VS 2008 Form Hanging?
Feb 20, 2010
I have a visual basic program wherein i fetch information from two textboxes format the output of the textbox in the required form and then make the output come as desired I use two arrays to read textbox 1 and 2 separately and then i use for .. next statement to perform the same action for all the lines in the textbox 1 and 2..
Both of them have equal no of lines..I have also give a progress bar in the form and assigned the max value as the number of lines and i have given the incrementation within the program for the progressbar..
When i run the program it runs quite well for certain instant of time and the progress bar also responds according .. After some interval of time the form hangs and the progressbar also hangs at that place..Later after some more time the form is back to normal and the process is in finished form with progressbar at 100%..
Is there any reason why the form hangs..If there was a major problem i must have not got the output at all but i do get the output after certain interval of time..Can this problem be solved??

I'm not sure how to explain what's happening but it seems to be deadlock, i did search along the forum and actualy did find who had the same problem as i did. Unfortunatly i'm too new to this Threading and could not understand why does this deadlocks happen or how to avoid them.I'm using the following
Dim t As New Threading.Thread(AddressOf MyTestingSub)
t.Priority = Threading.ThreadPriority.BelowNormal
t.IsBackground = True

I have a series of methods being called for my networking code. An event gets fired from the networking thread. Inside this event, which I've hooked into from a singleton class, I route messages to form level methods which they register on form load to handle certain messages they care about. Inside of these form message hooks I need to close the current form (which I was able to do) but also show a different one (which is giving me the trouble).

I have a really simple form with a button that fires a Sub I created which gathers data from ActiveDirectory and adds it to an Excel Sheet. The problem is, when I click this button the whole form hangs. So I figured the operation that gathers the data and adding it to the Excel sheet should be run in it's own thread, so that the form won't hang. Possibly it would be great to add a progressbar as well. The progressbar however is located at the Main userform that starts up once the projects is run.
I've got one MainForm.vb and one CodeFile.vb. I want most of the code in the CodeFile.vb so it's tidier.
MainForm.vb
Imports User_edit.CodeFile
Imports System.ComponentModel
Public Class MainForm
Private Sub btnImportData_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnImportData.Click
[Code] .....
Notice the ExportFromAD Sub I've got in the CodeFile.vb. This is what is actually doing the work. In the For each loop that adds data to the Excel is where I've put the MainForm.MyBackgroundWorker.ReportProgress(i * 10). Problem is, it doesn't actually update the label on the form. Which I find pretty weird because the form isn't really hanging or anything. Is it trying to access a different thread or something? Meaning, the form is run on it's own thread which can't be accessed from my second thread?

Creating an application that uses both namedpipes and TCPIP connectivity to pass data between 2 legacy applications.
When there is actual data to pass everything works great. But when the application is looking to see if there is any data to read from the named pipe side and there is no data, the Peek hangs until there is data. Is there a problem in the way I have it coded or is there a timeout that needs to be set?
Code:
'
' declarations
'
Private in_pipeName As String

Edit 1: Uninstalled & Reinstalled Edit 2: Same problem. Seriously? Yes.I am having a problem with msvb7.dll eating 50%+ cpu on my dual core system. This usually lasts 10-30 seconds or so, during which time the IDE is non-responsive.
This occurs when I do pretty much anything in the text editor, and can be replicated by simply adding blank lines to a function, and then deleting them. Or pasting some code. Or... lotsa stuff.
SP1 installed I had DevExpress' refactor/coderush, components, and codeit.right installed, but have removed all 3 of them. (I had installed the latest version of Refactor Pro! (9.3.4), perhaps the day before)
I have tried a VS.NET Repair. There is a kb that referenced some cpu destroying with vb, but it was included in SP1

I'm doing a big loop in my program and throughout the loop I'm updating the textbox in the form.
However the form "hangs" untill the loop is done. How can I keep the form visible and be able to read the updated textbox while the loop is still running? I tried Me.Update() but it didn't work. I'm sure there was something like processdata or something like that but I can't find it anymore...
Example
For x = 1 To 10000
form1.textbox.text=x
Me.Update()
Next

