Toggling Controls Settings & Values?
Sep 18, 2009
I have a series of check boxes and text boxes that are paired up together. 3 check boxes and three text boxes. Right now I have code in each of the Check boxes changed event as follows:
If UseSuffix_CheckBox.Checked = True Then
SuffixValue_TextBox.Enabled = True
SuffixValue_Label.Enabled = True
[Code]....
What I would like is to have one public routine (Function or Sub) that gets handed in the the control name/ref that just got clicked and then perform the functions listed in the above statement. Basically I want to have one routine that all the check box changed event points and acts on that check box and its paired text boxes and labels. I know it can be done just not sure how to pass the control that was clicked by the user to the sub.

I have a form that has to be on top for a period of time, and then can be set behind other windows normally. Is there anything in addition to setting Me.TopMost to True or False that needs to be done? I ask because it doesn't seem to be working.

I have a menu bar like this.I need to use them like radio buttons. So i have come up with this. Seems a nasty hack since it loops all my menu items. And if i later add different checks it would interfear.
vb
Private Sub mnuMainMenuToolBarComposeExistingThread_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _ Handles mnuMainMenuToolBarPrivateMessage.Click,

I have a form that has two views. These views are controlled by radio buttons on top of the form.
Here is the program:
Notice how the Radio button for Number Converter is selected.
Here is what it looks like when you select the Text Converter radio button:
That isn't right. I have it set to hide the panel containing the number converter and show the one containing the text converter when you click that one. It hides the number converter but doesn't show the text converter.
Here is a picture of the text converter panel:
Here is the relevant code:
Private Sub frmCalculator_Load(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
rdoNumberConverter.Checked = True
End Sub

I'm trying to create a DLL injector (merely for 3rd party option-toggling), but for some reason this code doesn't work.It will always return "Failed to create thread!"Here are the contents of the (Form1.vb)

I want to be able to control several groups of settings independently of each other. I'd originally used My.Settings, but it was too much work to manually rollback some settings whilst saving others.
I thought my solution was to use multiple settings files, and I've had moments where this seemed to work, but I whatever success I have had is periodic and temporary.
Currently I have two settings files in the root of the project; In code, I can access the settings OK, but in many cases I want to bind individual settings to controls. This should be straight-forward, and I recall it working when I used the single, built-in settings file.
However, when I use the two new settings files it doesn't work. In the Formatting & Advanced Binding dialog, I select Add New Project Data Source, I browse into my project, then into the root namespace, and then I see my forms/classes/settings files. When I select the two settings files, and click OK, the dialog is dismissed without me being able to select an individual setting to bind the control to.
When I enable Project > Show All Files, I can see that the binding has been created; I have two .datasource files under My Project > Datasources.
Is there some reason why I shouldn't be able to bind to these settings files? If not, why can I not access them the the data-binding dialogs?
Plan B is to create an object to act as an intermediary between the controls and the settings files, but I'd rather avoid this if I can.

A Windows service written in VB.NET is using the My.Settings namespace for simplicity. There are only three settings to read, and these are read within the constructor of the ServiceLauncher.
I am attempting to install the service as such:
installutil GID.ServiceLauncher.exe
And this is successful, however the config settings it is using are not the ones within the GID.ServiceLauncher.exe.config file, instead it is using the ones baked into the app as Default Settings within Settings.Designer.vb (marked with DefaultSettingValueAttribute). [The questionable wisdom of Microsoft not allowing a developer to ignore default settings is another question entirely].
How can I further diagnose this issue, and maybe force a reload of settings? I tried calling My.Settings.Default.Reload, however this did nothing. All settings are application settings, and only differ by "value" from those in the auto generated file.
I have successfully attached the debugger using System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Launch() and true enough, the settings are still the default settings.
In anticipation of the question, the background: The reason for requiring configuration settings is because this is a very straightforward service that simply executes an exe; and this exe is in configurable location. There are other reasons also, such as I wish to have the service name configurable without recompiling.

I would like to tweak some of the numbers in the app.exe.config file while the program is running. I would like my program to re-load those valued from the edited txt file.
I have tried my.settings.reset, reload, and upgrade. None of these seem to reload the values from the config file into the program
vs 2005
vb.net
How can i get my program to re-read the config file into its memory once it is up and running. say when a button is clicked?

