Where Is Resources Folder, Starting From App Path

Jul 12, 2009

How does the exe app know where to look for its Resources folder? In the development folders of my app it is in one place relative to the GetCurrentDirectory, but in a different set of run-time folders, the relative path is different.

Is there a My.Resources property (or some other property) which knows where this folder is? System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory tells the app where it is, is there a 'System.IO.Directory.GetResourcesDirectory' (except of course I know there isn't)?

I want the user to be able to copy image files from wherever into the Resources folder without the user having to look for it (the Resources folder) themselves. I can do the OpenFileDialog1 bit myself, I just need to know where to place the chosen file.

Starting The Program And When The Program Get To The Breakpoint?

Jan 28, 2011

I have used Visual Basic 2008 successfully before.Now i have installed Visual Studio 2010 and want to debug an application i am writing.When in the source code (VB) i can't add a breakpoint using F9 nor by ckicking in the leftmost margin. I can only open the breakpoint window after closing the source code and then add a new breakpoint.

Then when starting the program and when the program get to the breakpoint it stops and show the code with the arrow representing the next line of code to be executed. Then i should be able to step into the code using F8, but nothing happens.

I am using Visual Studio 2010 Version 10.0.30319.1 RTMRel with .NET Framework Version 4.0.30319 RTMRel under Windows XP Pro x86 with Service Pack 3.

VS 2008 Starting Program In Already Started Instance?

Mar 14, 2011

how to PROPERLY make a multi-tabbed or multi-window application that can handle file start requests.

For example, on startup my "Desktop Application" runs and sits there waiting for a task, either through the main menu, or for a file to display in a window. Now the problem is simple, how can I make this already running program load the dropped file (dropped on the executable (!)), instead of starting a new instance.

I understand I will have to check if the process is running, and if so, do some stuff with it. But the problem is passing the message to the active program.

Previously I used text files with paths/arguments in them, but I don't like the idea of the OS/program checking every 500 ms if a file is created in the "load this" folder...

Then I thought of sending a message using "Send Message", for example changing the text in a textbox and handle the "Text Changed" event, but is this reliable? Can any other program interfere with it?

So, basically I need the proper way of doing all of this. For example, Microsoft Visual Studio does this nicely, and no lag whatsoever...

Nov 17, 2009

How do I start writing a program that has 6 text boxes. A person would enter a member number if they have one, number of movies rented at $1.80 a piece. A Text box should then display Total Rental Price, and if a member number was entered, a 10% discount is given (the total of the discount shows up in another text box) and after there discount is applied the Amount Due is displayed in yet another Text Box.

My boxes are named:

memberNumberBox
moviesRentedBox
rentalPriceBox = $1.80
totalPriceBox
discountBox
amountDueBox

This is all supposed to happed when the customer clicks on a calculation button named: Button1

This is what I have so far, but I don't even know if this is correct, as I am getting 1 error relating to a name not being declared. Please help and clue me in to where to start!

Public Class Bonanza
Private Sub memberNumberBox_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles memberNumberBox.TextChanged

Validate That The Chosen Option Is Appropriate For The Rest Of The Row?

Aug 21, 2009

I've searched for a solution with no luck, can you help? I've a DataViewGrid with a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn, bound to a dataTable which all works fine but I need to undo the user selection in some cases.

When the user selects one of options I validate that the chosen option is appropriate for the rest of the row. I can do this in the CellValueChanged Event and easily determine if its good or bad - is this the correct event to do the check?

The problem I have is that I want to roll back to the default value in the DataGridViewComboBoxColumn if an invalid selection is made:

Can VB Play Clips Of Randomly Chosen Avi Files

Apr 3, 2011

Can a media player written in VB be modified to do this: randomly choose an avi file from a directory or subdirectory, choose a random starting point within that file and then play a clip of a random length (within user defined parameters) then without prompting repeat this sequence?

I would like just such a media player but there doesn't appear to be one already out there so my only other option is to write one myself. I know nothing about VB and last programmed in BASIC in the 90s. Before I invest time and effort in learning VB I need to know if it can actualy do this at all.
