

I've been building controls for many years professionally and personally, but even back in VB6 days I just could not work this out.

And all the pages call GetDataSet(sql). Am I correct is assuming that this is a bad idea? Worst case is that concurrent callers could get each others data?
I created a module procedure in a access database, but I am having trouble trying to execute it in VB. I thought perhaps I should create a similar module in VB, but that didn't workThen I tried a few obj codes, but hitting a brick wall left and right.

View 2 RepliesI have a dynamically created CheckBoxList in a DotNetNuke module I'm building. When DNN creates the page, it prepends the control name with the moduleID and moduleName.
So, when I have "AddLicenseCheckBoxList" on the page, it becomes:
"dnn_ctr949_addRateGroup_AddLicenseCheckBoxList" depending on what the ModuleID and page name is (in this instance it's 949 and addRateGroup respectively). Now, I don't know what the name of the page or moduleID will be when this module is finished, so I need to make sure I am accessing the control my whateer name DNN gives it, and getElementById or getElementByName do not work even when using '<%= %>'.
So what I need to do is use Javascript or some VB to retrieve the checked values of the dynamically created CheckBoxList so that I can run an update on the database with those selected values. [code]...
I am trying to access a browser control in one of my forms from a module but keep getting an error. I attached a screen capture showing the code and the error balloon.

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to figure out the best way to reference a control on a form from within a module. Unfortunately the form is just an instance, so it's not as easy as calling form.control...
Dim ChildForm As New frmSearch
' Make it a child of this MDI form before showing it. '
ChildForm.MdiParent = Me
ChildForm.Show()
That form has an option for printing, which calls another form where certain options are chosen. The print form in turn calls a function in a module, which tries to reference back to the origional form.
childform as new frmSearch -> frmPrintForm -> sub okToPrint (in module Print)
okToPrint tries to reference a listview on frmSearch, but can't find it.
For Each itmX In frmSearch.lstResults.Items
So the solutions I can think of off the top of my head are:
1. Somehow divine which form is the caller of frmPrintForm
2. Pass ChildForm to the frmPrintForm as a variable to be passed on to module Print..
3. Use frmSearch directly instead of using an instance of it.
Number 1 would be my preference, as I don't want to have to pass forms around like that.

View 2 RepliesI have a slight problem With an enumaration of child controls on a form. The following code will not get but about have the controls that are on the form. The controls show that the count is correct but when it goes through the loop it skips over some of the controls. If you run it through the enumeration two or three times it will get all the controls a few at a time. The solution uses two forms, one that has the controls and the other that labels are made and displayed on. The Tx is just a index to add a number to the label.name and rename the label. So each label is identified seperately. This works for all the the controls that are seen in the for each loop.
