Is there a way in vb.net to subclass/hooking in to any controls scroll bar and change it is colours etc (I saw this once in C++ but lost it). It�s ok for MS giving us user owner drawn controls, or at the very least allowing us to draw the controls information but it looks dam write awful if the scroll bar does not fit into the GUI.

There is a class in this datalayer that subclasses System.Data.Datatable. So for example if I populated a System.Data.Dataset and then tried to put the first table of this dataset into this class like so:
Code:
Dim dt as new myDatable
dt = ds.Tables(0)

I want to create a subclass of a class that has some shared methods. These shared methods all call one specific method. But I can't redefine that specific method in the subclass. If I try to make it overridable in the parent class, it says that shared and overridable can't both be used.

I'm listening for the WM_SETCURSOR messages and setting the cursor there, it works most times, but not always. I've seen two other cases that I need to catch:
WM_PAINT: At least after a WM_LBUTTONDOWN the cursor is painted somehow without calling WM_SETCURSOR... WM_CAPTURECHANGED: Happening sometimes when the mouse is down and moving it.
Even doing all this the cursor sometimes flickers and the original one can be seen in some cases (eg: the instant when you roll over some object that sets the cursor to something else). I've been trying to look for some other patterns or messages but didn't see anything that would solve this problem.

View 1 RepliesI have been working on a project for some time now and I am stuck. I am trying to sense when a navigation software speaks so i can mute the volume of everything else on the computer.
my problem is that i cant properly sense the audio of the software. i am using windows 7 and vb.net. i have done a good amount of research, but i have not come up with an answer.
i am almost positive that i need to intercept the win32api call of the software to trigger the mute that i will use. i dont know how to do this, all the information i can find that is even close to this subject is for 98, nt and 2k.
does anyone know of any books (or websites) that contain information on this subject?
I have a tab control with two tab pages. One page has the auto scroll enabled since there is to much content in the page. The middle mouse wheel doesn't scroll the scroll bar; I have to actually click and hold the scroll bar and drag it down to scroll. Is there a property to allow this?

The problem is that this works perfectly if I use the left and right arrows and it also works perfectly if I use the scroll bar's slider SLOWLY. If I scroll using the slider and move it quickly then the scroll gets out of sync.The small change and large change are both set to 1 and maximum is set to 8
I have a DataGridView with a panel above it, that contains a group of textboxes above each column. My DataGridView has a horizontal scroll bar. What I want to do is when the DataGridView scrolls horizontally, scroll the panel with textboxes above it, so they stay aligned.I tried handling the DataGridView's scroll event, but I'm not sure what to do with it.

However, I dont want horizontal scroll, I want vertical. When I set TableLayoutPanel to AddRows, a vertical scrollbar will not appear.

How would I leave the vertical scroll position as it is and set the horizontal scroll position all the way left if it isn't already in that position? I've been using Me.AutoScrollPosition and have come up with code that is satisfactory but I haven't been able to always leave the vertical scroll position exactly as it is and just move the horizontal scroll position to the left limit.

View 1 RepliesI am not very familiar with VB.NET so I don't know if this is possible.Some code I am working on is setting the properties of a very large class. In the setter of each property an event is raised to indicate that the class data has changed. An event handler then serializes the instance of the class to a database.Obviously I do not want this to happen after each property is set, so I need to either have a delay before saving, or something else.I am keeping a large list of instances in a cache implementation already, so one option would be to only process the cache every now and then and save all unsaved instances in cache to the database.So I tried to see if I could derive a class from Application (and override DoEvents), but it is NotInheritable, so no luck there.

I currently have software that sends out plain text(i.e. 'X') to comm 1 port and was wondering if there was any way to capture that plain text and also respond to that port on the same compute as the port without having anything plugged into the machine (i.e. 9 pin serial cable). I am trying to avoid buy any more hardware as this is an objective to acutally cut down on hardware.