I made a program that backs up data from the My Documents, Favorites, and Desktop folders on Windows XP to a server. When the data is brought down from the server, it brings it down in Windows 7 format. So, for example, the directory to My Documents in Windows XP is "C:Documents and SettingsusernameMy Documents." The same directory in Windows 7 is "C:UsersusernameDocuments."Everything works fine in terms of putting files and folders in the correct directory, but when bringing the data down from the server, the program sometimes freezes up and doesn't ever seem to get out of that state. It also makes the computer very slow and unresponsive after a while. Does anyone have any idea why this would occur?
Below, I have a code snippet of my copying code. I include a sleep command and a DoEvents command to halt the thread for a very short duration of time in order to make the UI more responsive.[code] I believe I may have to use some multi-threading to get this to work properly, but I've looked it up and cannot find out how to implement it in my program.

I have restarted my computer, disabled all add-ons and extensions that I could. Still no banana.I would try to clean the solution if I could get it to load but I can't.

On each of my form I have put an 'Exit' button. When user clicks it, another form is displayed (I don't want to use 'MessageBox') asking user whether he really wants to quit. If user clicks yes the form closes. If user clicks no, form is redisplayed.
However, out of 4 forms only one form refuses to redisplay. The code is exactly same on all forms. I have included 2 Express 2008 projects showing one form each in the zip file apps-ssk.zip

I assumed it would be the same in VB2008 but I get the error.'cmbDataTable' is not a menber of 'System.Windows.Forms.Form'I am working my way through the project, first updating the global procedures - this is one - I haven't written the calls so cmbDataTable doesn't yet exist.

In VB 2008, I have a Parent form with a combo box on it. There is a child form also with a combo box on it. I want to be able to change the values on the child form based on what the user selected from the main form. The user launches the child form from a toolbar on the Parent form. The following code is run:
[Code]...
What I want to do is if the Parent's combo box has "Red", "Blue", "Green" values and the user selects "Green", the child form's combo box(With the same values) will also change to "Green". (I do not need to change the Parent form if the child form changes.) I've tried changing the Child's combobox from the combobox's change event on the Parent form, and the code runs, but nothing changes on the child form.

I need to know the proper way, or maybe I should say, the different ways to call another form from a parent or preceding form. I am currently using ex: formname.showdialog() to call my next form, but I am uncertain if I should be using that in every situation. [code] Whats the difference between these different methods? (ex: .showdialog() , .show() )I tried both of these to open a temporary form to retrieve a persons name from a database, so as the users progresses through my training program they can keep track of their scores.But, I also call other forms as I branch through my program, from the main page, to a secondary page, to a testing page, to a results page and then back to the secondary page

i am having an issue populating two combo boxes on form load. The program will connect to an access database and pull data as instructed. Then as it pulls each record it puts it into the combo box.
This was working.. atleast i think it was. i dont recall it ever not working, however i wasn't looking for it.
My problem is that if when i load the MDI parent form and have it skip the selection form and the login form and load the next form in the sequence, it loads everything perfectly. However if the select form is loaded first, then the login form and then the form i need loaded, it will not populate. The only difference between the two different loads is that the login form calls a function that loads the form as a new project.form
I did this so that I can have multiple forms open at a time. I am assuming my problem is that I need to get the child forms handle then populating controls using that handle? but i think if I had to do that then I would beable to populate the comboboxes on the first form load using the login method of opening the form.
Here's my code.
vb.net
Private Sub frmLine1t5_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Me.Text = "Line " & LineNumber & " Test Form"

When I use
Me.Close()
Form1.Show()
It closes the whole app.
How would I change it so that it only closes the current form while opening a new one? EDIT: I put [Not Resolved] Because I accidently pressed the resolved thing
