UICulture Change Functionality - Form Control Names Not Returning Properly
Jun 12, 2011
I am trying some Uiculture change functionality. In that I need the name and text of controls in a form to change the culture. I got some Demo project and it is in C#. I tried to make the same functionality with the C#.net and Also using VB.net. But the below mentioned code returns control name with an underscore as prefix. But I don't want underscore. Code is actually written in Class library. It works perfectly in C#.
Code is written below
Dim fields As FieldInfo() = form.[GetType]().GetFields(BindingFlags.Instance Or BindingFlags.DeclaredOnly Or BindingFlags.NonPublic)

I've created the beginnings of my new web application, but I am often coming up against the issue that ASP.NET renames elements IDs or in the case of form fields, their names.I have a form which is basically a sales system. It is essentially made up of two User Controls, one is a form for Customer Details (name, address etc) and the second is a form for the customer's purchases, it consists of a number lines dynamically created by Javascript created as you list the items the customer is purchasing. Both these sections are User Controls because they are to be used for other areas of the system where this data will need to be recalled/re-entered.When the USer Control is loaded, the field which contains the Customers' Name is renamed "m$mainContent$customerForm$name" I understand where this comes from, "m" is the ID of my Master Page, "mainContent" is the main Content Placeholder and "customerForm" is the name of the User Control.
In fact, in my case, this will always remain the same on all forms, so it is relative easy to overcome... but... suppose it wasn'tI can see there are ways I could deal with this with Javascript, but the form doesn't need an AJAX submit, a normal Post will do fine for this, so when I open up the recieving page I want to call Request.Form("name")% to save the customer's name into the database, but of course I really need Request.Form("m$mainContent$customerForm $name")%How would I dynamically extract those prefixes from the posting form to ensure that if I rename anything or use it in a different scenario, the problem will not break it?I am using .NET 2.0, so can't use Static Client.

I have created a calendar in VB which works fine when set to the startup form, but when I use the MdiParent form as the startup form and try to display the calendar by use of a control it just shows all the buttons and labels with no values assigned to them. Its almost as if the Calendar_Load event is not working, or not accessing the methods in my CalendarClass.
Is there any way to get common control names like Save, Copy or Undo Redo in the user's windows language? (I saw this in some programs which weren't made for my windows language. Also the Yes No Massage Boxes will change...)
I have a DataGridView which populates from an SQL query just fine in default mode
using these table names [firstName] [varchar](20) NOT NULL, [lastName] [varchar](20) NOT NULL,
[code]....
I have edited the column headers and set the column names to the same values as my table names yet the data is not showing in form load I have set datagridview.AutoGenerateColumns = False I know the data is there if I delete datagridview.AutoGenerateColumns = False then the data is shown with the default headings?
I made project using VB.Net 2005 with multi languages, the first form is MDIParent form with MainMenu and toolbars also there is some changes in properties as righttoleft and text of forms.In my Mainmenu (Menustrip) there is opetion to change the UI Culture and I have already done but I need to change all texts in the form as mainmenu items anf form properties.My quetion is: how can I reload my form again to read the new texts names and mainmenu items names from resx file?
I'm getting familiar now with using the Dataset Designer and how it makes for quick and easy updates and query of tables. I use to use the OleDB commands and leave the Connection String as a Global Constant so I can easily change it if the server name changes, or if we have to re-direct the .NET to another instance of the database.
But now that I use the Dataset designer I'm concerned that I maintain flexibility and support in the long run. how the Dataset designer works and where it stores it's connection string info? And how difficult that would be to update. It looks like I modify the App.config file, but I'm unfamiliar with this.
What am I getting myself into? It looks like a standard XML file. Is that it?
I need to extend the functionality of the ToolTip control...Problem: I need to show some introductionary instructions to my users the first time they see a new form based feature in my app. Something along the lines of: '...Welcome to the blah, blah, blah feature. To do this, click that, mouse here, press that so on and so forth...'
Then I want a 'Don't show this again' check box somewhere near the bottom so the 'welcome screen' can be supressed. Currently I'm thinking of loading an app wide form (Public Dim frmMyToolTip as frmToolTip) and using it's .TopMost property to ensure that when I show it, it appears over my modal form (I can Hide/Show at will.) Also without a caption or border, my users can't move it.
As it will be displayed on top of a Modal form, I need a Background worker component to run a timer which will hide the form after a set period. I can store the state of the CheckBox to stop the form from showing next time if user does not require it.
Alright, I have a vb6 LEGACY application and new Functionality (Form) written in c#. I have a VB.NET COM Class as a wrapper. I can launch the .NET Form just fine. THe problem I am having is closing the .net form from vb6.
Example:
In VB6, I have something like this:
CODE:
But it does not work becuase frmViewer is Nothing for some reason. how I should close the .NET form that was launched from VB6?
I'm trying to find a way to reproduce the FolderBrowserDialog control functionality but not in a dialog. I'm been looking around for a good part of today for solutions but with very little progress. I found a few writeups on listing folders and their contents in a treeView but nothing about listing everything including "My Computer", "Desktop", etc. This seems like something that would've been built right in to Visual Studio. I'm working with VS 2005.
I want to create a User-Control that inherits the functionality of a TabContol.
I begin by starting a new project of the type Windows Form Control Library. Next I place a TabControl on the UserControl designer surface and Dock the TabContol to Fill the UserControl.
