I have been developing my application for a while and need some advice on the closing. I want a code to be run when the close button is clicked but ONLY when it is clicked.
I have dried the form.disposed but that fires whenever the form is closed from the code. I just want it to do it when the close button is clicked.If you don't understand it I will give an example. I have a registation form that is the first thing a user who has not used the app before can see. When they click the close button I want the application to exit through Application.Exit(), however when they have registered the form is closed from the code through
formlogin.show()Me.close()However the Me.closE() triggers the form.disposed event and thus the application exits completely which I don't want. I know I can use the form.hide() but that keeps it running which makes the app more resource intensive.

View 1 RepliesI have a Function Named Logout. Code is below;
Private Sub Logout()
Try
SendRequest("http:url....)[code]....
Everytime I login, It seems to run the logout function also. It DOES NOT do the SendRequest, but it does the me.client.dispose() which logs you out of chat. Is there a way where i can make this function only work when a button is pressed or the form is closing. In the form closing and btnLogout code I have Logout(), but I only want it to run that function when you close the form or you press the logout button, not when you log in. Is there anyway?

I'm new to VB and Windows programming but I do have a fair amount of experience programming at the command line level. A friend is having problems with his laptop. He does a lot of speaking engagements with Powerpoint. His laptop uses the F7 key to toggle the output to his external monitor port to the video projector. The F7 key has stopped doing this. Is there a way to create a Windows program that will do this without using a DOS window? He is not familiar with command line processing and needs something that he can double-click.
View 2 RepliesI'm currently in the process of building a text editor type program, and have run into a brick wall. I haven't done VB in years, so I may just need a little reminder on some things. I have coded everything so far as far as opening files, saving them, changing fonts, colors, etc. However, I'm looking to add a Close button to my menu strip that will just close the currently opened file, and not the entire program, while also ask the user if he/she would like to save before closing the file, and then if they select yes, it will show the save dialog, and if not, it will go ahead and close the currently opened item.
View 2 RepliesIn my work, we have a program done by other company, and we don't have the code to change it. This program register a serie of numbers and then if the user whants, save them to an xml file. But if the user forget to save and close the program, it doens't ask if whant to save the data, it simply close and all data is lost. I whant to know if its possible to build a vb.net application that controls when the close button is press and freeze the program or something to remind the user to save the data.
View 3 RepliesI would like to know about timer_tick function.I have one form(form1) with 2 buttons : button1 and save respectively. There are picturebox and a timer as well Upon form1 show, I would like to use ALT + printscreen to perform button1 click. Having said that, when button1 click, it will perform Clipboard.ContainsImage() which is in timer_click. How to ensure that I can use ALT + Printscreen and able to capture the image?
Initially this function will be activated when user press printscreen button and it will show the image captured. However I have amended to add a button to perform the same action (ALT + Printscreen) ---> perform button click..and capture screen:

Using 2 forms how would I click one button, from another form? ie In VB 4,5,6, I would used to do it as:-
Form 1:
private sub Command1_Click()
msgbox "Say Hello"
End Sub[code].....
If I clicked the button in form2, it would automaticlly, click the button in form1. Do I, do it the same way in VB Express or has it changed?
I am beginner. When ever I close the form it reopens. I am closing it from the title bar (X). if we add a button and code it end or me.close(). it is working but when we try it from title bar (X) it reopens.
View 3 RepliesI have a password form that contains a load of buttons. The user has to enter a four digit, numeric, password to procede. They do this by pressing one of 10 number buttons on the screen, the keyboard isn't used. If they enter the wrong password an error message pops up (this isn't using the error tool I just added a message box msgbox("Error Code #638492") or something) if the user doesn't enter a password, after 5 seconds (I use a timer called Timer1 with an interval of 5 seconds) the form closes and it goes back to the previous page.
My only problem is when I close the form using Me.close(), the message box is still displayed. And if the message box is still displayed it doesn't work. The form is miminized (I have the application in full screen) so this is very bad. What I need is to simulate the enter key press then close the form so the enter key is pressed, the messagebox close then the password form closes.I can do this using SendKeys.Send("{ENTER}"). Here's the sub I use:
[code]...
However, if I don't have the 'Close()' line of code in the message box closes as it should. If I don't have the message box open and I don't use the SendKeys.Send("{ENTER}") then the close() line works perfectly and close the password form as it should?
I have set up a notify icon for my form. I want to make it so that when the user clicks the close button that it doesn't close the form it just takes it to shows the notify icon. They can exit the program from the notify icon. Can someone tell me how to keep it running?