I have an MDI form on which I have placed a ToolStripContainer. I have set the BackColor of the toolstripcontainer.contentpanel to an ApplicationsSettings property binding for BackColor. At design time the background colour of the contentpanel reflects the colour in the saved Applications Settings. However at run-time the background colour of the content panel is not the colour that has been saved in the applications settings (in this case DarkSeaGreen). It continues to display the colour from the current

I am creating an application for a company and this CD will be distributed to hundreds of people. Many users will have different computer screen size and different screen settings such as their resolution set to 1024 x 728 and their monitor size 17" inches.
I noticed when I loaded the application on a different computer with different settings the application was to big for the screen and did not work. I notice that lot of other programs from microsoft resize their controls and text but never knew how they did it. How can I resize the form and control according to the user's setting.

How do I reset My.Settings at run time to the initial default values. I want to do this after the app has been running and the user may have save changed settings. The intention is to reset evering to 'factory defaults' as opposed to the last saved value as done by 'settings.reload'.For example in the property below , I want to restore to the value to '90' as given in the default value. I want to do this for all settings.[code]...

I've bound a lot of controls on a form to a Entity. Some of them update fine, the others are just jumping back to their original value as soon as it loses focus.The old data are loaded in all controls perfectly.
Dim Q = From e In EnData.Calls Where e.CallID = ID
TempRow = Q.FirstOrDefault()
ticTemp1.DataBindings.Add("Value", TempRow, "CallDate")
ticTemp2.DataBindings.Add("Value", TempRow, "CustomerID")
How can this be fixed?

I have two datetimepicker controls on my form:
dtpPickup and dtpReturn
I need a way to ensure that the dtpReturn date selected is after the dtpPickup, and not before. How do I do that? And also, how do I get the values of the datetimepicker selected controls? Also, how can I set the values of the datetimepickers to these two private variables?
Private mdatStart As DateTime
Private mdatEnd As DateTime
It will not let me save them with the Sub for the date time pickers.

I want to check some values in a sql db without populating controls. I can select the row i want, but for some reason my mind then hits a blank, maybe its because its monday.I want to check a few bit fields in the row and if 1 - do something, if 0 do something else. In this case depending on which bit fields are set to what, id like to enable/disable various controls on my form.
Heres the code i got so far, but as i said then i drew a blank, and i may be going about this completely wrong:Dim SQLcon As New SqlConnection("server=DEVSERVERDEVSQL;" & _
"integrated security=sspi;database=WDA_SQL")
Dim SQLqry As New SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM Users WHERE (Username = @Username) AND (Password = @Password)", SQLcon)
SQLqry.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Username", UsernameTSlbl.Text)

In vb.net I would like to set all numericUpDown (NUD) controls to select their value when they receive focus, like a text box does. Do I need to write a GotFocus handler for each NUD? I know I can use widthBox.Select(0, widthBox.ToString().Length) to do the selection I just need to be able to apply this to all NUD GotFocus events.

I have a WPF application that allows users to create questions of all different types which depending on the type will use a textbox,combobox,checkboxes, or radio buttons to allow the user to answer the question after they build some sort of questionnaire. My question is what is the best way to keep track of the answers across all the different controls after the controls are created and the questionnaire is created on the fly. Right now, i'm looping through all the containers and getting the values based on the controlType.

I'd like to see how others might handle this scenario and perhaps provide some comments on this particular solution for handling null values. I have run into a situation where my application requires data from an ancillary source that cannot be altered/changed, which of course means dealing with poor database architecture and implementation! In this case, my app is running into errors when attempting to set some form controls (textbox) to values from a single ADO.NET DataRow. Perhaps I should be handling this when attempting to set the controls? Not sure, but here is the current way this is done:

I have a vb.net 2010 form with 22 data bound controls from two tables held in a dataset which is navigated by a bindingnavigator. This successfully adds deletes and updates. However what I need is when adding a new record I need some of the fields to be pre filled out. More specifically I have points balance fields etc which could be any value but will normally be 0 on a new customer so I want to initialize them to 0 when adding new records.

I have an asp.net web forms application. In this application, students upload assignments and submit a survey along with it. For the survey, I read values from DB and dynamically generate ASP.NET Controls like radiobuttonlist, checkboxlist, textbox on the form during gridview's RowDataBound Event. I cannot do it in Page_Init method because I create only if a user click on a specific assignment which requires a survey to be submitted.
When I submit the survey form, the survey values are not saved into database. During debugging I figured it out that the values are not available in the codebehind page. The radiobuttonlist.selectedvalue returns and I get following error[code]....
