QueryClose Form Event Equivalent
May 29, 2012
I'm migrating a VB6 application, which has a subroutine that fires upon a QueryClose form event. As far as I can tell, this event no longer exists in System.Windows.Forms. I tested with a breakpoint, and QueryClose does fire when you click the red 'X' in the upper right corner of the VB6 form, like the FormClosing event is supposed to do in VB.NET forms. My question is: Does FormClosing have the closest equivalent functionality to QueryClose, or should I use a different event? [code]This code was originally VBA / VB6, which I put through ArtinSoft's Visual Basic Upgrade Companion (VBUC). VBUC apparently didn't think that there is an equivalent event, or isn't smart enough to do that sort of conversion. FWIW, I'm using Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Express.

I just want to know if there any equivalent event (ADO. NET VS 2008) event as in MS ACCESS Form's OnCurrent Event.
The reason is I like to make some calculations based on some data bound controls with current datarow data when user clicked a row in DataGridView (or by using bindingNavigator). I've tried with DatagridView's RowEnter event. But some Data bound controls are not yet reflect the data of current datarow when that evet was fired.
In MSDN Help File: It says "RowEnter Event: Occurs when a row receives input focus but before it becomes the current row. "

I'm trying to extend the GridView class to always show the header and footer even when the datasource is empty by using the code I found online (link). However, the code is written in C# but I use VB.
What is the VB equivalent of the following?
public event MustAddARowHandler MustAddARow;
Is there a way around VB.NET not allowing events to return a type?
Also, I cannot convert the following function because of the error below.
Code:
Protected Function OnMustAddARow(ByVal data As IEnumerable) As IEnumerable
If MustAddARow = Nothing Then 'Error on MustAddARow'
Throw New NullReferenceException("The datasource has no rows. You " _

I'm working on a tutorial to build a media player in Silverlight and am trying to wire up an EventHandler to the timer.Tick event of a DispatchTimer object so that the time of the video is synced with a Slider object.
The sample code is in C# and I can't for the life of me figure out the proper syntax in VB.NET with RaiseEvent and/or Handles to wire up the event. Below is the relevant C# code. I'll include comments on where I'm getting stuck.

In WinForms I could handle the Validated event to do something after the user changed text in a TextBox. Unlike TextChanged, Validated didn't fire for every character change; it only fired when the user was done.Is there anything in WPF I can use to get the same result, an event raised only after the user is done changing the text?

I have got a dgv which on clicking a cell or row triggers the row_enter event, this in turn fills a list which is then placed as the datasource for the datarepeater. Heres the event which works within a dgv
Private Sub dgv1_RowEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles dgv1.RowEnter
Dim NameList As New List(Of TestList)
For Each item In Example.Item(e.RowIndex).Names
[code]....
Now this is all well and good but i need a way to do this using a datarepeater. I have tried about 5 events to get something like e.RowIndex and have been unable to find any event that would let me use this routine?

I'm trying to convert an asp.net website to a vb.net application. It's my first go with vb.net so please try and make any responses as simple as possible.On my website I have a page that uses nested repeaters. The data source is a dataset with relations.Im trying to replicate this in a form. I've created my dataset and relations, but I'm struggling to find the best way to display my data within the form. For each parent row there can be a varying amount of child rows. The parent row simply shows an index number via label. The child rows contain text that can vary from a single character to 1000 characters.I have tried to use a dataRepeater as the parent control and a datagridview as the child control.I'm struggling to find out how, and at what point, to bind the data to the datagridview.

I'm trying to execute different code depending on the button clicked (button 4 or 5) on Form1, but when I click on button5 to activitae the code on the Form2's Load event everything is Ok, but when I click the back button to return to Form 1 and click on the Button4 to activate the code on the Form2's Load event again, it doesn't active the Form's Load event, is there a way to form the form load event every time I access it from Form1?

