there I am using a ToolTip on a Label that I am using as a place holder, so the same Label is being recreated over and over in diferent locations each time the ToolTip Message is diferent. The problem is the mesages is all showing ap at the same time overlaping one another.

I can't claim credit for this code but I think it's cool. It will show the entire contents of an item in a tooltip even when the columns are truncating it. Drop a tooltip and listview container on your form with the default name.

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
ListView1.Clear()

I can finally filter my DataGridView every time a checkbox is checked or unchecked. However, I do not need it to filter out all of the messages each time a row is added, so I just need to check the current message. The following sub's demonstrate how I am doing this.
Public Sub FilterAllMessages()
'Show all rows
For Each showBand As DataGridViewBand In MessagesDataGridView.Rows
If showBand.Visible = False Then showBand.Visible = True
Next
[Code] .....
Great, they both work as intended...but I believe I am losing out on efficiency with the way I have this. I have tried adding another public sub CheckMessage() to run through the row, pretty much doing what each long list of If/ElseIf checks does.
IN the FilterLastMessage() I just call CheckMessage(), and in the FilterAllMessages() I call it like this:
For Each band As DataGridViewBand In MessagesDataGridView.Rows
CheckMessage()
Next
This isn't working as it is unable to get the index for each message when I have it FilterAllMessages(). I'm just wondering about making the 2 sub's above more efficient so I can have it CheckMessage() just once, instead of it doing basically the same thing twice. Also, the messages all go on to a DataGridView, and this will be constantly writing messages to the window. After a while I would imagine that this will bog down the program, so I am wanting to keep the number of messages that are displayed < 2000. How is the most efficient way to achieve this?
I have been working with the Outlook object library for 2007 and have been able to list all email in the Inbox. I can do the same with the Sent box but I do not see how to get the time it was sent. I have ReceivedTime for the In box but what about the Sent time?
View 1 RepliesI have the code below which works fine, however, if a mandatory field is not populated it prompts a message box, what I want to do is display ONLY one message box and show all the messages at one go, instead of one at a time. Also, I want the cursor to be prompting to the next mandatory field to be inserted according to the list.

I made this splash screen and since I just started working on my project, the app takes less than two seconds to load and the time for splash screen is not enough? I have tried to put System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000)but where? I put it in the code of the splash screen, then it waits 5 seconds before showing the splashscreen and I put it in the main program, then the splash screen is out THEN it waits 5 seconds after the splash screen is gone then it loads.

How do I show a continuous time stamp on a label in windows form.
I am using vs.2005 - vb language
I want to be able to show a different usercontrol in a single container depending on a criteria, something like
Quote:
if a = 1 then
show usercontrol1
else if a = 2 then
show usercontrol2
etc
I could add all of them at a time and just tweak their visibility per each case but is that the best method for such task?

I have a VB (.NET3.5) project like this:
- form1: IsMDIForm = true.
- form2: adding a list view with 2 records, select first record, and register the event ItemSelectionChanged.
- Add form2 as a child of form1 (form2.MDIParent = form1).
- When use "form2.Show()" -> the event ItemSelectionChanged firing three time:
+ 1st: SelectedItem = 1
+ 2nd: SelectedItem = 0
+ 3rd: SelectedItem = 1
I want to know the rootcause (not Solution) of thi issue, can anyone help me !?

I have an Application that has a tab control on it. Depending what the end user clicks on, a new tab is created dynamically at runtime and I use a Template class to fill it with controls of what is needed for the type of tab being created. All works fine but where I have an issue is with the dynamic tooltip control. I added a tooltip to the main form and added code to access it in the Template Class. But I feel I have to rig it to get it to work and am looking for a more proper way to do it. I access the Tooltip1 on Form1 via Form1.components. However, "Components" in the Form1 designer code is declared Private and I change it to Public and it works fine but of course as I know when I make changes to the Design of Form1 it recreates the code and Chages the Componets back to Private. So I need a better way to access it or a better way to create Tooltips dynamically.
Code:
'---CreateTab Class--- a portion of code for example
CreateTab(ByRef tpNew As TabPage)
Dim btnSelect = New System.Windows.Forms.Button

View 2 RepliesI am developing an application in vb.net 2008 express edition that displays utility meter information. In one column of datagridview it shows the meter type in numeric code. When the user hovers over the the individual cells in meter type column i want to be able to show more descriptive info on what that numeric code actually means.
As an example the cell in datagridview will show 1254 the actual description for this numeric code is "Landis Gyr Focus AX SD 2S 7.2Kh"

I have a label with a tooltip attribute for rollover effect. This works all great. However, it seems to get hidden behind any dropdown lists that are nearby. I have tried adjusting the z-index, without any luck. This issue does not appear in firefox, and I have not tested it in later versions of IE.
I realize this is probably due to IE6s poor css standards-compatibility, but how can I get around this?
All the tooltips in one of my apps stopped working. I checked the component; the settings are all the same as on another app that still works. what would cause tooltips to suddenly turn off?
View 9 RepliesIs it possible to make tooltips invisible in VB.NET 2005? The reason that I ask is because I need to store some data about each node in a treeview control, but I am already using the node's tag value to store an object that represents a "SuperToolTip" which is a control in DevComponent's DotNetBar utility. So I do not want the tooltip to be visible, since I am already displaying a more feature rich tooltip for each node. I guess I could store an array in the tag, that would contain the object that I needed, as well as the string info I need for the node as well.
View 5 RepliesI've just set up Visual studio 2003 on a new machine, and I'm not getting the tooltips appearing when I hover over variables in debug mode.Strangely enough, I've also just installed VB6 on the same machine, and I'm getting the same problem on there.
View 1 RepliesI have a combobox with a given width.
It may occur that one row of the data is partially hidden (the combobox might be too narrow). I'd like to show the whole line by using a tooltip or right-click context menu.
Currently I can't find how to 'catch' the row that I'm currently holding on or passing over by mouse.
I cannot seem to figure out how to use a large icon (I'm assuming 64x64) in balloon tooltips, like when installing new hardware device drivers. I already have the icon resource added, and when I have it coded:
Me.afkNotifyIcon.BalloonTipIcon = AFK_Timer.My.Resources.clock_balloonicon
I get the error: "Value of type 'System.Drawing.Icon' cannot be converted to 'System.Windows.Forms.ToolTipIcon'."
I'm going through my company's program making sure that all icons have tooltips. We have a lot of grids with icons, but in case the settings for the tooltip to show up are not there, the column header should have the same tooltip as the icon. In regular grids I just click the column header, and then the properties for it show up in the bottom right corner in Visual Studio. However, we have some treeviews, and when I click on the column header of a column in the treeview, Tooltip is not among the properties I can edit. How to make a tooltip show up on such a column header?
