I am an engineer programming in VB2010 Professional. I am trying to format a chart in Excel from VB, I looked at the following link. I wish there was actual complete code along with the structure.
I am using VS 2010, VB.NET and when I drag a chart object to my form from the toolbox, no wizard appears. Do I need to enable wizards in VS 2010? or is there another reason the wizard doesn't automatically appear?
I have a chart in Excel that I'd like to use a subtitle on. There is no SubTitle Property on the chart object, so I looked in the Excel User interface and found that you can only create a sub-title by using a text box. The text box looks like its associated with the chart, not the worksheet, so how would I access that text box from code?
My requirement is to graph (scatter graph) data from 2 arrays. I can now connect the data from the array and use it on the chart. My question is, how do I set the graph's X- and Y- axes to show consistency in their intervals?
How do I dynamically add or remove a chart series on a WinForm. To date all my MS Charting experience has been dealing with ASP.Net charts with static sql select statment to a SQL Database. In the new project that I have been assigned I have different cities with different amounts of points that they want monitored. One city might have 3 an another might have 5 or 7 so I can't hard code the amount of series that I need. It needs to be set up so the amount of series can be flexible depending on the city selected and then display those points on the chart.
I am using microsoft chart controls in VB.net. The graph data currently comes from my database, but all the series and chart formats were made before runtime. I want to know how to make charts on runtime, being able to select the x axis from my dataset and multiple y columns from my dataset.
I can not figure out how to get the chart to display the labels. When I try and add labels, the lines get messed up. Also, if I try and do multiple lines it does not always work out very well. I tried different ColumnLabels and they behave very strange as well. What I want is to be able to have several lines. Each with their own label. And also, I want to specify text for each point at the very bottom of the graph. Let me know what suggestions you have. [Code]
i wish to create line chart, pie chart and bar chart using vb.net of visual studio 2005.Second question is i wish to copy a few data into datagridview from microsoft office tools such as access or excel using shortcut key 'ctrl+C' and 'ctrl+V'.code to do the 2 functions above without installing additional tools?
I'm having problem with MS Chart chart type column. If there are only 9 bar in the chart like the following picture, then the axis-x label show up properly.
However, there are more than 9 bars bar the chart, the axis-x label wont show up properly, some of them just dissappear.
I don't know it works with only 9 bars? Is there any way to make the chart work properly? Also, if possible, how to make each bar have different color.
I have the smallest dataset in the world that simply consists of a month (text) and and amount. I want to produce a chart showing the month along the y-axis and the value up the x-axis. How do I do it? I have dragged the chart control onto the report page and populated the dataset. The chart shows but nothing like what I would expect. Just to make it simple I populated the dataset with an amount equivalent to the month number so it should show as 1 in January, 2 in Feb etc...However no matter where I drag the dataset's column names I don't get what I want. Where am I going wrong?
I use this simple loop to populate the dataset:
dsSales.Tables("Sales").Clear()
For i As Integer = 1 To 12 dsSales.Tables("Sales").Rows.Add(MonthName(i), i) Next
I can't figure out how to plot anything on this chart...finally got it to actually display a pie chart, now I'm trying to somehow bind a data source to it and from there, select the series data..I have added the database to the project as a data source but I don't know how to bind it to the pie chart. some other info: this db has 100's of tables and the program I'm working on is going to be a "status monitor" of sorts that will contain about 6-8 different types of charts all plotting different info for me in chart form.I want to bind this one data source to all the charts and just have them display different information (based on the sql query perhaps)
And can I integrate a SQL database to store the data the users enter? It will be for automatic account creation. And I only want them to enter data once, and then I want to retrieve it for every signup.
I've noticed that in VS 2005, there were plenty of new, great features, with good fixes and just a better overall system. However, it does not seem to have a very good setup wizard. You have less control over setup, and the wizard won't let me copy some files that my program needs with it.Is there a way to get a better setup wizard, or will I have to make my own? Also, how do you make a custom MSI?
I am trying to accomplish an Aero Wizard in VB.Net, shown here: Features in need include: Extended glass frameGlowing textRemoving original caption bar title and iconBack button
Actually, I am just a beginner of VB. but I have written other languages like C , C# so I understand the basic knowledge of VB.
Now when I read one book, I found one page telling about VB application wizard which is easier to place bars... but as i am using Visual Studio 2010 for VB, I can't find its icon when creating new project.
I have created an SQL Server 2012 database using the Server Managment studio and I want to connect to in in VB2010. When I run the connection wizard and locate the .mdf file it always tells me that the file is in use and to close any programs that have it open.
However VB is the only program I have open so I am not sure why it is telling me this order how to overcome it.I have tried creating a different database the same way to see if that help but it doesnt.
Is there something I might be missing in the creation of my SQL db that might be causing it?
When I add a datasource via the wizard the connection string is either writen directly in the dataset.designer or there is a reference to the projects settings. Either way I am figuring out if I could change it dynamicaly when my app starts up ?
I am new to VS and evaluating VS 2010. I am trying to create a wizard type control, on which various controls are on each tab. I then want to turn off the tab description and outline and control which tab controls are displayed by programmatically selecting each or one specific tab. Also require to be able to place a control above a tab (not on any of the tabs, which will mean that the control is visible whenever the form is displayed
I am trying to duplicate the characteristics of the Clarion (Soft Velocity) language tab control.
I have noticed that the tab control does have a "visible" attribute and if turned off that none of the tabs are visible. I guess what I need is a "visible" attribute (most probably inhereted from the parent tab control ) which can be programmatically changed.
I know that VS 2003, 2005 and 2008 had the VB6 to VB.NET Upgrade Wizard. Now, on a email list I'm on a said that he cannot open a .vbp file to use the upgrade wizard in VB 2010. Is there no Upgrade Wizard in VB 2010?
I'm wanting to burn the contents of a folder to CD from within a VB.net project.After a few hours of research it doesn't appear as simple as I thought it would.Is it possible to control the native CD writing wizard on XPWin7?All I need to do is add the folder, give the CD a name and start the burn - the Wizard would be ideal and save hours of coding.
I created a report using the report wizard in visual studio 2008. I put this line in my form_load event:[code...]
But when I debug my application the report that I created is not copied to the debug folder, so it can't find it. Does anyone know a solution for this?