As you noticed, in the code bellow, the event argument for the form click event has the type "TimedEventArgument".When the event is raised, e.Time holds the time where the form was clicked.Add the missing code in the class Form1 to make this work.You will not change anything to the methods "Form1_Click" or "Form1.Load".You will not use Option Strict On. HOWEVER, you will not do any narrowing or late binding that wouldn't have been allowed if Option Strict was on.You cannot create any new Class, Structure or Module.You cannot cast the EventArgs to TimedEventArg in any way

How should I go about getting my mouse position over multiple controls, and such. I can't use the form_mouse move event, or any other control event nor can I use them all at the same time cause that would conflict with the actual position I need for an object.

I'm having an interesting issue that I can't reproduce on a different project, but can consistently on this one. I have no clue what might be causing it, but am hoping that someone may have seen it before.
I have a main form, from which I run a series of checks. On this form, I have a listview control. Because of some issues with the refreshing of this listview control, I had to create my own messagebox. It's just a form that displays some text ( it also happens to look nicer than MsgBox; in my opinion, anyways ). It's been working great for months, until recently.
My problem is that on my main form's load event, I run this check, which returns an error within a try/catch block. I then call my custom messagebox with a message. It in turns calls it's ShowDialog() function.
In any other situation ( after the main form has been loaded ), I have no problems. The messagebox goes on the screen and behaves appropriately ( ie: waits for my input and acts as a modal dialog ( stops execution of my main form's thread ) ). However, on this onload event, my messagebox comes up and goes away almost immediately afterwards.
I've traced it all the way to the showdialog() call. For no explicable reason, it appears to skip right over this call, without me doing anything on the form.
Here's what the inner trace looks like ( when I put a breakpoint on the onclosing event for this messagebox form ):

I have two forms. Form A and Form B. Form A has a datagrid that is populated from a SQL Database Table query. When a button is pressed Form B is launched that allows you to add a record to the database table. I need for the datagrid to be refreshed and show the newly added record when I close form B and go back to the parent.

I fear that there is something obviously wrong with my code, but I have come across a situation where the Form.Load event is not firing when I create and show my form. The form is not subclassed (as I've seen some problems with that in some searches), and I am not getting any errors thrown when I step through the code in the debugger.
I have a break point set on the IDE-created form load function (which does have the Handles MyBase.Load signature suffix) but the breakpoint is never reached and the form does display and work.The form is passed three arguments in the constructor but the IntializeComponent() function is called before anything else is done.

I have a form that I inherit from.This form has some event actions like "load".Is there away to get the inherit child form to run that event on itself instead of the parent form.For example if I have frmTemplate.Load and frmChild.Load. The actions inside of frmTemplate.Load should be ran on frmChild changing any references to frmTemplate to frmChild.

I have two forms , first one is search and second is showing the data searched by first form search criteria. When the search query runs it takes lot of sql server resources, so I have passed that query to second form, it searches in database and shows the results. But if the results are not found I wish to close the second form in Form load event. As Second forms form load event searches for the record. I tried to use SecondForm.close in SecondForm.load event but failed to do so.

I've read thru Iceplug's tutorial on control arrays and got it working. I tried to add a new event by basically copying his click event code and calling it a doubleclick event. I used the proper addhandler and assigned the correct name to my sub. I have the click event changing the background color to blue and the doubleclick event changing the background color to green. The background color does not change to green. Why?

I'm trying to validate a few things in a form I'm building. It has a datagrid with clients info (taken from an access database) and a few textboxes where the user can type some search criteria. The thing is that those same textboxes are used to add new clients to the database and to modify a client's information if one from the datagrid is selected, so I made it that the buttons to insert and modify clients are disabled on load and thenevery time the text on a textbox changes ("TextChanged" event) they become enabled. So far so good. But then I wanted to make it so when a client from the datagrid is selected both buttons become disabled again until the text on a textbox changes (to make sure they're adding a different client and not the same one that was
selected).
I tried using the CellClick event from the datagrid to disable the buttons, but since every time a client is selected from the datagrid the info is shown on the textboxes, this triggers the TextChanged event too, and the buttons become available.So, is there a way I can tell the TextChanged event not to be triggered when the CellClick event occurs?
