VS 2005 - Custom Control - Affect Records That Were Manually Changed
Jul 19, 2009
i created a custom control that accepts only datetime values. [url] but i'm having some issues with it when it is bound to a column and then i navigate through records. it seems to trigger a row-change to all navigated records even though i haven't manually change anything on these records.
this is affecting the last_update_date and last_updated_by fields of my tables. i need to only affect records that were manually changed. can anyone help me? also, any date field should be bound to the Value property of this control instead of Text. haven't figured out how to remove the Text from bindable properties yet.

While implementing this article,i cant understand what they try to mean by this:Still in the Code Window, change the line that reads:Inherits System.Windows.Forms.UserControl So that it reads:Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Button..if i change this line of the designer form: Inherits System.Windows.Forms.UserControl to this: Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Button...then when i return to the designer,i am getting this error: The designer cannot process the code at line 22: Me.AutoScaleDimensions = New System.Drawing.SizeF(6.0!, 13.0!) The code within the method 'Initialize Component' is generated by the designer and should not be manually modified. Please remove any changes and try opening the designer again.

What I would like to do now is well convert this somehow to a class. so I do not have to DirectCast the items. Is this possible?
Here is the original code that kleinma assisted me with:
Dim CtlLosArray(150) As ShieldLOSInfobox
CtlLosArray(0) = New ShieldLOSInfobox
CtlLosArray(0).Location = New Point(0, 0)
[code]....
Is there a way to make this into a custom class so that I can make things easier to manipulate? at least that is how I think it would be done.

I am already overriding the SnapLines property in my ControlDesigner-derived class to manually forward out various snaplines from the child controls of my control -- the text baseline (pink) snap from the labels and comboboxes; the text inset snap from the labels; the top, bottom, left and right snaplines from the comboboxes. Those snaplines activate when the control itself is moved around on the form and when other controls are moved around it.
What I need is the ability to tell the designer to activate the snaplines and then deactivate them while I'm doing an internal move or resize of the underlying controls.My comboboxes are resizable through overrides of OnMouseDragBegin, OnMouseDragMove, and OnMouseDragEnd in my control designer. The magic bullet I'm looking for is something I can call in Begin to tell the designer to show the snaplines and something in End to tell it to stop.
Allowing people to resize and move the internal controls at design time is kind of useless if they don't show snaplines for each other or for external controls.As with stuff like this, it's incredibly hard to search for. I've found one post on a forum where someone asked this exact question that had (of course) no responses. That's about it.

A friend of mine called me to that we need a program for our club that when a member will enter in club gate so first of he will have a card upon which a barcode will be printed and through barcode reader his code will be scanned and will be find out that whether he is a temporary member or regular member or absent member or other. Only regular members are allowed to enter into club and allowed to avail all services of club. Now the question is that i dont know that how the custom barcode will be created and how the scanner will be controlled with vb.net?

I created a custom control. I put it on a form with Dock = Top. I place a standard Windows Panel below it and set it's Dock = Fill. I would expect the top of the Panel to bump up against the bottom of the custom control, but instead, it goes underneath it and jumps all the way to the top of the form. This behavior does not seem to exist if I place two Panels on the form and set one to top and the other to fill. The second one bumps up against the bottom of the first one, as I would expect. But my custom control (from UserControl) does not seem to work this way. Do I have to set something special on my control?

I created a custom control and add it to a form programatically.
The user can add and move them all over the form.
The problem is when I want to clear the form of my user control I don't know how.
I created an array of my control called ctlCorkNotes
Say I create ctlCorkNotes(1) and now I want to delete it.
How do I do this so it is gone and would have to recreate it to show up again?

I need to set some of the columns in a DGV to specific widths. What I am looking for is to line the columns up with the labels above them. I am trying to do it like this(the numbers are just for testing):
Me.DataGridView1.DataSource = dsForm.Tables(0)
' column 6
Me.DataGridView1.Columns(6).Width = 100
[Code].....
what I might have to change in the properties of the DGV for the code to set the widths, I've changed so many that I am not sure what the default settings are any more. Also the look of the form is not open to suggestion as this is what the customer wants.

I have a class and one of the properties is a list of a custom class. The caller gets the list and is adding instances of class to the list. How do I get notified that the list has been updated?
Private _list as List(of MyType)
Private _totalField1 as Integer
Public Property MyTypeList As List(Of MyType)
Get
Return _list
End Get
Set(ByVal value As List(Of MyType))
_list= value
_totalField1 = _list.Sum(Function(x) x.Field1)
End Set
End Property
What I'm trying to do is every time a MyType object is added to the list keep a running total of Field1, but adding to the list doesn't use the setter. How can I know when the list has been added or changed?

There's an website which lists the manufacturer's of the items they deal with. Upon clicking on the manufacturer link we get the relevant list of items. There are around 60 manuf. and each manuf makes around 500 items.
The complete list of items of an particluar manufacturer is split in pages and displayed on the web page, one page at a time and also links to the next pages.
There are around 4 to 5 items newly added weekly for each manufacturer.
So what i wanted was , first the complete data must be stored in the database and displayed to the user , and later only the updates should be displayed to the user.
For this, what approch i thought is, opening each and every page of the website and then extracting the data form the site and storing in the database. Then again whenever user wants an update , again extacting the complete data from the website and comparing it with the old data and displaying the update.

