I am trying to open two different forms depending on if I click yes or no from a message box. The code runs but both yes and no open the same form. Is it possible to open two different forms? My code is posted below.
Both open Form3 when clicked. mbrown686886 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

I have no idea what I have done wrong here, so I'll just attach my project as a zip file and see if any of you are kind enough to look into it for me.I am reasonably experienced in C#.NET but having trouble using VB.NET for a school assignment.I cannot open half of my forms in designer view because "To prevent possible data loss before loading the designer, the following errors must be resolved".
View 1 Repliesi was doing a fair amount of programming many years ago, like 10 it feels like, so I'm sorely not up to date on how my newly downloaded Visual Basic Express expects me to communicate with it.I am writing a program that pulls a cell from a database after the user has gone through several forms to determine which cells they want. When I write it like that, it doesn't sound very efficient, but I've designed it this way for usability.Here's where I have a problem: Should I store the path the user takes in a string, an array, what?
Here's an example:Someone wants baseball stats and trivia. They run my program, main form pops up, they select National League button, the NL Form pops up. Now the way my program is set up right now, is there are two ListBoxes on the form, one is populated, and as the user selects a Team from ListBox1, it jumps to ListBox2. Once they've selected all the teams they want info for, they click a button Next.
What I now need the program to do is show the next form "Team: name" once for each team, and insert the name of the team on the form in the appropriate label which I'll have blank. This form will also do the Listbox thing except the first listbox will populated with Topics like HR Stats, Pitching Stats, Coach History, etc.
I have two forms frmMain and frmNew, and one module modMain. In modMain I hold public variables which are needed for application. My question is how to open and close those two forms when needed? I ask this because if i set frmMain as startup form, then when closed, application will end, and one of those two forms will always be displayed. Also if I set frmNew as startup form, then when I close this form, application will also end. Is there a way to do this from module or something so my application won't end after closing and opening any of those two forms?
View 2 Repliesif you guys have used office 2003 or better( i am sure all) then you would have seen that when the help window open it causes the active windows say of MS WORD to change accordingly so that this help windows fits with it along the right side and this functionality i want to implement in my VB windows application and have no idea how to do it Also i have seen this feature in GOOGLE DESKTOP GADGETS...
i want to implement that when my application opens which ever is the active window( of any application) snaps to the left and allows my application to fir in the right hand side i am developing my application in VS 2005 using Visual Basic.
I would like my forms to open as part of a "bigger" program, where there is a screen that fills the monitor and inside this screen is my form, centered. When a new form is opened, only the new form will be displayed...it will not be form on top of form.It would look similar to the screen in the following link, except the form inside the bigger screen would not have the minimize, maximize, or close buttons.I am just wondering if there is a property in VB.NET forms that will allow this to happen.

View 2 RepliesAt one point I have a dialog form open, but in order to process it, the user might want to access information on other (open) forms. This would necessitate the ability to move/resize/scroll the other forms, but obviously everything is frozen during the dialog. I don't suppose it's possible to achieve this "semi-modal" state, where other forms can be browsed, but no other actions taken?

I have an application that has multiple forms. The "main" form within this application can be accessed from other forms. However, each time this "main" form is accessed throughout the application, a "new" instance is created, resulting in multiple instances of this form being open.
I would like to have "only" one instance of this form open at one time. If it is currently opened, I would like it to be brought to the forefront, instead of opening a new instance.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to pass value from form1 to form2, while both form is open.
Using New (Dim frm as new form2) only works when the form2 is not loaded yet. what if both forms already open?
PS: I don't want to use module since there will be a lot variable to pass and i don't want to maintain such large collection of variable in module.
I've copied a project from one computer to another and while I can open the project and its one module, when I try to open any of the forms, I get this error:
Quote: There is no editor available for 'C:UsersDaBoyesDesktopWattsDBForm6.vb'.
Make sure the application for the file type (.vb) is installed. I can open the forms just fine on their own--I just can't open them from within the project.
In the middle of converting VB6 code to VB.NET, I need to replace the following code that intends to close all open forms remaining in the application.

I've replaced the Unload function with Close (as indicated by TFM), but the compiler complains that OpenForms is not a member of My.Application.Where can I access the open forms?

View 5 RepliesI have a question that I hope to find a much more simpler solution to.I have two forms in my program which are named Main and Second. The Second form has several textboxs, buttons (some disabled) and comboboxes. When the Second form is opened via the Main form on the very first instance, everything works fine.
However, if I re-open the Second form after previously closing it, the disabled buttons are no longer disabled and the text controls and comboboxes show the previous values entered from the first instance which I do not want. How can I ensure that the Second form will be opened "clean" every time.
Currently I have to add instances to the onload event to do this to ensure that the form is cleared on the second instance.textbox1.text = ""textbox2.text = ""textbox3.text = ""button1.enabled = False
I have a problem where i need to write a class that will open a browser and automated the controls on it. I am struggling getting started with this.
