I am currently have two independent VB programs running. How is the easiest way of passing messes from one programme to another.
I am unsure, but I assume that you have to use some memory addressing of some kind but I am unsure if this is the correct approach ?
I have been converting my VB6 programmes to VB 2008. many of the problems that came up I have been able to solve; mostly by trial and error. However, I have one problem that was easy to handle in VB6, but I don�t see how to do it in VB 2008. I have checked Google, but didn�t find anything exactly similar to what I want to do.
On my form in VB6 I added two text boxes, each with it�s own name. I then copied these two and pasted them back onto the form, under the original textboxes, 5 times. Each time I was asked whether I was creating an array; I confirmed that I was.
I could then code as follows:
For x = 1 To 6
BidderName(x) = txtBidderName(x)
BidderCommunity(x) = txtBidderCommunity(x)
[Code]....
I tried to do the same thing on my VB 2008 form, but it does not ask whether I was creating an array, and in fact the array of textboxes on the form, is not an array!
how I get around this. The form has to show an array of textboxes, which are entered in order.
how do vb.net programmes execute ?

I created a telephone number form where the user enters the telephone number in a text box as (nnn) nnn-nnnn. The first 3 digits in parenthesis are the ISD code, the next three are the area code and the last four are the local number. I need to separate out these three fields of the phone number and display in three separate text boxes labeled appropriately. Now, suppose the user enters the phone number in a text box as a continuous string of 10 digits, where the first three represent the ISD code, the next three represent the area code and the last four represent the local number. I'm lost as how to change this string into the form (nnn) nnn-nnnn. This is what I have

I have a TabControl object on my form with many tabs created in code (TabPages) and my problem is that the same objects that are in the initial TabPage needs to be in the other TabPages created in code, I have this done in code when the user clicks the 'New Tab' menu option, however the same code is used for any new tabs created. The problem created here is that I have an event against one of the objects that appear in the other TabPages, but because the same code is used to create any new tab pages, the event will only work on the newest tab page, if that makes sense? By the way these objects that appear on the other TabPages are properties at the top so events can be handled against them in the respective subroutine.

I'll get straight to my problem - I'm currently coding in Visual Studio.I have a table (countries) with the columns ID | Name. The table is filled with around 28 records.I also have a form with 4 combo boxes (set up as 1,2,3 & 4) that I want the user to select. These combo boxes will display the names from the table countries. I then want to use the selected names in the combo boxes to Insert into their corresponding ID into another table. For example England would have the ID 1, USA the ID 2 etc.So, is it possible to have separate combo boxes that will give separate ID values but using the same table? At the moment I can't seem to find a solution.Eventually the form will have more than 4 combo boxes so I don't want to use separate bindingsources for each combo box.

There are two forms. For the form1, the view is 1 textbox and the button. For the button in the form1, when it is click, it will go to the form2 which consists of the datagridview. After select the numbers from the datagridview, it will go back to form1 and display it in the form1 textbox. But I want to separate it with a comma. Here is the code in form2: Private Sub btnAdd_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnAdd.Click

View 6 RepliesDataGridView, add unique gradient to each Row I like to add a gradient brush to each row of my datagridview. I like to change the gradient colors for each row independently depending of some cell values in the row. I know how to add a solid background color to each, cell, row, column etc. but I do not know how to add a gradient brush to each row individualy.
I need to fill the datagridview with values, the datagridview is disconnected from any database or other data source. After filling the datagridview, I want to step trough each row, find my key values, decide the gradient colors and then add the gradient to the row.I like to do something similar to what I now do with a background color:

I've experimented a bit with async TCP socket messages between two programs, for passing data, numbers and/or text. What I've done is to use a keyword in the start of each message,and then seperate the values with the "|" character. So a message may look like this: "DATA|490|40517.9328222222|1|6|11345|11347|11344|11345|106|40517.8494212963"I set the read buffer size to 1024, as most of the messages will be within that lengthHowever sometimes I may send rapidly many short messages where several together are less than 1024 characters, and it seems then it will be read in one go. And if I send a message longer than 1024 characters, it will be split. So I'm looking for some advice on how to handle this. Should I use some special characters to start and/or end each message?

Module:
Code:
Module mdlStartup
Public Sub Main()

The NotifyIcon control is in my frmMain. However, when I run my program I get mulitple instances of the Notify Icon being displayed. I even get two frmMains getting launched if I try clicking the other tray icon that has been made. I'm guessing this has to do with the New instance.If that's the problem, is there a way I can move the notifyicon control to some completely separate class?
Is there a way I can run a loop in a seperate thread and increment a progress bar each time the loop iterates? I am trying to run a loop that will take a long time to complete and I dont want the form to be completely crashed out while the loop is running. There are only two ways I can think to solve the problem. The first way is to run the loop on a timer. This is extremely slow. The other way is to use a thread.
View 1 RepliesI just finished up my space invaders movement and with all the other timers running it really bogs it down. So I think the best solution would be to make the timers run on separate threads. I know roughly how to do this from a old example I read a long time ago. So I just need a simple sample code to refresh my memory please. Maybe something with message boxes or something to demonstrate the process.
