I have a button with DialogResult OK set.

I have a START and STOP button and when the user clicks "start" the program does a whole bunch of calculations and all. However, I noticed that when I was testing the program I clicked STOP the program continues to execute stuff.
My START code is basically a while loop that iteratively does some calculations.
So I just put a boolean variable as the while condition and when user clicks stop its set to false and when user clicks start its set to true. However, when I click stop, the condition is set to false yes but it still executes all the code until the condition is re-evaluated right...so my question is how can I get out of the while loop when user instantly clicks "stop"?
I am compiling and running code at runtime. Can I stop this code midway through if I wish? Like the 'stop' feature in Visual Studio that stops the code if desired?

View 2 RepliesI have a VB.NET form (CopyScenarioForm) with a OK button (DialogResult property = OK) and also assigned it as 'Accept Button" for the Form.
I show this form from my main Form (mainForm) using
If DialogResult.OK = CopyScenarioForm.ShowDialog() Then
DoSomething()
End if
Now when user clicks on the CopyScenarioForm.OK button, I want to validate his entries and if invalid I want to 'Exit Sub' from the OK button's click handler but when I do that the form still closes out and DoSomething() gets executed. Is there a way to stop this and keep the form alive and only exit if the inputs are valid. I noticed, if I change the OK button's DialogResult property to 'NONE' instead of 'OK' then it doesn't cause it to close. but then how Do I know how the user exited the form to execute DoSomething().
I need to disable a button after its pressed so the user does not have the ability to click it again as this would replicate the process in some cases.After alot of searching I found some tips - alot of code I found I could not understand.This is what I have come up with:
On page load:
If Me.Page.IsPostBack Then
'lblDetails.Text = "disabled"
[code]....
I also read somewhere that I should use: System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000) to delay the process or something - not entirely sure why I would do this though.Although, the problem with my above code is that when the code behind page performs validation checks, it exits sub before executing my INSERT SQL code - so when it does this it also disables the button.I am not entirely sure if the above method is fool proof or whether it is a **** piece of code that won't work 100% of the time.On another website I found a script to put on the actual HTML page with <script> tags:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
disableSubmit(frm) {

But although this works, it does not execute my VB code in the code behind page so I am a little confused where to go here.
I am trying to make an application with a start button and a stop button on a stop watch program. These are the codes I am using but my seconds on the stop watch don't start.
Public Form Dim intSecond As Integer = 0
Form 1
Private
Dim intSecond As Integer = 0
intSecond +=1
[Code]...
After I write my code and try to run the program, the seconds will not start,
I am working on an app and I am a bit confused w/ threading. I understand the point of threading but I am not getting when to use a background worker thread vs. a standard thread vs. a thread pool. Can someone shed some light on when to use which? Right now, I am trying code an app that does stuff initially in a sequential order and then eventually must thread (otherwise it takes forever). The problem I am having w/ the sequential stuff (and threading later) is that I need a button to be able to stop execution of code. [Code]
I did the background worker on this first sequential operation because when I tried w/ out it, the text box didn't update at all until the web page contents were retrieved. Basically, the text box change of "Starting." doesn't show up until the web page is finished processing even though the assignment to the text box happens before that code.
Is there any way to stop the execution of the code that's under a button if for example a certain condition is met?
View 5 RepliesI am having a problem with my try catch block runs in the error "dastabase is not available". My problem is the try catch runs and catches the error, but it will not redirect to my error page. The code continues to execute the other subs. I have tried adding: exit, return, response.end. None of them worked.

