SkinCrafter Light Has A Couple Of Bugs With RichTextBoxes?
Feb 16, 2009
When I downloaded VB 2005 Express I took advantage of the bundle of goodies on offer and downloaded SkinCrafter Light.I really like the four skins that come with SkinCrafter Light, and I am using one on my current project (example of the skin I am using here). However, SkinCrafter Light has a couple of bugs with RichTextBoxes (these bugs are known to SkinCrafter, as I can see posts about them in their forum, but they have gone unanswered in over two years!)One bug is that any text that is colored in a RichTextBox is turned back to black when the skin is applied, and if you click anywhere in the RTB the application will crash (you can see my RTB on the right bottom of the form in my screenshot above).
I use colored text in my RTB, but, at a pinch,I could make do without (as I really DO like the Skin), but the problem remains of crashing when clicking inside a RTB.I was wondering (can't test at the moment as I am at work) if simply placing a control, such as a Button, Label, Picture box etc, set to transparent, over the top of the RTB, would solve the problem, so a user could not click inside the RTB (but would be clicking on the invisible control over the top instead).

I am a sys admin for a company and our programmer left several months ago. a program they wrote is now failing and i am struggling to work out why. the program basically pulls data from a csv file into a readable form, written in visual basic. the application works on a couple of machines but not on a couple of others. i have matched up .Net framework versions, MS Primary Interop Assembly versions, still no joy. As the app works on some pc's i am wondering what other differences could cause this?
The error output is:
see the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.
Exception Text
CODE:
JIT Debugging
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this application or computer (machine.config) must have the jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section. The application must also be compiled with debugging enabled.
For example:
CODE:
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer rather than be handled by this dialog box.

I am getting these constant annoying errors in Visual Basic .NET 2010 Express. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one, but these errors are always relating to images and resources The Type 'Global.ExampleProject.My.Resources.Resources' has no property named 'example.png'I am pretty sure these are bug, due to the fact that I get these errors after a while in most of my projects - it's absolutely annoying! Most solutions include removing the resources (commenting them out of the form designer code) and re-importing them... But then the problem comes back again after the project has been loaded a few times!
Microsoft suggest this is rather a user-related issue rather than a bug due to the fact that they can't reproduce the error.I'm still sticking to the belief of this being a bug - anyone get this error alot of the time?This is not the only bug I get - sometimes VB stops working when I try to build my projects!

I stucked in trouble recently preparing for distrubute MS Access 2003 Application(mde) with 2003 runtime module.The function SUM() isn't work properly if a table has mulit rows. if mouse over the issued row, then it calculated.If update Office SP1,2,3, it works, which means MS already know the issue.My applcations is running with Access 2003 runtime all the time evenif user alredy have Office installed.Problem is that a user who has Office 2003 product and already updated Office SP, after installed our product, need to update again to fix runtime bugs. This is very weird for users becasue they somethimes need to install SP twice.

I'm looking for a feature request/bug tracking web tool that would allow for the following: Allows end users to enter their feature request. Allows end users to see their feature requests and other requests that are "publicly" visible (from other users) with things like timelines, progress updates, etc Would allow for individual URLs to give to users like [URL] and [URL] Can integrate sign-on information from a current SQL Server I'm sure that a tool like this must already exist and I'd like to hear feedback from some of the other programmers on here.

I have an image of a lamp that the user can move around the form.. I have a button for on and one for off.. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I would make the light effect? Can you make it programatically? Like a V shape with the bottom of the V being the sides of the lamp shade and everything in the path of the V becomes illuminated?

Simulate a traffic light with three small square text boxes on the form. Initially the bottom text box is green, the rest are dark gray. When the tab key is pressed, the middle box turns yellow and the bottom box turns dark gray. The next time the tab is pressed, the top box turns red and the middle box turns dark gray. Subsequent pressing of the tab key cycles through the three colors. Hint: First place the bottom text box on the form, then the middle, then the top. I did all this and dabbled below. Does that look at all correct...minus the timer thing...I got the timer code (which is not needed) but am not sure how to write it so the tab key does the work. This is really confusing to me, but it is a required class.
Dim Counter As Single
Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
Counter = Counter + 1

Simulate a traffic light with three text boxes placed vertically on a form. initially, the bottom text box is solid green and the other text boxes are dark grey. when the tab key is pressed, the middle text box turns yellow and bottem box turns dark grey. next time the tab key is pressed, the top box turns red and the bottem two turn dark grey. Basically the tab key cycles through the colors.First off let me say im not looking for an entire code. What im looking new to VB (been working on it for only a week) and im haven trouble finding a sourcecode for "tab". I named the bottem text box "Green", middle text box "yellow" and top "Red"....how do i go about finishing the code?

