I was just wondering if it is possible to put a dll file into the resources and use it as a import on that same program? So that I wouldn't need all my users to have both the dll and the .exe. since they would be combined into one.

View 5 RepliesWhat I'm wanting to do is gonna sound pretty strange. I play a game called Wonderland Online. Usually while playing, I will have between 3-4 instances of the game going at the same time, each instance running a different character. Also, I will have open another program that I wrote that helps me figure out what I need to manufacture a certain item in the game. The running game is an 800x600 window, and I have all 5 of these windows open at once, where I am constantly moving things around, minimizing and maximizing.I want to create a app that would basically be a frame for the game. Creating the frame would not be hard, but this is the first time I have tried to get an external EXE to basically run inside of my program. Is this even possible? And if so, I would imagine I could run multiple EXEs and flip between them inside my frame. I could integrate my manufacturing program into the frame, as well as control which instance of the game is visible inside the frame.
View 1 RepliesI am not really sure how to ask this question. I have been teaching myself vb for about 3 months. The book I am using is pretty good about explaining things and what I can't figure out I can find different examples on the web. I can't find out how to access windows control panels from my app. For example if I type firewall.cpl at the run line it will launch the windows firewall.

View 7 RepliesCan you add values inside textboxes that are located in tables in Visual Basic 2008?
I put a TableLayoutPanel on a form and inside the Table I put textboxes. Outside the table there is a button. The whole point of the program is so that the user inputs numerical values inside the textboxes and then hits the button and the answer comes out in another textbox. But its not working. It worked when I didn't put my textboxes inside the TableLayoutPanel.[code]...

May i know how to insert a AT command method inside my program to receive incoming sms?
My program is in visual basic windows form 2005.
Here is how my program goes.
After i click connect button in my application, the gsm modem will automatically read the incoming sms and display in the textbox on the program.
I already have the list of AT commands to be used, they are :
1. AT
2.AT+CMGF=1
3.AT+CMGL="ALL"
I also would like to know how to declare these commands as string inside the program.
Here is my program so far:
CODE;
This code is for the user to click on connect button which will connect to the serial port. So after connecting the modem will then auto read and display new incoming sms.
I'm looking for a solution for making the program response to the enter/return key inside a textbox. After browsing the forum I end up with this
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPress(ByVal Keyasii As Integer)
If Keyasii = 13 Then
Label1.Text = TextBox1.Text
End If
End Sub
As this seems to be the answer to the problem, I still can't make it work. I just get a 'beep' and nothing happens.

I am in process of writing a setup program that will reside in a USB stick.After inserting the Stick the VB2008E program starts (dont know how) and guides the technician to do certain tasks. As a part of this She/He needs to run a Setup.exe that resides in the same USB stick.
1- How do I define the drive letter of this USB stick.
2- How do I run the x:Setup.exe program without exiting the VB2008? The install process should begin after click of a button.
3- Would Autorun work on USB drives to run the program automaticaly?

Seems repititous having to declare the variables in every event handler. [code]

I have a Tabcontrol, and when the program loads it adds a tab. Inside this tab goes a panel (url, back, etc buttons to be added to it) and a webbrowser control.Problem is the panel docks to the top and when you fill the webrowser control the webbrowser goes behind the panel and not under it so the top is cut off.[code]Or anyone know how to remove the tabcontrol from the tabpages so theres a gap in-between to input this panel.
