Show Form After Load / Place Everything?
Dec 27, 2011
I have a little problem, nothing very serious, but something that anoys me and i can�t solve.
I have a VB.NET windows form project, with a main MDI form containing a menu.
I load all forms with:
Private Sub MostrarFormulario(ByRef formulario As Form)
Try
formulario.MdiParent = Me
formulario.BackgroundImage = Me.BackgroundImage
formulario.BackgroundImageLayout = Me.BackgroundImageLayout
[Code]...
When show the form, i can see all combos / grids / objects being placed and feeded. Its a fraction of second (in fast machines). All my objects placing and loading are made in the Activated event.(because some combos data may have been added/deleted and the app can have multiples form oppened at the same time).
Is there a method for loading everything first (not showing) and then display all at the same time?

I have 7 Windows forms.The order of the forms is defined within a configuration file.I want to place buttons on each form that will show the next available options.The Next button will move the next form in the list.The Back button will move to the previous form in the list. The Finish button will execute the final piece of code.The Cancel button will exit the application.If the user is on the first form, then there is no Back button.If the user is on the last form, then there is no Next button, but there is a Finish button.
Example 1:
Form1 - Next, Cancel
Form3 - Next, Back, Cancel[code]....

I want to show a dialog box or form immediately after my application loads. If I place a .showdialog in the main form load event the dialog shows before the application shows.
I'm trying to give some user tips when they load my application.

I am just a beginner in vb .net. I am now developing a window-based software.This is the problem:
1. After the user log-in, the system must show the parent form and automatically show the main transaction form base on the user role or user accessibility in my system manager. Is it possible to do this?
2. In my menulist, I need to recognize which menulist.item is selected. So, I need to bold the letter of the selected menulist.item or underline the word.

I need to know how create a number that increases every time my main form is loaded. This would go in succession. So the first time after putting this code in it would show the number 1. The second time I open my main form it would show a number 2, and so on.

In an attempt to learn VB I'm trying to build a database project for a friend's business. This db will be used to track customer information, predominantly for targeted marketing purposes. So far, the development has been slow (I'm still trying to adapt from VBA to VB), but its all starting to make sense now. I'm using two different forms for adding new customers and reviewing the information of existing customers, mainly because the database will grow by about 2,500 customers per year and we wanted to be able to search the records without returning every record when the forms load. Most of this works so far, but I'm having trouble with two issues.
When I open the new customer entry form, I want the form to automatically begin entering data without clicking the "Add New" button. The second problem involves the row ID from the database. It keep showing up as "-1", "-2" etc. The row ID records properly in the table, so no big deal. I have read that this problem is a bug in VB and that its nothing to worry about. However, down the road I will need to access the correct row ID from this same form in order to print out a report for the customer (as needed).
For what its worth here is the code I have so far:
Code:
'Update current record when the form closes
Private Sub frmNewCustomer_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
Me.TblCustomersBindingSource.EndEdit()
Me.TblCustomersTableAdapter.Update(Me.dsNewCustomer.tblCustomers)
[Code] .....

i have been coding for years, but never integrated XML. So I guess I'm a newbie. I have inserted an XSD file in my project, ARequest.xsd. I created a folder in my project called XML just to organize things, so this file ARequest.xsd, is in this folder.
Now I have a form that displays data from a database that has the same fields that are in this XSD file. Can I load the XSD file into my Windows Form, load the elements from the data on the windows form and then create an XML file then send it? If so how? Any code snippets would be helpful. Now I do know how to create the XML file, we'll call it Test as

I have an .avi video (500 MB-50 minutes) that I embedded using the following code in VB.NET:
<OBJECT width="360px" height="360px" CLASSID="CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6" VIEWASTEXT>
<PARAM name="autoStart" value="False">
[Code]....
Worked fine except that it took approx 5 minutes to load. Converted it to a wmv file (cutting it down to 300 MB) and it started playing instantly while it download. Unfortunately there are some computers that will not play it for some reason. It will load and the timer starts up as if the video is playing but there is just a black screen. I ran some tests and determined that it's not a browser issue.
How can I upload a video that instantly plays on all computers?

The following code does create a form within a form and does place NotePad inside the child form. You have to manually start NotePad prior to execution (I work on that later) but the code does work¦ My problem is now I want to manipulate the properties of notepad i.e. focus, size, location, etc. but I cannot figure out how to reference notepad and its properties.

Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.OleDb
Public Class Form1
Dim con As OleDbConnection
Dim cmd As OleDbCommand
[CODE]...............
The insertion part of the form works great. But my problem is in the form load part......If i leave a field blank(Null),then perform Save operation,close the form after successful insertion and then reopen the form,then it retains the previous values during the form load......This is only in case where i leave a field blank in the previous data entry in the database.......But if i enter values in all fields then form load is working great.

I have been trying to place a form inside a panel. This has been achieved by[code]...
In the IterationForm, I have values being calculated and displayed as and when an operation is being performed.
In the panel it shows only the blank form. I need to have those values displayed as well.
I have tried using MDI parent with my menustrip1, same thing, that is the form being displayed without the values.

Well im currently developing an application for public use, I have a login screen in which the user enter's their registered credential's and the progressbar loads by increments of 3, now i placed 6 labels ontop of eachother and where the progressbar coding is i put:
If Progressbar.Value >= 1 Then
Label3.Show()
If Progressbar.Value >= 20 Then
Label3.Hide()
Label4.show()
And so on up until Label8 Show at 100%,
Now the problem is... As i have placed the labels ontop of eachother i need them hidden until they are called to show, i have tried adding a background worker to do this but have had no luck, all i see is the labels overlapping eachother when i run my application when i want them hidden untill Label3.Show() is called, and then to display them as they are called and hide them when another one is called to show...

Like I imagine everyone, I often have problems navigating my code because the flow can jump from place to place. For example, if my code calls routine1, and I then want to go to routine1's code, I know that I can click in the dropdown menu and it will take me to that sub. But wouldn't it be easier if I could somehow right click on the call to routine way and select something like 'take me there' which would transport me from the function making the call to the code for the function being called? Then it would be easy to hop from place to place.

I have designed a form in VB.NET. At design time I have placed two buttons on it. When I run it, the form size looks smaller and the buttons I have placed at the bottom are not visible. Also the alignment of the text and picture box is also different from what I set at design time. Computer at which I am running the form is using a different resolution.

I'm switching from an MDI approach to switch between pages to a tabbed dialog control. Is there any way to place a form into tabbed dialog control?I'm guessing not, but the next option (and this was suggested awhile ago by JM) is to make a user control. I have ~ 20 some odd forms and making a new control for all of them could be a pain.

I've got a project that generates a sql query and returns the results. I want to place a time/counter on the form that shows how long it takes to return the query from the server. Basically to count up in seconds from 0 while that sub is executing. Would threading be the best way to do this or is there another way that I'm missing?