I am supposed to be writing a program for my instructor using VB 2008. It is sort of like a quiz program. You build the "light bulb" program but instead of names and colors, it consists of two forms. Question 1 with a "next" button and the second form for Question 2 with a "previous" button. I have no idea how to link the two so that when you click "next" it goes to the second page and vice versa.

I am trying to do is to draw a ray of light emitted by a light source and it is going to be reflected mirrors. I rotate the emitter and mirrors and the ray of light shold obey the laws of reflection. The emitter and mirrors are in an opaque room which means light should not go out. Where I am now is that I am able to draw the ray but when the angle is 90 degrees ( +or-) all the drawing disappears. I set some conditions to make up for this situation, but it does not seem to work. Besides if the angle exceeds 90 degrees, the line is drawn in the opposite direction.One other thing that happens is I set the ray to stop when either end_x_emitter_ray or end_y_emitter_ray = 500. It works for the end_x_emitter_ray but not for the end_y_emitter_ray[end_x_emitter_ray and end_y_emitter_ray are the point where the ray end]I have uploaded the my whole code here. Can you guys suggest me what can be done to make it work appropriately?

I'm trying to make a light version of a Blackjack game. The rules I need to use are as follows:
Ace = 1
Normal Cards = 2-10
Color Cards (king, queen, etc,) = 11
The dealer can keep hitting until it reaches 17 or under 21, he must always stay once it hits 17 or over (without busting obviously).
I know the ace normally should be 1 or 11 normally but I don't want to complicate things, I want to get the main thing of the program working first.

How do I combine richtextboxes? Currently, I am directly saving rich text to a RTB with ".rtf" and I would like to append the rich text information to that box from another RTB. Something like: RTB.rtf &= newrichbox.rtf do not throw any flags but also does not work. What I am ultimately trying to do is save multiple richtextboxes to a single RTF file. I was trying to do it by combining them all into one RTB and using ".savefile()" or is there a better way? Maybe appending them to the file one RTB at a time?
What I'm doing is generating a report, so I have built generic rich text templates that go into multiple RTBs that will create the form sections and I have left placeholders for the data I am adding, so I do replaces on the placeholders to insert the data. However, there are a couple dozen different possible formats for the report based on user options, so I built each section into its own RTB so I can just write out the relevant sections when it comes time to generate the file.

My boss wants me to create local databases on the light-side of things. I was researching on what solutions are available, we discussed the possibility of using text or xml files... but we dropped the idea since we want to use SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE command sets (or the like)I proposed the idea of using Access files (mdb) but he told me that he doesn't want the user to have Access installed on their computers.What are the choices avaible, am I forced to install Access on machines that would be using my VB .NET app to access mdb files?

How do I add tables to a RichTextBox in VB.NET 2010?
I've tried adding the tables by using RTF codes, but I can't get that to work. And there is nothing like richTextBox1.AddTable() which would make things very simple. At least, if there is, I haven't found it.

I'm working on a project in vb.net 2010 that has 3 RichTextBoxes. Two of the RichTextBoxes can be loaded with text from text files. How do I take the multiple lines of text from each RichTextBox and combine them into the 3rd RichTextBox.
For example, if 2 of the RichTextBoxes contain the following lines of text:
(RichTextBox1)
Monday
Tuesday
Wednesday
(RichTextBox2)
Jan
Feb
Mar
I want the 3rd RichTextBox to show following result:
(RichTextBox3)
MondayJan

I have 2 richtextboxes on a form and I want to link their vertical scrollbars i.e. ifrichtextbox1's scroll bar is moved then richtextbox2's scroll bar moves by the same amount.The reason for this is that both richtextboxes will contain almost identical text barring a few differences in the second richtextbox. By linking the scroll bars my hope is that the user can better compare the textboxes for any differences between them. I have looked at trying to find a scroll bar property but can not find one. Does one exist?

The code I came up with ALMOST works... but almost is not enough.
1.) all 3 of my richtextboxes have the same quantity of lines, always.
2.) When I scroll one of them, I want them all to scroll in unison, as if they were 1 richtextbox.
Here is the code I have that ALMOST works right....
Public LastLineNumber As Integer
Public HighestVisibleLine As Integer = 16
Public LowestVisibleLine As Integer = 0
