Ive made a settings form for my latest StopWatch project. The stopwatch also includes a countdown timer. To set the time to countdown from, ive made a settings form in which you can enter a value into a textbox and when you start the countdown, it reads the value from the textbox and counts down from that value.
[Code]...
Is it possible to have a Textbox on a form that when the user inputs data, ( during Runtime )that data remains in the Textbox for good and the Textbox then becomes read only ? Is it also possible to make it so that the CD with the programme on, is in the PC when the programme is being used. Perhaps writing the Textbox data back onto the CD ?
View 1 RepliesI have created a settings-file for my plug-in-based app. When the mainApp writes the settings to the file, the pluginApp should read the settings from the settings-file (when opening or at runtime even better), but somehow it reads the settings from the app.config-file. This means that the pluginApp never will read the settings according the values of the file.
View 4 RepliesI am trying to figure out how to get the max record count before i populate a listview grid. I'm using the Oracle 10g DB and I've tried:
SELECT COUNT(*) as countNum, status, date, theTitle, theMessage, date2 " & _
"FROM blah blah...
messagebox.show(dr(0))
But that makes the SQL query crash. It doesnt seem as though i am about to put anything related to "count" in my query or it will crash so is there any other way i can see how many records it returns other than that?
Heres what I need:
1. A way to save settings (Exp.: userkey=randomkey)
2. A way to than read these settings from inside the form.
3. A way to convert settings to strings.
4. A way for users to edit settings
5. No external files.
In ASP.NET, I can just put my mailSettings in web.config and then ystem.Net.Mail.SmtpClient's default constructor will read them. In a regular VB.NETroject, not ASP.NET, I thought I could just put mailSettings in app.config. HoweverSmtpClient() doesn't appear to read settings from app.config. Is there a step I'm missing in order to tell a VB.NET application to read from app.config?
View 3 RepliesI know how to read user input using textbox but it only can read character and numbers. Is it possible that I want to read user input equation?
Example:
User type A+B
User put range of A and B.
1.25<A< 3.56
2.45<B< 9.87
I failed to read the equation using textbox. Is it there are other ways that can use to read equation input A+B?I am using VS2005 and VB.Net. I really new in this programming using VB.Net.
I'm trying to use the following command:
Dim xmlFilePath As String = _
System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("XmlFilePath")
to retrieve the following setting:
<applicationSettings>
<MySolution.WebProject.My.MySettings>
<setting name="XmlFilePath" serializeAs="String">
[Code]....
However, xmlFilePath shows up as Nothing after that line of code is run.
What's the correct code to get a setting out of the web.config file in an ASP.NET application?
NOTE: Although you can add keys individually to the <appsettings> tag, I'm trying to figure out how to use it with the "Settings" tab in the project's properties.
I bet someone already asked this but i cant seem to find it. Ok i need is a global settings that can be updated which will affect all users. I was using xml files in the program filestill now and I need to get around using this because the files can be delete or over written incorrectly. I started using the settings option and realized application level is read only and i cannot use user scope because then it wont be global settings. Is there an alternative to this.
View 5 RepliesI read that the use of ini-files is a bit outdated and the use of XML is now. I have searched he net now for some time to find examples/tutorials about this 'feature", but I only can find C# examples.
View 11 RepliesIs there a simple way to read from the global application.exe.config file from a dll?urrently I am loading the file as an XmlDocument but I wonder if there is a better solution.That's what I mean:If I create a new WinForms Project I have a Settings Tab in the Project properties where I can add some simple values (And I want to access the per Application settings, not the user beased ones).From my code I can access these values with:
Console.WriteLine(Properties.Settings.Default.SomeValue);
The Settings class is autogenerated in the file Settings.Designer.cs.Now I have the case where a dll need's to read the settings from the Main Application's config file. Is there a simple way to achive this? Currently I am reading the file as an XML Document.

I have an application that I need to be able to read and save a bunch of registry settings before they are changed. The purpose of this is to revert any new changes back to the original configuration. My application checks the state of each of the registry keys on startup. Is there a way to have it save the current configuration and then reload that configuration later ?

Design and code a project to calculate the amount due and provide a summaray of rentals. All movies rent for $1.00 and all customers receive a %10 discount. The form should contain input for the member number and the number of movies rented. INside a groupbox display the rental amount, the 10 percent discount, and the amount due. inside a second groupbox, display the number of customers served and the total rental income.(afterdiscount).Include buttons for Calculate, clear, print and exit. The clear button clears the information for the current rental but does not clear the sumarry information. A print button allows the user to print the form. Do not allow bad input data to cancel the program; instead display a message to the user.[code]...

View 9 RepliesI am having an issue doing the following:I would like to be able to count how many carriage return there is in a textbox.Is there a function that already exists that could search in the textbox the amount of carriage return ?
View 10 RepliesThere are 3 textboxes->textbox1,textbox2,textbox3 and 1 button.In textbox1 bname will be stored and in textbox2 aname is stored.Bname and aname are columns of databasetable.This are not unique.There are same bnames and anames records.What I am trying to do is:when the user clicks on button then the code should match textbox1 and textbox2 with the databasetable and get the count of rows that match this data.
And print the count in the textbox3.If there is no similar bname and aname in the table then the count should show 0.I tried doing this but am pretty sure that its not right as its not working.
