I also want to know if its possible to send the data from vb application to a particular file in excel?

I have named Button1 as Scan. When i click on Scan, the Button2(Pause) and Button3(Stop) should be displayed. When it is scanning, i have placed the progress bar with the timer. When the progress bar finishes loading, Button2(Pause) and Button3(Stop) should be hidden again.

View 1 RepliesI want to create a button that can hide an exe application. As example: this application will start spider.exe when page loads. I need a button that can hide & show the spider.exe. How can I do it with VB.NET, C#, or Java?
I tried to use:
myProcess.StartInfo.WindowStyle = System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle.Normal
myProcess.Start()
in page load part, and use
myProcess.StartInfo.WindowStyle = System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
in button part but it does not work.
When I press "Show Desktop" button in the taskbar my main form "disappears". The only way to show it again is by pressing an other program which is open in the taskbar (lets say Word) to rise and unrise again.

View 3 RepliesI'm curious if it is possible to hide a group of text boxes from view in a form until a particular condition is met, and to have a custom set of text boxes for that condition. To give an example; I want radio buttons offering choices for a manner of searching records, the user selects one and then a specific set of text boxes are displayed for the user to utilize, if a different option is chosen a different set of text boxes will be shown. Is this something that can be done?
View 7 RepliesI've written a simple program to hide the taskbar clock and close upon load and I've read a lot of different articles on how to close a program correctly and read a multitude of different answers so I thought I'd just post the code and see if it is written cleanly. Also, I am in the process of trying to get the taskbar to refresh after the hide code has ran and how to refresh it would be great too but is not the main question of this article. I'm using Visual Studio 2008 using the Visual Basic Development settings and I have vista 64-bit. Here's the code:

I have a program with which I can open a second form on a beamer, this works perfect, but what I do notice it that on the taskbar (I have windows 7) I see the main icon of the app but also the form that is created.What I would like is that the second icon is not displayed on the taskbar thumbnails, this way I can't close the second form by the X but only by a button on the main app.
View 2 RepliesI have a vb.net 2008 application which has its corresponding icon.
The icon shows correctly except in the taskbar when the "small icon" setting is on.
My vb.net project includes a .ico file which when I see in the IDE includes 16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 64x64 and 256x256 bitmaps, in 4, 24 and 32 bits, also 3 .png images in 256x256 32 bits each.
I made the icon myself simply using a 64x64 bitmap and then converting it to .ico, and assigning it to the application in the project properties. I thought windows would use and escalate the corresponding image, it shows even in the file explorer properly in the small icon form, but not in the taskbar.

View 12 RepliesI've created a form that plays some internet radio. The thing is the user wants an extra form for volume control that is docked to the side of the main form. This is no problem, i've made that, but im having some trouble making this form shown at the same time as the main form.In short what i want is that when you set focus on form1, form2 should also get in the foreground. Not focused, it should just follow form1
