Set Image After Calling New Form()?
Jun 14, 2010
Is there anyway I could set an image on a "NEW" child form when calling the following
(MainFrm) = Form1
(ConfigFrm) = form2
Code:
Dim Frm as New ConfigFrm()
ConfigFrm.Img_Artwork.image = Image.fromfile(Img_Location)
Frm.MdiParent = MainFrm
Frm.show
When I call the following, and the "New" child form gets called, The picturebox is left blank. I know it's because I'm calling "NEW" but is there anyway to still add the image to the picturebox even though i call "NEW"

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 ):

Requested were made by Businese Analyst to set the few Main FORMs VISIBLE PROPERTY TO FALSE when the POPUP FORM is loaded.
[Code].....
When the MAIN FORM loads the POPUP FORM, on the FRMPOPUPCUSTOMER-FORMLOAD even, it has to set the MAIN FORM Visible to False.
When FRMPOPUPCUSTOMER FORM IS UNLOAD it has to set the MAIN FORM Visible = TRUE.
How to the coding is to ensure that different MAIN FORM when loaded FRMPOPUPCUSTOMER it will turn the MAIN FORM Visible to FALSE.

I am just wondering the difference between using "As New" and not using it. It looks like the outcome is same to me. Is there any difference between #1 and #2 when I call "frmCR" from other winform?
A form "frmCR" is alreadu created thru design mode.
#1
Dim frmCR As New frmCR
frmCR.Show()
#2
frmCR.Show()

Is it advisable to call a function from another form?Does it have any side effects on the system while running, like more process will consume?I have a function that will set the background in a form, it will make the image stretch, backcolor transparent and will set the picture. If I will use that function in other 15 FORMS I can minimize my code.

Version: visual basics 2008
Problem:
Form 1 contains a SWF object, which is called FlashGame (it has a movie set, which is a game)
Form 2 contains a button to set a variable on the FLashGame.
Example
Call FlashGame.SetVariable("variable will be here", 1)
That simple coding works when the button to call that SetVariable command is on the same form as the FlashGame, but I need them to be on different forms.

Is there any specific way of calling the form of another application.My main project is a WPF application.From that it is calling another application is Vb.NET.. This is done by creating a process and then calling the exe.
Dim fp1 As New Process()
fp1.StartInfo = New ProcessStartInfo("Location of the exe")
fp1.Start()
Now the problem which I am facing is that from that exe I need to call a specific form in the WPF application.

i am currently trying to re-write an old VB6 program into .net basically the program contains 100's of forms for different jobs each with a Public Sub runjob(). the form names are then stored on a database. the user then selects the job from the listbox and it calls the correct job.the code i use to use in vb6 was
sValue = database.rsselectjobrun.Fields("callname")
Set frmName = Forms.Add(sValue)
frmName.runjob
Set frmName = Nothing i have looked into it and found this code which calls the form in .net
Dim objForm As Form
Dim sValue As String
Dim FullTypeName As String
[code]....
but i cannot get this to run anything other then the formload code. i know i can put all of this into a select case module but id rather not with the amount of forms i would have.

There are 2 forms open for the user in a school attendance program. The 1st. form is called FormBrowseClasses and the other form is called FormBrowseGrades. On the 2nd form is a procedure called PopulateTheDataGridWithData. That procedure loads data into a DataGrid.We would like to call PopulateTheDataGridWithData from within FormBrowseGrades so the data in the DataGrid will be refreshed.
We already tried:
' Refresh DataGrid data on FormBrowseClasses
'-------------------------------------------
objFormBrowseClasses.PopulateTheDataGridWithData()
but this only runs on a new instance of the form, not the currently open form. how to set this up correctly?

I can't remember exactly if this is possible or not but what I am attempting I would think should theoretically be possible. I know it is possible in WPF but the company I am working for doesn't want to make the transition just yet. Basically what I want is to use a background image on a form for the background and I have a docked control on the right and left. I have set the background on both of these docked controls to transparent however it is showing the back color rather than the background image. I tried, rather than setting the background image property, to override the onpaintbackground and onpaint events and use e.graphics.draw(picture, me.clientrectangle) but it still seems to just pick up the backcolor as the true transparent background so I'm wondering if it's possible to get it to show the background image through the control rather than the backcolor of the form?

