View 2 RepliesFocus On A Text Box On Form Load?
Mar 4, 2009On my Form_Load event, I simply have a code which is simply Text1.Focus and Text1.SelectAll. Neither of these actually works. I've also tried this on the Visible_Changed event and checked if the form is visible.
I can create a button with this code in and it works fine. Is this something to do with the text box not actually being visible at the time when the code is executed? It's driving me mad!

.net - Form.Load Event Not Firing, Form Showing?
Nov 9, 2010I 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.

View 1 RepliesLost Focus Event, What Control Is Getting Focus?
Mar 21, 2012I have a textbox on a form that when it loses focus it updates other text boxes on the form. But before it updates the other textboxes I check the input value in the textbox lostfocus event if it is undesired I return focus to the the textbox and alert the the user with a msgbox. However where my problem is, is that when the cancel button is clicked I don't care what the input in the textbox is because the changes are being canceled but if the value is undesired the it keeps returning focus to the textbox instead of canceling the changes. Is there a way to see what control was clicked on before or in the lost focus event? Can't seem to figure it out tried enter and leave events but no luck!
So for example something like this...
Code:
Private Sub TextBox1_LostFocus(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.LostFocus
If Control that was clicked <> btnCancel then

What Happens Before Form Load Event
Dec 21, 2011I have a form and initialize some global variables on its Load Event. There is a TextChanged event in one control (a textbox) that uses that value. The TextChanged event of the control is triggered before the Form's Load event even if I do not change anything on the TextBox, it looks like that happens when the control is loaded. Why is it doing it before the form? and what event can I trap in order to assure it's the first thing that happens?
Its as simple as this:
vb.net
Private Sub PackOutMain_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
ActiveFlag = False
[Code]....
My guess is that the msgbox should not appear until the flag is set to true somewhere in the code and then change the contents of txtUser, but it is shown before the form.

Apr 25, 2011I was having a problem with the debugger not stopping at breakpoints. After a lot of work that yielded no results, I realized that the problem was occuring in the form's load event and subs called from that event.
The problem is that it appears that the load event is not being called. Other startup forms in other projects in the solution seem to be working ok.

How do I get this check to run before the form shows?

Oct 25, 2010I want to develop a program using VS 2010 Pro, VB and .NET 4.0 to run on a Windows standalone computer.The program will be loaded by another program that checks for a text file in a directory.When that file exists, the program I want to develop will be started and it will process the text file.The new program will not have any buttons or dialog boxes, it will simply display the progress of the processing of the text file and then it will simply terminate and exit.
I know I can start the processing by putting code in the LOAD event for the form, but i want to make a new class for all the processing to start from and have the new class perform all of the steps necessary to complete the processing of the text file.Of course this new class will use other classes to do all of the different processing steps.How do I execute that new class from the Form LOAD event?
