Why is the "Me" keyword not working. The error was "Syntax error"
Basically I currently have the following code which enables me to print the form perfectly.

However, with the coding above on the print preview the form screen shoot/dump isn't centred. So I was wondering what would be the way to go about doing it? This is using the printform in the power packs available btw.
Also I figured it might be using height/width/location/margins etc, but I'm not to sure how one goes about assingning values to them. Like the two above I commented don't work.

View 8 RepliesIn many apps I have needed to disable the maximize and resize features of the main window because the textboxes and buttons stay exactly the same without realigning or resizing automatically. How can I change it so that buttons maintain their proportions and that textboxes will stretch when the window is resized?
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to resize various datagridview objects at run time, using the following subroutine
Sub GridHeight7(ByVal grd As DataGridView, ByVal highest As Integer)
Dim jr%, w&

It appears that that only the top property is passed to the subroutine, that is, rowcount and the others appear to have a value of zero. Using ByRef makes no difference.
This just started happening recently...If I resize the form, the contents do not change.(All controls on the form are docked in such a way that resizing the form resizes the controls). If I make the form bigger than what it loaded at, the contents stay the same and the extra room is black. If I make it smaller than original, then it just cuts things off.Any idea what could be happening here? It is a standard System.Windows.Forms.Form. Nothing special handled on Resize, ResizeStart, ResizeEnd, or SizeChanged events.

Is there an easy way to resize everything on a form when the form is resized? (so like fitting it to the form?)
Some of the text on my application gets cut off when the frm gets to small. I was think when my frm gets to a small size that my application could re size this label on the application.I know that i will have to work with the Form1_Resize property.

I need to let the end user move and resize objects (like a textbox or button). There are several examples that demonstrate this in VB, but not in VB Express 2008, based upon VB.net.It looks like earlier you needed to access Windows API, but these calls does not work in VB.net. I understand that these call are replaced by "native" .net calls, but I cannot find any that does the job.
A typial example from old VB is:
Private Declare Function GetWindowLong Lib "user32" Alias "GetWindowLongA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal nIndex As Long) As Long
This does not work in VB.net.

View 1 RepliesWithin the subroutine, I am counting the number of open Forms and dividing the bounds of the screen by the number of open forms everytime a button is clicked.his gives me a way to Size each video box perfectly according to the number of forms open.This is where I have found a problem. The size of the new window only sizes the newly opened on and will not resize the ones that are already open. I will give an example of my subroutine.Note: Because of the nature of my program, I am not allowed to take any code out of the work zone and so I will be summarizing what I am doing rather than showing the actual code.
Private videoShow (byval videoName, byval videoIp)
dim videoForm as new form

View 1 RepliesFrom this forum I saw some discussions about form/controls resizing issue with different resolution screen setting. Most suggestions are using Anchor/Dock. My application's form has 10 group boxes and some buttons. In each group box there are 5 Text boxes and other more controls. I tried anchor and dock but couldn't make it work. My questions are -
1, How to re-size form and all individual controls as well?
2, If anchor/Dock are suggested, do i have to use both of them or just one? it seems to me there is no big difference between them.
I'm making a tileset creator and everything is working fine so far except previewing a tile. The way it works now is it gets the image from a picturebox and calls the following code when scrolling the mousewheel. It functions fine but there is a border appearing between the tiles and I can't figure out why. The source image is 32x32 in size. Most likely it is the graphics class not measuring in pixels or something.
Public Sub ResizePreview(ByVal dSize As Drawing.Size)

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to set up a system to resize multiple objects on a form (40+) when the form resizes. I've got it working but it's rather slow, when I resize the form it stutters a lot from looping through the objects to resize them. Is there a better way to do this that would not cause the stuttering effect?

So for capturing data from the ship we suggested to create a WCF services which will be deployed in Ship.