I hoping to find a current and simple way to do this. I'm using VWD Express 2008 and SQL Express 2008.I'm able to get the client's path to the image file using an asp:FileUpload control on the web form.
How do I upload the client's image file and display it in the web form's image control?How do I save it to the sqlserver? The image table is already set up with a "Image" data type column. Can the image be saved to the database as simply as other data types?

i have an assignemnt in my visual basic express 2008 class, were i have to type in an image name, like paris.jpeg,and automatically manipulate the file to be called paris-steg.png. Once this happens i click the manipulate image button and the image should be altered so that paris-steg.png has a message hidden in it. Then i have to decode that message. At this point im having troubel getting the file name to automatically appear as paris-steg.jpeg, and you will proabbly see why with my code. I need to know how to do this. The way i have it, i basiaclly add -steg.png onto the text typed into the text box, this doesnt work when the user types in paris.jpeg as it comes out as paris.jpeg-steg.png. heres the instructiosn and my code
(6) When the text file does not exist, alert the user with a message box and do not do any further processing.
(6) When the image file does not exist, alert the user with a message box and do not do any further processing.

In this program you should read text from a file one character at a time instead of one line at a time. If <tt>sr</tt> is an IO.StreamReader, then <tt>sr.Read()</tt> will return an integer that is the value of the next character in the file. Use <tt>Read</tt> instead of <tt>ReadLine</tt> in this program.You can check whether a file exists by using the code <tt>IO.File.Exists(filename )</tt> . The function will return a Boolean value (True if the file exists but False if not).
You can check whether a string ends with a specified pattern by using the <tt>EndsWidth(pattern )</tt> function. For example, if <tt>s</tt> is a String, then <tt>s.EndsWidth(".txt")</tt> will return a Boolean value (True if <tt>s</tt> ends with the pattern but False otherwise).In a string, <tt>IndexOf(pattern )</tt> gives the first position where the pattern exists, but <tt>LastIndexOf</tt> gives the very last position where the pattern exists.The code <tt>s = Chr(i)</tt> converts the Integer <tt>i</tt> into a character and assigns the character to the string <tt>s</tt> .

I am using Stanav's PdfManipulation2.AddImageToPage(..., Pages) for iTextSharp library (v5.1.3) and was not able to add the image to specific pages: e.g. to add to only page 1 and 3 of a five pages PDF
Dim Pages() As Integer
Pages = New Integer() {1, 3}
PdfManipulation2.AddImageToPage(..., Pages)
Calling AddImageToPage() with the the optional Pages parameter will add the image to all pages though.

I have an MDI form with 3 nested children with in it. As of right now all it can do is display a new form.For example: each time I press the menu button, the new child form(Form1) is created. Now, if I press that same menu button a second or subsequent time a new Form1 is created and it appears over the previous one.
What I would like is that each time the event handler is triggered (a menu item_click on the parent form) that instead of a completely "new" child form being produced(a new window popping up) it would instead pull up the appropriate child form that is attached to the trigger.

I have a mdi application that allows the user to click on a specific report from them Report Menu's. I am calling the report from main, so far this is my code. In this block of code I am calling the report and connecting to the database from the subroutine called libraryReports_click
Using dbConnection As New SqlConnection(strConnection)
Try
dbConnection.Open()
Dim strSelect As String = strSelectionCriteria
[code].....
I get an error everytime i try to load my report, it gives a report load failed error message. BTW I am meaning to change the msgbx to messagebox.show once i get this piece running. I don't know what could be the issue. Any assistance would be great. I think it may have something to do with my sql adapter.fill method.

Given vba's fairly lamentable image manipulation abilities, I'm considering going down the VB.NET form route. My hope would be to allow some degree of interactive manipulation and then either pass the image back to vba or save it and load it in vba.I'm happy to investigate the latter part of it at length under my own steam - however, I'm not versed enough in VB.NET forms to know if calling them from (in this case) Access VBA is a practical or doable - and whether it's possible to pass data back and forth.
