VB Put Close Button Next To Tab Text?
Jul 12, 2009
I've spent awhile building a notepad like program using tabs and automatically putting a richtextbox into each new tab when created. Then I wrote a script to close the currently open tab but I want to go further, I want each tab, when created, to draw/have a small "X" on the right hand side of the text. I don't know if I'll have to draw it or if I can do something else, but here is the code I'm using to create the new tab
Dim Newbox As New RichTextBox
Dim NewTab As New TabPage
Newbox.Tag = NewTab
NewTab.Tag = Newbox
TabControl.TabPages.Add(NewTab)
[Code]...

I'm currently in the process of building a text editor type program, and have run into a brick wall. I haven't done VB in years, so I may just need a little reminder on some things. I have coded everything so far as far as opening files, saving them, changing fonts, colors, etc. However, I'm looking to add a Close button to my menu strip that will just close the currently opened file, and not the entire program, while also ask the user if he/she would like to save before closing the file, and then if they select yes, it will show the save dialog, and if not, it will go ahead and close the currently opened item.

I have a form containing a date textbox and a submit button and a close window button. The date textbox onblur calls a javascript function which checks for date validation and some other logic and displays some alert messages. The date on the textbox is always selected and onfocus. My problem is when I try to click the close window button with/without changing the date the alert messages from the onblur logic are displaying and I am unable to close the window. I tried using onchange instead of onblur but onchange too works when a control looses focus. it works fine when I donot change the date but when I change the date and hit the close window button it too displays the alert messages and the window does not close. Please suggest me what will be my best option.

I have a GDI+ question using Aeonhack's themebase. I'm using Aeonhack's themebase in VB.NET to make my first theme. I want to make the theme so that there is an X (close) button at the top right corner built into the theme. I'm doing so like this: [Code] And when I run it, it works fine. However, when I run it with that code, my buttons "disappear" or rather, turn that blank color you get as the control background for a forms application. How can I keep my buttons from doing this?

How am I going to remove the close button? No, the whole title bar. I can get rid of minimize and maximize button in the properties but not the close button.
I know about this one but I am not planning to use this. It's just disabling the close button not getting rid of it:|
Private Sub frmOpt_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
e.Cancel = True
End Sub

I dynamically create buttons on a form and use the button text as ids so that I can pass that to an SQL query to pull saved data about that button when necessary, but I also use an image over buttons that have information saved about them. What I need to know is how do I keep the text on the button from appearing when there is an image assigned to that button? By default vb.net shows both the text and the image and no TextImageRelation values allow for the image to take precedence. I tried changing the text color to transparent, but the outline of the text is still visible through the image. Is there anyway to keep the text value as it is but just show the image on the button?

below an image:

I use a simple context menu to navigate from one window to another in a mdi application.
The context menu is populated and refreshed every time, if the user closes a window or open a new.
I would like to add a close "X" button too to each context menu element.
How is it possible? I have a small "X" button gif. Can I use this?
I think, I should ovveride the onpaint event of the context menu and put this image on the right corner, right?

I am attempting to disable the close button "X" in the controlbox of a form and keep the maximize and minimize buttons. There does not appear to be a way to accomplish this with conventional VB code or using the Form's Properties.
So I ventured into the realm of API's.
I declared the following API Calls and Constants:
Declare Function GetSystemMenu Lib "user32" Alias "GetSystemMenu" _
(ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal bRevert As Long) As Long
Declare Function EnableMenuItem Lib "user32" Alias "EnableMenuItem" _
[Code].....

I am trying to work on an application that disables the close button (X) on the upper right hand corner of a window. In order to do that I need to use calls to API methods like GetSystemMenu, EnableMenuItem and RemoveMenu. I can figure out how these methods work but there are certain parameters that these methods have whose values that need to be passed to them as argument is unknown to me. How can I know them.
E.G.- for EnableMenuItem, the parameters are- hMenu (handle to the menu), uIDEnableItem (The menu item to be enabled, disabled, or grayed), uEnable (This parameter must be a combination of at least two of the following:
MF_BYCOMMAND or MF_BYPOSITION
MF_ENABLED, MF_DISABLED, or MF_GRAYED)
Now when I call this method from my application I supply the current window handle as the first argument, the item no. to be disabled/enabled as the second argument but I CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT TO SEND AS THE THIRD ARGUMENT. What exactly are the possible values for those parameters- MF_BYCOMMAND or MF_DISABLED. I checked certain examples where they are supplying hexadecimal values like &HF060, &H1, 0x400, 0x1000, 0x2 etc. or integer values like 1024, 2 etc. But how would I know what exactly these values are and when to use which value. The same problem arises in case of calling RemoveMenu method. If you know about any chart or tutorial that lists the values of these parameters
