I am trying to acccess a Collection in another form
vb
MsgBox(frmNetworkTest.servers.Count)
What I do this from the same form, I get 16, but when I run this code from a different form, I get 0.The variable is declared public.
vb
Public servers As New System.Collections.ArrayList()
I created buttons collection
with that code
Public Function AddNewButton() As System.Windows.Forms.Button
' Create a new instance of the Button class.

I have a Function for checking the input in a textbox and only allowing Numeric & Backspace; everything works fine so far. My form is for financials and it has about 20 textboxes; they all receive Numeric only data; there is NO alpha data on the entire form required. Note in the snippet below that I don't even need a decimal point as well.
Is there a way to handle ALL textboxes on this form without having to place the Function call in each textbox KeyPress event. took a long (5 year) hiatus from developing VB6

If (KCode >= 48 And KCode <= 57) Or KCode = 8 Then

Does anyone know how I can access the FontDialog's controls collection? I would like to disable the Font Style ListBox, set the Font Style's TextBox to readonly and disable the UnderLine and StrikeOut CheckBoxes.
View 3 RepliesI have some code like this:
Dim col As Collection = New Collection
col.Add(value1, "key1")
col.Add(value2, "key2")
' later...
For Each item As String In col
' want to get valueX and keyX here; currently, "item" holds the value
Next
How can I get both the value and key within the loop? Maybe there is another class that makes this easier?

View 2 RepliesI am considering a piece of code that will manage access to a collection object from multiple threads - add, update, remove, clear. OK ... so I have put a sync lock within each method, but what is not clear from the MS documentation is exactly how the sync lock is behaving. Is it locking the piece of code it wraps? Or is it locking the object? And if it is locking the object a private static object should lock out any code locked on the object within all instances of the object? i.e. if an add operation is underway, an update, delete or clear will wait for the lock to be released.
Finally, if I have multiple threads contending for the sync lock, how is the release managed? First come, first serve? random (from my p.o.v)? Is there a chance that two separate threads could blunder into 'locked' code simulataneously?
I'm creating a windows forms program and have recently noticed a large amount of memory slowly being eaten by the application. I went through my program and tried to tie up as many loose ends as I could in relation to object creation but noticed that the program would still keep memory for every form loaded until it eventually crashed.
I decided to make a simple test program which sole purpose is to pop-up a new form with a few controls, wait for 200 milliseconds, then close the form and repeat the process 30 times every time I hit a button. I found it caused the same behavior, even with the only new object creation being that of the form. So, I decided to manually invoke the garbage collector in a subroutine which handles the formclosed event. During tests I would get some memory back occasionally, but not enough to make a difference in the long run. So I start setting the form variable to nothing before I called GC.collect(). The program will initially eat a few 1000K of memory before leveling off and using only 20-40K for every 30 forms created.
Now what I'm wondering is, what is the point of an automated garbage collection system if it requires constant manual evocation and explicit dereferencing of all new objects to be effective? Have I completely lost grasp on the scope of VB.Net forms and it simply never marks forms as available memory to be cleared?I would have thought object memory references created within a form would be marked as usable when the form's close or dispose routine is called and no references to objects created within the form exist anywhere outside the closed form.
I am wanting to make a collection of form instances.I was wondering if the arrayList is a list of pointers (or references) to items added or if a new instance of an object is placed when using the add method.
i.e. if I had: Public Shared forms as Arraylist = new Arraylist Then if I called forms.add me from an instance of a form would it create a pointer or reference to the instance or generate a whole new one?
I have 5 text boxes that I need to perform several operations on as a group, named tb1, tb2, tb3, tb4, tb5.for example, if I want to retrieve the text from each one and process it, I believe I can use the text box or control collection and test each textbox to see if it's name starts with tb, check to see if it has text in it, and then process the text.I think I would use something like for each textbox in..... to test the collection but not yet comfortable with collections and this seems like a good place to start learning how to use them.

Is it good practice to store sub-collections of item X inside a parent collection of item X for caching 'filter-queries' which are performed on the parent collection? (They won't be used together (as in color AND type).) Or is it also ok to just Loop over the collection and return the correct entities in a temporary collection?

Dim FoundPolicyholders = From p As Policyholder In db.PolicyholderSet.Include("Keywords").Include("Services") _

I've been working with a CMS called InsiteCreations 2008. I'm running into an error I just can't wrap my head around. I would even be willing to compensate anyone a small amount over paypal, for a solution. The error is rare in occurance, and appears when clicking about 3-4% of links to other pages within our CMS.The full code page is quite large, but there seems to be only one function associated with the error. The error also only appears when not logged into the CMS. If logged into the CMS, clicking the link simply displays the page as normal. I have already checked permissions on the page from the CMS admin console, and it is public.
The error message is as follows:
Server Error in '/' Application.Collection index must be in the range 1 to the size of the collection.
Description:
An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

I have been working on a VB app to edit an excel document. I want to keep my excel workbook in scope for the whole app.
For example here is how my program looks now
private sub
open workbook
end sub
private sub
reference workbook
end sub
I want a way to just call my workbook at the top and have all of my subs recognize it. I guess like a global variable or something.
