I have 2 forms. Form1 and Form2 When the user calls for a new record to be created, Form2 shows modally centered in form1. I have disabled the control box and need to stop the form from being moved by the mouse. I do not see (Movable) in the properties list.

View 2 RepliesI have Form1 based on Table1 with unique records per employee/position. Form1 is used to updated position dates/active status/add new position info for an employee. I have Form2 based on Table2 which has unique record per employee. On Form1, I have a combo box to select which employee's records to view in the detail section. If I select a record from the combo box, the detail displays any existing records from Table1 for that employee. If I need to add a new employee, a command button opens Form2 where new employee is added to Table2, and a new record is also inserted into Table1 with the employee name and ID. When I close Form2 and return focus to Form1, my combo box is refreshed to display the employee just added, however I can't get the detail to show the new, partial record from Table1 for the new employee. Form2 is a stand-alone (not a subform on Form1).I've tried hooking Requery to OnGotFocus, but that either doesn't work or isn't activated by returning focus via code. I've tried adding a text box to the detail that contains the unique EmployeeNum and setting the control source of the text box to cboEE.Column(1) (which is the EmployeeNum bound column). Am back to trying to do stuff in code after long absence and
now feel lost in all the variations I've tried.
Last one day I could not manage to pass data from one form2 other form.
When I am opening Form2 from Form1, I can pass data from Form1 to Form2.
When I am closing Form2, I want to pass data from Form2 to Form1 which is still open when I close form2.
I try to use shared textbox, but I understand that this is nt supported.
I have 2 forms. On form1 i have listview on form2 i have menu. I'd like to call form2 menu from Form1 ListView1_MouseUp. I tryed to use this code
[Code]...
In my scenario when i press the "Get Book Details " of the Form1 , it will redirect to the Form2 , in the form load of Form2 a datagridview is filled with values along with the checkbox column and the desired rows of all the columns are selected and when OK button(form2) is pressed the selected rows should get populated to the datagridview of the form1.But i m not getting the selected rows to the form1t.

Is there a way to prevent the VB .NET editor from saving the project whenever IT LIKES TO ? It very annoying ; it so stupid that it saves things that I don't want to and that I didn't ask it to do .If I add a form and then close the editor , when I open the project again , that form is still there though I DIDN'T save it !If I change a declaration from Friend to Public and close the editor without saving , then when I open again the project , my modified code remains modified , though I DID NOT save it !Today I realized that if I delete some controls of a form and then close the Editor , then when I reopen it , the controls are missing for good ! It saved that modification by itself !
View 3 RepliesI've completed an assignment that requires me to search through two listboxes for a particular number.If the number is found, the text on a label changes to a dollar amount, otherwise a message box is displayed letting the user know that the requested number cannot be found.It works well enough, searches through the listboxes, finds the number, and displays the message box when it can't be found.However, the message box shows repeatedly up to five times.After the user clicks "OK" on the fifth appearance, the program crashed and displays the follow message."Invalid Argument = Value of '5' is not valid for 'index'.Parameter name: index."I don't know what's causing this, or how to fix it.I do use the index as a counter at a portion of the program...but I'm not sure where I went wrong with it.[code]Also there are five items in the second listbox...probably has something to do with it.

View 3 RepliesThe original post provoked more responses than I anticipated. Therefore I have tried to draw them together with this post.There appear to be several schools of thought on this issue.One holds that I should not release time-bombed software because it is illegal.
Suppose I include code that often randomly checks if the user is registered and then puts up a message and shuts down the program if a check fails - rather like an improved nag screen. Would this be regarded as illegal?One holds that I should not worry about it because the pirates wouldn't buy my software anyway.
Maybe, but there's no fun in that.One holds that it is a waste of time because it is impossible to protect 100%.Maybe, but once again no fun.My view was that an honest user buying from my site would get a genuine copy. If a dishonest user got a harmful copy and lost the lot then I couldn't care less.Reed Kimble pointed out the existence of "fake sellers" who could cause harm by selling honest users a dishonest copy.This is a problem that I had not thought of and it poses a dilemma.
If I do include protection, then how do I distinguish between and honest user and a dishonest one? They will both be caught by the protection.should I not include any protection at all so that the honest user doesn't lose out, and just accept that the dishonest one gets away with it?Or nail the pirate and accept the honest loser as collateral damage?

What's the best way to prevent javascript injections in a VB.NET Web Application? Is there some way of disabling javascript on the pageload event?Recently, part of the security plan for our vb.net product was to simply disable buttons on the page that weren't available to the specific user. However, I informed the guy who thought of the idea that typing
javascript:alert(document.getElementById("Button1").disabled="")
in the address bar would re-enable the button.
Update:Aside from validating user input, how can I protect the website from being toyed with from the address bar?

View 1 RepliesI often face the following problem : when I have a form with lots of controls on it (100 , 200 etc) and I change the name of a control , the IDE goes slow for a few seconds . This is very annoying when I have to change the name to a lot of controls . I believe this is happening because the IDE checks the forms , the code etc to see if there any problem after (re)naming the controls . Of course this is welcome because it prevents a lot of problems , but at the same time it creates some serious problems as well . Thus , I wonder , is there any way I could prevent the IDE from checking all those things in order not to reduce it's speed ? Of course I am talking temporarily . I believe that what I gain by letting it check after every name-changing , I also gain it if I only let it check once (at the end of the name-changing process) .