Alright, so I'm still working on the slot machine. I have three timers all independently going for my three "wheels" of the slot machine.
My issue, is that I'm trying to make a Stop button to stop each timer one at a time, and I'm not understanding why this code isn't working. The logic completely makes sense, and the first "wheel" stops when I click the button, however, it doesnt appear to stop the other two timers.
CODE:
I have a simple application that use thread pool to read a file and input the data into a listbox. I want to be able to stop threadpool from running after clicking a stop button. How do I stop threadpool? Here is the code for my application below:

Private Delegate Sub StringDelegate(ByVal text As String)

I created a form and have the variable inputs for 4 motor run statements. Then with a start button the script starts and it is surrounded by a for next statement to loop 10 times. It works fine but if i need to stop the execution of the script with a stop button. I put the stop in a new section but of course does not work to do a motor stop. It just causes the exe to not respond till the loop is complete. Just need to be able to stop the Run1_Click button section.
Edit:I do not mind if it finishes the 4 motor run commands and then stops execution of the loop. So need to figure out a way to trigger a stop from a button on the form to stop the cycle. For the future the loop will be a variable integer input so 10 will not be the standard.
Edit::Does a ' Do ' statement sound like the thing to use? If so how and where would I place that? Have a Stop button on the form and it would stop after the 4th motor run command.

View 19 RepliesI have created a class, in which button control is created programatically. The click event is added using "Add Handler". Now I create an instance of this class whenever I want to create a new button. The problem with this design is that in the ButtonClickedevent I have to write swtich cases to provide different implementations as per requirementI don't want to perform this functionality in this class. Is there any way in which when I click on this button the method from other class gets executed? may be inheritance,

I'm having a really weird problem with my current project in Visual Basic 2005.To make a long story short, I have an EventHandler subroutine (Clock1_tick) which triggers on the Elapsed event of a Timer (Clock1). Some, but not all, of the code within the subroutine executes correctly. Some of it doesn't execute at all, even though the debugger shows that each line of code is being read.
The overall details of the program aren't really important, but within the program I have a VB class file which can be instanced via the "New" keyword and contains a series of functions, subroutines, and properties... a typical class file. The class file is for managing sound channels..The frmMain includes a status bar with a label to display the program's current status. It also includes a public sub which recieves a string and sets the text of the status bar:
I'm trying to replace text using this method:
Add each characted to a String list (List(Of String)), execute the replace function for every type of character (for example: Text = Text.Replace("A", "0AA") Text = Text.Replace("a", "1AB")), but there's a problem: it replaces the text, but it replaces those replaced characters too, so when I replace "A", it will result something like this: "0AAB AAA 0AB"... (a long text)), and then add the characters to the result string
how make the application stop and start the replacing of the next character

i seem to be having issues with my simple count down project. The count down work how I want it, there is also a pic of a rocket that move up when the count down button (Button4 - the form was set up in class as a quick example, so there was no need to name the buttons) is pressed. The problem is that the count down "10....1...Blast Off" shows after the rocket has moved up, I want the countdown text to show, then the rocket to move.The countdown is outputted to a ListBox.Here is my code thus far: (I have re-worked is a bit, starting to look messy)

View 4 RepliesIn my application, I have a call for an update to a table on my database. I know that it is executing because I get a 1 returned when checking the number of rows affected but when I look on the DB the value is not updated - I have refreshed and still no update. Here is the code, taskgrp_template is type bit and taskgrp_id is type integer. Id is also set to the correct value, as the result of my tracepoint - results listed below code.
mycmd.CommandText = "UPDATE p2_taskgroups SET TASKGRP_template = 1 WHERE TASKGRP_ID =" & id
rowsChecked = mycmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
Tracepoint result: the value of id is 55 and the value of templateCheck is 14 the number of rows affected was 1
When you click a button on my form, it opens a folder dialog box & gets the selected path, then changes a label's text to state that it's starting to process the directory then it goes ahead & opens a new streamwriter & continues on into my other sub for listing directories..roblem is the label isn't changing before it does it's processing, I figure that is because it's processing to fast to actually display the text. Even if processing the directory takes a minute or more the label won't ever change, which should have happened before it started processing the directory.

I have a form that you can type in a four digit code and press enter and will will run some code on a database. The problem occurs when a user click their 4 digit ID number and then click enter, the next user then comes up, types their 4 digit ID on the number pad and when they press enter it runs the code twice (this is due to the fact that the enter button has focus, meaning i intercept the enter, run my code, then the button runs that same code)
