VS 2008 : Get Label Caption/text From Another Application?

Mar 6, 2010

I've been tasked to create one automation program that needs to read SysListview32, Listbox and Label content of another application [this was written by previous employee, but the source code didn't preserve]. I'm now successfully reading the content of ListBox and ListView, however I haven't been able to read the Label content....I've somewhere even read this might not be possible, which is what I wouldn't like to hear here as well )))The target application was written probably in C++ and when I get over the target label with tools such as Spy++ or Winspector, it doesn't draw the red rectangle around the label...

Code For A Label Caption?

Mar 30, 2011

I have made a model in excel (windows vista) which predicts the rate of an organisms growth.The mass of the organism changes for a given year depending on the size of the time step. I would ideally like to have a label which displays the mass, at a given year of growth to demonstrate this. Is there a way a row number can be attributed to a value in a column? Something like:

mass = Cells(i, 2)
i = "the row number where the number 6 is in column one!!" <<<<This is where the problem lies!

Record Label Caption Into DB?

Apr 13, 2009

I am using a solution called AdvancedHMI for building an interface to PLC. I a label setup that reflects the value of a certain integer coming from the PLC. This is my question, how can I take the label caption and record it into a database every 5 minutes, or hour, etc.? I already have the stringconnection made to a test db in my sample file, I just don't know vb well enough to do this. What I'm getting at is I want to record several temperature values at certain intervals. The amount of time between doesn't need to be change often, but it would be nice if it could be changed by user.

How Will Change The Label's Text To The Random String Of The Text File On Startup Of The Application

Apr 23, 2011

I have a label that reads a random line from a text file and that string becomes the text for the label.

Now the problem; the label will only work if it is clicked because the event handler is click.What I need is this to work automatically at startup. In other words, it should change the label's text to the random string of the text file on startup of the application.

Here is my code.[code..]

VS 2010 - Monitor 3rd Party Child Application Dialog Caption

Feb 10, 2011

I would like to know if its possible for my vb.net app to monitor a 3rd party application that it starts. I'd like it to check every 0.5 seconds to see if the child app has a dialog box visible with a specific text string caption. If it does then I want to close my app but if isn't yet visible, keep looping until it is. I'm asking because the 3rd party app has "no event firing when the application starts to load and then displays the dialog so there is no way for the 3rd party app to report back" to my vb.net app when this is loaded.

This came from the Technical Support from the 3rd party app after I asked if using waitforinputidle() in my app would allow me to detect when their app finishes loading and enters an idle state (sadly not). However they have suggested that it might be possible to monitor their app for a specific dialog caption and then close my app but this is beyond my novice understanding just now. How to go about such a process?

Loading Text (strings) From A Database Into A Label.text (so Text From Database Shows Up Into Label)

Apr 4, 2011

I have a form that I am loading text (strings) from a database into a label.text (so the text from the database shows up into the label) I have done this code in a class that keeps all my database stuff seperate.

Public Function getQuestions() As List(Of String)
Dim question As New List(Of String)
objConnection.Open()
objReader = objcommand.ExecuteReader

[CODE]...

Within the form that the label is in I have done this code

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Label1.Text(db.getQuestions().ToArray)
End Sub

I am basically making a quiz, so that when the form loads, question 1 is on there is 4 possible answers. You then press next button and it goes to the next question.

VS 2008 : Dynamically Update Label Text?

Aug 8, 2011

I have several group boxes on a winform. within each there are several labels.I am accessing the group boxes with no issues but I can't seem to find a way to update the labels within by looping. They have the same name except the last character which is a number 1 - 9. ex. lbl1, lbl2 ... lbl9.I need to update the text of each label in code with text I get from a database ex. lbl1.text = one, lbl2.text = two etc... I want to loop through the labels to assign the text. Getting text from database is no issue what I am not doing properly is getting the labels.

do while QstNum < 10
Dim ln As New Label
ln.Name = "SC_Cat" & QstNum
