I want to move a label across the form every X milliseconds. How do I do that? I understand how to use a timer, but don't know how to move the control. Here is my
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
Label1.Location.X = Label1.Location.X + 10
End Sub

Using Visual Studio 2010 / VB.net Windows forms application I have a weird situation occuring. I have a rather simple windows form program I have written where a second form is opened by pressing a button on the "main" form. It is opened simply by the following on the click event:

I've been trying to get a Timer to execute code every 50ms and it's worked okay, but for some reason after doing the code 8 times (i.e. for 400ms) it just stops. As in, won't execute the code any more times. Specifically, it's wired up to an animation (Picture) and a rectangle which moves around the screen (Box). why the timer would suddenly stop executing after doing so for a while? It's the same duration every time.

A form has many buttons. One of those buttons contains code to update the TableAdapterManager. One of the many TextBox controls has code in a Validating event handler. There is code to make sure a US phone number is formatted properly.If the user tabs out of the TextBox the Validating code works perfectly and show a message to the user if the phone number is not properly formatted and the focus is place in the offending TextBox.If the user clicks on a button that has code to update the TableAdapterManager the Validating code fires but instead of focus remaining on the offending TextBox, the code in the button Click handler also fires.
I would like to stop the button code from firing.Here is the code for the Validating event of the TextBox:
Private Sub TextBoxPrimaryPhone_Validating(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles TextBoxPrimaryPhone.Validating
' Make sure the phone is formatted correctly.
[code]....
What additional coding to I need to include so focus remains on the TextBox?
I already created a button "enjoy button" that i want to move in a form when the "timer start button" is clicked.how do link the timer to the"timer start button" and make it move? this is what i tried so far..then am blank first

My timer pauses (sort of the display portion (label) of the timer indeed pauses, however when the timer is resumed it starts again, but not at the point where it was disabled. As an example. If I pause the timer at 10:00 and wait ten seconds when I hit resume it starts at 09:50, where it should resume at 10:00 or 09:59

being able to move a button using a timer so that if mod 5 of the timer = 0 then it chooses a random number between 1 and 5 so that depending on the number it chooses it will move up,down,left or right by an increment given. Problem I'm having is getting the correct code to allow the button to move smoothly on the screen randomly based on the random number. I am also using visual basic 2010 express if that changes anything.

how to move the location of the label.
The piece of code below works fine. The label is moved from left to right, however, it doesn't start again from left when it reaches the end of the window, instead it goes from right to left. Please could anyone tell me how I can modify it so that it starts again from the left whenever it reaches the right end of the window.

View 2 RepliesI am having a mental block on how to work out a 15 minute timer that is shown on a label and counts down so that the user can watch it. I can do it just fine in seconds but I need to put it into the format of 15:00 and then have it count down the seconds and the the minutes when ever it drops 60 seconds. I found a few articles on using the dateNow syntax but that seems like it would only be good for adding time not subtracting it. Also I know I can set up a button to start and stop the timer but is it possible to use the space bar as the start/stop button?

View 20 Repliesi have a MDI application with parent and childforms.
i have a global timer in a module that makes a com search and writes the result to a parentform status strip label.
the problem is that the label do not change.
i have tried the following:
1) on timer.elapsed
parentForm.statusstriplabel.text =...
2) to create a delegate and invoke a parent form function
3) to create and raise an event
although all 3 seened to run the label didn't changed.
the timer was created in a different module than the parentform class for many reasons.
one of them is because i want to access the timer.start , timer.stop from all the childforms
when i tried a local timer to paretform worked perfect but i couidnt start and stop it from the childs

I have a timer that basically counts a number up in sequence in a label. On the On Text Change sub for the label I have functions run when the label is at a specific number. Everything works fine, the only problem I have is I have information pulled from an ODBC link to a pervasive database every second, which slows down the program. I have several flash components that run so slowly because of the data update. Now I have tried both using a dataset and coding the query but it is still ver slow and processor intensive, I think its because the Pervasive ODBC link is somewhat slow. Is there a way to have my data pull timer run in the background so that it doesnt effect the performance of the rest of the program?
