Setting Text Of Label Added At Runtime?
Apr 18, 2011
I've added some Labels to a form at runtime using this
vb.net
Dim x As Integer = 25
For i As Integer = 1 To word.Length
[Code]....
Now, I would like to add text to one of them, but I'm not sure how. I thought by setting .Name I would simply be able to write something like lbl4.text ="A". But, of course, because the Label has not been created yet, this is not possible.
Also, I'm not even sure if .Name is working the way I think it is. I was hoping that it would name each Label consecutively: lbl1, lbl2, lbl3, lbl4...etc.
Am I naming the Labels properly? And how would I add text to one of these Labels?

I am adding controls to a page programatically in the code behind. I add an asp:Label and set it's Text value. I add an asp:TextBox and set it's Text value. Both Text values are returned in the Response and displayed in the browser. All fine so far.
The user performs an action that causes a postback. I re-load the dynamically added asp:Label and asp:TextBox. When the Response is returned to the browser, only the asp:TextBox Text value is displayed. The asp:Label Text value is not. If I inspect the HTML I can see the asp:Label control (rendered as an HTML span tag) but no value.
How can I get the code to automatically re-load the Text value of an asp:Label on each postback? Why is the behaviour different for an asp:Label and an asp:TextBox? I do not want to have to manually re-set the Text value on each postback.
Here is some code similar to what I am doing (placeHolderNameplates is an asp:PlaceHolder control on the aspx page): Protected Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Init
If Not Page.IsPostBack Then

I have very new to VB. I was just fiddling and ran into this. I cant set the text alignment of a text box twice with the focus events as well as cant set or reset the password char property. The code is given below:
Private Sub tbxLogin_LostFocus(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles tbxLogin.LostFocus
If tbxLogin.Text = String.Empty Then
'tbxLogin.ResetText()
tbxLogin.ForeColor = Color.Gray
'tbxLogin.TextAlign = HorizontalAlignment.Center
'trying to align the tbx gives it focus

I have an xml document on the internet right. Lets say it contains:
<tag>goose</tag>
What I want to do, is when the user clicks a button in my vb form it looks for the "tag" tag and finds the text inside the tags which is goose. Then it sets a label to equal goose, or whats in those tags.

How do you refer to controls that are added at runtime e.g. I can add a combobox and a handler, but trying to reference the controls name in code gives an 'not defined', error so in my example, the control is visible, but I cant populate the combo box or use it in anyway.

I am building a program which will add items to a menu and launch the appropriate application by clicking the menu item I have added. I have linked to a data file and retrieved the ApplicationID, ApplicationName and ApplicationLink, the later being the location of the EXE file on the selected computer.I believe I can create an EventHandler on the fly to hold the link for each application[code].....
The above will add the Name to the menu, but I can't seem to SHELL the ApplicationLink.

[URL]its a free hoster, so you have to wait 10 seconds.First here's the steps to replicate, then I'll explain what the problem is:
(1) Create a System.Windows.Forms.UserControl and add a button to the bottom-right hand corner. Leave the button anchor as default (top-left). Add some more buttons dotted around so that you can see that they scale correctly.
(2) Add the UserControl to a form in the construtor, after the InitializeComponent call.
(3) Run the form.
(4) Increase the form font size some way (eg click a form button).
All the controls within the usercontrol scale perfectly but the usercontrol itself doesn't. It's width and height are increased by way too much. Look at the margin now between the button at the bottom-right hand corner and the usercontrol.To correct the problem, the usercontrol must be added before the InitializeComponent call.If it wasn't possible for me to add the usercontrol before InitializeComponent, is there any way for me to correct the scaling?

I am creating a program which allows the user to add some buttons during runtime. Each button can be moved, sized and added to any tab on a tabcontrol. What I would really like to do is binary serialize a class that contains the properties of each button including which tab it's on.

I have a form, with lables and textboxes added at runtime. The labels and textboxes are added properly on form load and display as expected. The form allows tabing into each of the textboxes, but the textbox does not allow user input.
Is this a problem with the way I show the form to the user? >> this particular form is called (frmname.show) from a different form -- If I test this form directly, without being called from a different form, it allows user input in the textboxes. Is it because of the properties I used to create the textbox? >> properties used were - .name, .size, .location, .tag

I programatically / runtime created combobox and bind it to a datasource but can not set its default value. Since I am using the Handler of SelectedValueChanged, this is causing the program to mis-fire. Here is the code I am using.
Public WithEvents T_combo as ComboBox
'dictionary holds data to use in other parts of program
Dim T_Dict As New Dictionary(Of String, String)

I am kind of an old 'newbee' at this, so bear with me for a moment. I am developing a windows forms application in Visual Studio 2010 Professional that connects to a remote database (MS sqlServer 2008 R2).To speed up development, I configured a DataSource and used the data objects associated with it. In VB6,
the data source could be assigned to the data objects during runtime using a variety of different runtime database connections, ODBC, ADO, ...
I have been unable to find a similar method with the VS2010 Visual Basic DataSource and underlying TableAdapter, BindingSource, BindingNavigator, down to the individual ComboBox and assorted other bound controls. It's convenient to have the integration, but I've got different users with different permissions, The long and short is that I'd like to be able to assign the data source during runtime operation, at least to the connection string level.

Is there a way to do something like: (where csinglechar is the number being read from the text file)
Dim Number_File As String = "numbers.txt"
Dim read_numbers As New System.IO.StreamReader(Number_File)
Dim intsinglechar As Integer
[Code]....
When a number is read in the text file, the label: labelNUMBER_FROM_TEXT_FILE increments by one.

I am converting a 1.1 .NET web app to 3.5, and I've run into a bit of a jam.
One web control has a Property that sets the page title label on that web control.
End Property
When a page with the web control was loaded before, it would set the Property to a given string, like in ucHeader.PageTitle = "This is a string." Now, if I don't remove the lblPageTitle.Text = Value, I get a NullReference Exception.

i am writing a VB front end (VS 2008 .NET 3.5) to a data loading program that involves moving the contents of CSV flat files into SQL Server 2005 staging tables. I have had some experience with DTS in SQL 2000 so I decided to use SSIS packages to load the CSV data. Creating the packages in BIDS worked fine for the development environment where I hard-coded the Connections and file paths. The problem arises when I will release this program to 30 different sites that do not have SQL Server admins to help changing the configuration.
I have a SQL table in which I will put all the necessary path information and I can pull that into the VB program on startup. I need to see an example of how I can set the properties from VB once the package is instantiated and opened.Here is an example of where I plan to set those properties and run the packages.
Private Function RunPackages() As Boolean
Try
Dim oApp As New Application
Dim oPackage As New Package
[code]....
Even though I am using a configuration file in the example, I am finding it difficult to edit the configuration files for each site. I see that there are methods and properties exposed for the oPackage instance. However, I can't find a good reference for the Class model to use as a guideline. All the examples expect packages to be run and configured with SQL Server and BIDS. direct manipulation of package properties in VB or C#?I am now considering using the old standby SQL Bulk Insert. It almost appears as if the Data Tasks are just wrappers for the Bulk Insert operation. Furthermore we have several sites still using SQL Server 2000. With the economy the way it is, most of those sites do not want to spend ANY extra money upgrading to SQL 2005 or 2008.
However, having a good resource to learn how to manipulate SSIS packages from the CLR would be very helpful. I have heard that in SQL 2008 things have changed even more. It is maddeneing that once I learn a "new" Microsoft technology it seems to be discarded by MS in their next release in favor of a "better" alternative.
