VS 2008 Basic Image Viewing App Crashing On All Animated .gif?
Jul 7, 2009
Well after coding a very basic image viewing application all seemed well. All animated .gif files played beautifully, all .png, .jpg, .bmp, etc, initiated well. However I've now, for some unkown reason, hit a snag. The animated .gif files still play, but they crash after a few seconds of play. Providing this error:

ExternalException was unhandled A generic error occurred in GDI+.
Here is my
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog()
[code]....
why it's not working?

Does somebody know where i can get Microsoft's status indicator bar animated image that has a progress bar on it that when it reaches the maximum it goes the other way round.
You can find a small version of it in :c:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7VS2005ImageLibraryVS2005ImageLibraryanimationsstatus_anim.gif and it is called
"Indeterminate status indicator bar".

I can't really figure out how to extract frames and what not from an animated image stored in a picturebox. I made a post earlier similar to this matter. But now I must ask how it is that you work with GetFrame and SetActiveFrame.

I am writing an industrial control front-end that has some "fancy" graphics to indicate the states of some machinery. For example, I indicate that some heaters are on by showing red wavy arrows emanating out from a picture of a heater. I accomplished this by creating a class that inherits from PictureBox and using a timer to advance the images:
Public Class AnimatedPictureBox
Inherits PictureBox
Private WithEvents Timer As New Timers.Timer
Public Property Interval As Double
[Code] .....
My question is "Is this an alright way to go about this or is there some obvious better way?" I'm not too good at programming and am worried that having several of these objects with their embedded timers taxing the CPU. I went with animated GIFs for some other animation stuff, but here, I wanted to be able to handle image formats that can handle a larger palette than a GIF (if that makes sense). In other words, when I tried to save some of my animations as GIFs, the image quality took an unacceptable hit.

i'm running Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition (latest service pack ... 9.0.30729.1 SP) on XP Pro SP3 with .Net Framework version 3.5 SP1 I have a rather large project I've imported from Visual Studio 2003 (Standard).The project compiles and runs just fine ... my compiled program itself never crashes.
But while I actually have the code up in the IDE, and simply adding/deleting code the whole IDE will randomly crash (usually without warning) and I loose my changes since last save.If/when I do get some hint of why it crashed, I get a window about illegal whitespace or something.... but that's rare ... usually it just crashes without warning and the whole IDE completely shuts down instantly. just deleting/adding a character is enough to trigger it maybe once every 30 minutes.
This is on a computer that is otherwise very rock solid .... no other program ever crashes, etc.

I am writing an application to compare each item on listbox1 to all items on listbox2. If the item is found, then remove it from both lists. The goal is to only have the items that were not found remain on both lists.
The problem is, the application just hangs and I never get any results. I looked at my code several times and I cannot figure out what's going on (programming noob I know.

I'm getting a really strange error. I have a program that needs to run a thread on startup, and for some reason when I do myThread.Start() in Form1() it will crash with "program is not working" (But only on Windows Server, not on my local machine!). However, if I put the same code under button1_Start() it works no problem. What gives?
EDIT A little extra information: In my thread I have a line of code that uses invoke
Invoke(new Action(() => richTextBox1.AppendText(string.Format("Updating {0}..
", DateTime.Now))));
And for some reason the crashing goes away after I make the thread sleep for 2 seconds before it starts executing. Am I using the right method to execute code on the app startup?

I've been attempting to tinker around with connecting a MS access database to a vb 2008 app. I've successfully connected and can access the data by using the add data sources tab. But what I'm trying to do is create a form that has a (1) single line text box, (1) button, and (1)multi line text box. I enter a name in the single line text box, click the button(search db), and when the info is found, it is displayed in the multi-line text box.

I do not know how to setup a loop for several pictures and displaying them in a picturebox by hitting a next button or previous button. I have two picture boxes on my form, I have a previous and next button on the bottom of the form, then I just need to know how to setup my loop for cycling through each picture. I have several pictures to go through.

I am using a webbrowser control, which is used for both internet and folder exploring. How can I determine when viewing files on the local directory, which file is selected?
I ran across something in my searches saying there was a property under the webbrowser.document called SelectedItem. But this must not be in 2008.

I am trying to move from the old ADO to the new ADO .NET . However , no matter how many tutorials I read over the internet , I still can't find a way to do something which , as I believe , has to be very simple I tried to mimic the way the graphic control did but I am missing some things ... I noticed that , in the graphic way , the wizard created 4 controls :- a DataGridView control- a DataSet control- a BindingSource control- a TableAdapter controlI recreated all of them and filled their correspondent properties , but yet I can't make it work . I think what I am missing is the connection itself . I looked on the internet and I think a connection can be made and opened like this :
Dim DataBaseConnectionMY As New OleDb.OleDbConnection
DataBaseConnectionMY.ConnectionString = "PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source = C:ProsoData.mdb"

I want to create a Windows application with Visual Basic. The application is pretty simple: It lets you choose 2 images, and when you click "Create" the application will create a new .png image from combining the two images' bitmaps. This new file will be created on a specified directory.

It is very easy to move your cursor to a specific coordinate but my question here is how do you move your cursor to an image? Now what this would involve doing is importing an image so the program understands it, then finding that image on your screen (maybe through RGB colors). How exactly do you do this? What is the procedure? Say I want to import this image: [IMG][URL][/IMG] Now I want the program to find that image on the screen (THE START BUTTON) and then move my cursor on it.

Back in Visual Basic 6.0 and prior I could have a picturebox control and then have multiple images on that and using a gif file; then I'd have some images transparent. For example, I am trying to make a map where each country has it's own layer and the void is transparent so the underlying picturebox contains all the water.
However, in visual studio I've noticed the image control is now gone. I tried using a panel and a picturebox on top of that and it works but I can't use another picturebox on top of that picturebox, nor can I stack multiple panels with the same affect.

I have a dll that someone made me in C++. I needed to use this dll in VB, in order to do that I had to make another dll in C++ that has functions I can call in VB.
The C++ dll I made has 4 functions. 2 callback functions that retrieve information from the original C++. And 2 functions that I can call from VB to send that information.
I know the original dll works fine as Ive tested it endlessly in a console app.
However when I use it with my dll and VB.. I get random crashes.
There is almost no code in my VB app as its just for testing. It just outputs the information so theres no problem there.
I believe the problem is in the C++ dll I made. I am pretty new with C++.I think maybe a variable gets accessed in 2spots at the same time (is this possible?) and causes it to crash?[code]...

My app wont start up on any 32bit PCs. It brings an error. Ive tried all the solutions mentioned like going into Compile and changing the Platform, and other things. I have come to the conclusion it Might just be something faulty with my coding. Here is the only place in my code that could be doing it.