I go to the code editor for the UserControl and enter the following line of code.
Inherits System.Windows.Form.TabControl
Then I run the program and get an error. Intellisence recommends that I use one of two recomendation. When I accept the recommendation I and try to run the program the problems esculate.
The design-surface is no longer accessable.
I try to comment out the problem lines of code in the UserControl1.Designer.VB file but that doesn't help.
How can I create a UserControl that Inherits the Properties of the TabControl so that the properties of the TabControl are visable in the Properties Window?
this is vb.net 2005, I have some issues I believe with time format.everytime when I try to change datetime on my local PC, I got 9/11/2009 8:00PM Here is my
Private Declare Function SetLocalTime Lib "kernel32" (ByRef lpSystemTime As SYSTEMTIME) As UInt32 Structure SYSTEMTIME Public wYear As UInt16 Public wMonth As UInt16 Public wDayOfWeek As UInt16
[code].....
is it any trouble if I try to apply that date on some other machine, like any built in additional timer within Windows XP?
I have a form with a tab control on it. I would like to be able to rotate backgrounds, from the code.I'd especially like to be able to change just one tab on the tab control. I know how to do this in the IDE, of course.)
I have created a user control with some properties but when I change them in a form and build the return to the default value, Here is the code I did: Public Property ButtonFind As Boolean Get Return CmdFind.Visible End Get Set(ByVal value As Boolean) CmdFind.Visible = value End Set End Property
I have created a custom control that is included in a control library that is referenced by a VB Forms application.
When I modify the control, and have the application open in a VS window, VS usually asks me if I want to reload items that have changed.
However, a couple of times, it has not asked me this, and when I go to open the form that contains the modified control, I get an error window warning me that if I ignore the error message and continue, then I risk making VS unstable. I've learned to ignore this error message, continue, and immediately save the form to a new file.
[URL]. Attached is a MEF WPF and WinForms project that I have been playing around with. I was able to add two 'plug-in' buttons to the form but how do I provide functionality to the buttons? How can I add objects from a separate assembly, like most plug-ins do? Let's say I want to break out each menu (File, Edit, View, Tools) into their own assemblies, leaving the main application window as a blank form that will import each assembly on startup. Also, could functionality from the Edit menu assembly interact with the code from the File menu assembly? I have also not created custom user controls before so as you can see I am having trouble creating a plug-in menu structure.
I have been building a Web Application (ASP.NET, .NET Framework 4, VB, visual studio 2010). To be very brief the application interacts with a database and performs several actions (Insert Delete Select etc..).I am using several Gridviews, ListBoxes etc and I am not happy with the presentation outcome and the functionality provided by asp.net. In simple words my application looks bad, outdated and unprofessional.I figured that using Windows Forms that will be incorporated to the ASP ap.I have created a Windows Form Control Library to use the dll created in my app as a user control. I found out that this is not supported in .NET Framework 4 (is this true? or am i doing something wrong?). Is there any way to make my application have the 'look and feel' of a windows application? Please note that it is has to be a web app and the clients should not have to download any other application to interact with the server.
Just wondering if anyone has tried the following link which is very interesting and shows integration of spell check functionality in a Textbox or a RichTextBox without the use of ms word spell checking capabilities. I have created a project in vb.net and wanted to integrate the same functionality in my RichTextBox. But sadly this project is in C#. how to convert this project into Vb.net. Download the SpellCheck Application from this link [url]
I am here with the same Query but with a different look I want to apply the culture change to my program. I created a class library for culture change. and applied it . It is only working with the form name, i did it with two different languages and got the result. But the controls inside the form remains as it is.
I've got a richtextbox control on a form and a menustripitem that allows me to change the font style. What I want to be able to do is to allow the user to type text into the richtextbox control; then if they change the font style using the menu only for newly entered text to change font, and any previously typed text to stay in the previously selected font. The problem I'm getting is that all of the entered text's font style is changed.
I need to be able to change my form's opacity without changing the opacity of the components.
I really only need to do this on one form in my entire app, so this is getting a little frustrating
I've been researching for about half an hour now, trying to figure out if it's possible, but I'm coming up short.
I've seen some WPF examples and if it really comes to that, I'm more than willing to change the app from a WinForms app to a WPF app. I've made a WPF app before, so I'm familiar with it. But, I don't want to have to remake my entire project for this one form.
On that note, does anyone know if I can make a WPF form how I need it and just import it into a WinForm app? It doesn't seem possible, but it's better to ask than not. I'll look into this more.
I've done some searching on these forums as well as on the Web in general, and while I've found some posts about the error above, I haven't seen anything specific to what I'm experiencing
I want to resize font of all windows form control when i change screen resolution..I am able to resize all the controls but font resize driving me nuts..
I'm developing a Windows form. It contains textboxes, checkboxes and so on. When I move these controls (e.g. cut & paste from one frame to another in the same form), their names do not change (and it's good of course) but their function and event names are changed. Why it happens? How to avoid it? It causes me to move all functions from the old control to the new one. It's a lot of work and very annoying.
I got this timer tick function: Private Sub controlTick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Label2.Text = (Control.ModifierKeys = Keys.Control) End Sub
That is supposed to make my label say "True" if I am currently holding down the Control key, and "False" if I am not.But, how come my label is always "False"? What is interesting is that if I press the Control key at lighting speed a bunch of times I can see for a fraction of a second "True", but immediately turns to "False".