How do I change the number of gridlines a chart displays? My chart data runs from 00:00 to 23:59 but due to the auto scaling I get gridlines and labels at funny time e.g 05:37 or 10:23. What I'd like is a label and line every hour but I can't find which property sets it!

i had designed a form with various controls added some days ago. Accordingly i had coded the controls. And today i didnt like the look and feel of the form, so i copied the controls for a while and then re-pasted it over a new control (panel). Now when i double click to see the underlying code of the control generates a new event. I mean i had a button as Button1 and its underlying code was under the Button1_Click event. But now its is like Button1_Click_1 which i dont understand. Is it due to formation of control array or what? I want the button to be remapped to Button1_Click event.

This starts with an object being added to a collection with: CommonArgs.Add(ObjName, Me)
ObjName is a string, call it "Obj1". Me is an instance of a class inheriting from UserControl. Call it "Class1".
Now, to check the value assigned to Obj1, the vendor has the
Dim Obj As Object = CommonArgs(ObjName)
Dim Info As System.Reflection.FieldInfo = Obj.GetType().GetField(ObjName, System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Public Or System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance Or System.Reflection.BindingFlags.IgnoreCase)
Obj is the Class1 object added to CommonArgs.
When I run this in my test app, Info is Nothing-but when I run it in the vendor's app Info is an Enumerated type. Why?
I've found a little more info, but it's still a mystery to me-and so far it appears to be a mystery to everybody else, too.
First, I noticed that I didn't mention that the Collection is a Hashtable. I don't know if that would make a difference, but it is something I forgot to mention.
Second, there's a 'regular' variable named ObjName that contains the value being returned by Info. My understanding is that there's no connection between these, e.g. Dim X as Integer = 1 doesn't change the type or value of the object of CommonArgs("X"). But that's what appears to be happening.
Any suggestion?

When my app closes, perform a checksum, digital signature, whatever on a data file, and save that in a text file.
When my app opens again, perform that same process on the file, and see if the new checksum matches the saved one, in order to determine if the file has been changed outside the application.

I have a form with several databound controls. Certain users will be able to change the data in these fields. Is there a way to check whether the data in any databound control has changed? I would like to do this so that I can enable an UPDATE button and flag a warning to the user that they must save their changes.

I am using custom textboxes and I need to be able to set the Text on txb1 based on the Text of txb2. I have simplied my code to the following:
Public Class customtextbox
Inherits TextBox
Public Event ControlReset()
[Code]....
So, when txb1 looses focus, if its Text is "fried", then it sets off txb2's ProcessAlert function. I had tried to change the value of txb2 Text in ProcessAlert function, but didnt work, so I tried to get it to raise an event instead, which then tries to set the Text property. However I still cant set txb2's Text property. The Text property seems to be set for the duration of the "life" of the Event handler. When I step through the forms controls within the Event handler, the changed Text value is there, but not outside of the Event handler.

I have a datagridview(dgv) with a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn(colLocation)
colLocation.AutoComplete = False
colLocation.HeaderText = "Stored to"
colLocation.DataSource = DB.getLocation()
[code]....
I added the colLocation to dgv."descirption" contains Unicode characters. I can see the comboBox correctly and choose the item.The problem is when the comboBox lost the focus, the value is changed to first item of the comboBox.
Updated:I found out that the ComboBox doesn't change the data when the DisplayMember is in English characters. It changes only when the DisplayMember is in Unicode chracter.

I changed my Username on my computer from i.e. "xxxxxx x xxxxx" to "Dennis"
VB 2008 during a compile gave me the following error: Error reading icon 'C:Usersxxxxxx x xxxxxAppDataRoamingMicrosoftVBExpress9.0VSProjectApplication.ico' -- The system cannot find the path specified.
The file "VSProjectApplication.ico" is in 'C:UsersDennisAppDataRoamingMicrosoftVBExpress9.0'
Somewhere in the VB2008 "configuration" files I believe that I need to manually change the old path to the new path.
I found the old path in the ".suo" file. The ".suo" file is not a text file. How can I edit the .suo file, save it so that it will work?

In the windows form designer, I added a StatusStrip control, made some changes to adding items and changed the names of the items to names I would recognize, for instance I changed "ToolStripStatusLabel3" to "lblMode". All was fine until I inadvertenly deleted the StatusStrip. Now when I add it back to the form and try to change the name I get an error saying that the name "lblMode" is already in use. And sure enough it is listed in the items of the properties window, but not dislayed anywhere.
I am not sure how to resolve this. I know there is a window, I think its called "Project Designer" or something similar that is code where controls get added but I CANNOT find this window to view the code.

even Word Pad, when you scroll your Caret (the I-beam for browsing through text) through the text, in the font combobox, the font of the text you are browsing through will be displayed, and when you scroll your caret through a different font, the font will be changed. If you're confused, look at attatched picture.
I cannot seem to find a caret position changed event on the normal richtextbox control - and if anyone can show me a custom component with this it would help me a huge amount.So my basic question is how can i replicate the formentioned function in my own VB.NET program.No code is necessary just constructive suggestions, or links to other projects would be welcome. You don't need to quote the forum rules
