I want it to show the first MsgBox if the NewEntryName.text = "" and I want it to show the second MsgBox if openfiledialog1 = nothing... how do I do it?
I achieve to record and stop recording (manually with a button).
Now i want somehow to automatically stop recording after some seconds.
I used the following methods which did not work:
1. Used a timer to call the stoprecording function (I found out that while recording the timer did not work) I tested it with an msgbox and i was right, the msg box appeared 5 secs after pressing the stoprecording button!!!!
2. Used the System.Timers.Timer but nothing
3. I tried the CAPTUREPARMS structure but i`m doing something wrong and it doesn`t record.
Here`s my initialization:
Dim MyParams As New CAPTUREPARMS
With MyParams
.dwRequestMicroSecPerFrame = 66667

Is there any type of msgbox in vb.net that gives a message and disappears automatically after a certain time?
Or is there any method to hide the msgbox, without user's clicking OK?

View 2 RepliesI have tried to add a splash page to my app. I've tried the MinimumSplashScreenDisplayTime" Property, but it doesn't seem to work. (Don't bother trying to explain that to me again. I've given up on that.) Therefore, I will just work the splash screen as a form (like everything else). start it when the application starts and close it (automatically) after 4 seconds?
View 4 RepliesI have a windows form application that will open other forms, but will only display the forms for a few seconds (user configurable). I would normally do something like threading.thread.sleep(n), however when doing this the forms controls do not load only the white background shows, and I have also been reading that this isnt the best practice for what I am after as user input will not be actioned until the thread wakes up.
I have come across people using System.Timers.Timer(n), but I am struggling to get this to work for me, the form will only open and close straight away (you can only see a flash as the form opens then closes).
The code that I am using is:
Private Shared tmr As New System.Timers.Timer
aForm.Show()
tmr = New System.Timers.Timer(aSleep * 60 * 60)
[Code].....
This is all contained within a Private sub that passes the form and the defined run time.
My intention is to have the main application running from the task bar, which then calls one of the forms that will display for a defined period of time, close the form, then call another one of the forms.
Is any able to point me in the right direction for why the form opens then closes without seeing through the defined run time (I have been testing with 10 seconds), or is there a better way of doing what I am seeking?
i want to make it automaticly close after 2 seconds of opening it without having to touch a button or anything like that.

View 16 RepliesI'd like to show a NotifyIcon BalloonTip to the user and close it after two seconds.No matter what value I enter there it never closes, unless I keep moving the mouse and then it always closes after exactly 10 seconds. After doing a Google search I found this page.Here are two quotes from that page.
Quote:
The BallonTip timeout is only respected if the shell detects the "user presence" (i.e. mouse moves or keyboard input). If none of these happen (because you are watching the bubble) it will sit there indefinately. The logic behind this design being that users should not miss notifications when they are away from their machines. This is the "By Design" shell behavior.
Minimum and maximum timeout values are enforced by the operating system and are typically 10 and 30 seconds, respectively, however this can vary depending on the operating system. If you declare timeout value as less than minimum, the real timeout will be minimum; while the value more than maximum will be changed into maximum value. So timeout values that are too large or too small are adjusted to the appropriate minimum or maximum value.is there any way to force it to close after two seconds? My BalloonTips are shown based on the action of the user and not during some background process, so 10 seconds is way too long.
I am using the MsgBox Function as a help on my program to notify users of unusable entries in my program. After the MsgBox pops up, and the user clicks on either 'OK' or 'Cancel', the program need to clear the box that the bad data was entered in, and continue with the program. What I am trying to do I guess is keep the program from returning unusable values by informing the user of entries that will return such values. But, where I am running into a problem is in when I click on OK or Cancel, the program continues as if nothing was called as a result of the MsgBox info being thrown.
Here is the code I have so far, mind you that I have used several of the other MsgBox codes to no avail.
I think what I need to do is have a line of code that calls my "textbox.clear" if certain criteria are met. but when I tried this, the program did not return to my GUI, it simply ran with a value of "0" in the "textbox.text" that the clear was called on.
How can I make an autoclicker that senses when the mouse is moving and when it stops it automatically clicks. Such as every single second it checks for the mouses location and if the mouse is in the same location for 4 seconds it automatically clicks.
View 6 RepliesI have read a lot about the sluggishness of VS 2005 (VB in my case). Its generally very slow, especially if you get above 5'000 lines of code.However, I also experience a lot of freezes when trying to copy some lines of code. It will freeze for up to 10 seconds before I can continue working.
View 13 RepliesIf you open up a PDF file and select File > SaveACopy you'll see the Adobe acrobat SaveAs dialog that I'm working with. Typically I'm dealing with it when the PDF is showing in Internet Explorer (I'm automating PDF downloads by controlling the File > SaveAs option).
If the destination file already exists, the dialog will popup a tiny messagebox asking if I want to replace the existing file Yes or No. It is this popup that I'm trying to close, but I can't seem to find it. When I run enumWindows to get all the top level windows, it doesn't show up. That's probably because I can see, in Spy++, that it has a parent window (the Adobe SaveAs dialog box). So i tried running EnumChildWindows to get all the child windows of the Adobe SaveAs dialog - but the popup doesn't show up on this list either (I know this because I did a WM_GettText on each child window and nothing matched the tiny popup).
I'm not sure if FindWindow would do it - but i'm leery of that because, at least on my home computer, both the popup and the Adobe SaveAs window have the same title text, namely "SAVE AS" so i'm not sure which one it would find - in fact I seem to recall I tried that already.
Whenever I try, the save file dialog comes up when I hit No and same when I hit Cancel....
If My.Settings.SaveSTS = False Then
MsgBox("Do you wish to save your changes?", MsgBoxStyle.YesNoCancel)
If MsgBoxResult.Yes Then
If My.Settings.OnceSaved = True Then
Dim writer As New IO.StreamWriter(SaveName)

I want to have a msgbox when user press 'backspace' in the textbox.
I wrote this:
Private Sub TextBox2_KeyPress(ByVal KeyAscii As Integer)
If KeyAscii = 8 Then
MsgBox("backspace")
End If
End Sub
Why it doesn't work?
When displaying a message to the user using 'msgbox', is it possible to have the msgbox close after a set period of time, if the user has not clicked on OK?
View 2 RepliesI have the following code Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick Dim mesaj As New Integer
[Code]...
The timer interval is set to 5000(5 seconds), but every time when the timer is ticking the msgbox appears on screen but the in the file msg.txt is writting once. So, The timer check if that unic is different from unic1, and if is different shows up a msg box, and it's writting the new line in msg.txt, but on next timer tick, even if the unic and unic1 are equals the msgbox shows up anyway, but it's more interesting because it doesn't write again in file, only shows up the msgbox. I don't understand this.

Can i show seconds and minutes to or just Milliseconds

Is there any difference between the two:
msgbox()
messagebox.show()
Some tutorials use msgbox() some use the other messagebox.show()---I see that both can have an editable style but I was wondering why there are two.
Is it to accommodate for older programmers (who have learnt on an older version of visual basic).
So in that case which one should I use on VB 2010 (VS 2010)
I've a really nice fullscreen code I found on the internet, the only problem I found was that you can't make msgbox show or open another form! Which is really bothering me making panels.visible = true/false to make a cheap way of "Forms"orm1.
Private Sub TryToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Call normalScreen()
