Alright inside of a combo box I have a list of colors and I want to change the background color of the combo box to the selected color...basically this... but im not sure what the problem is here anyone have some advice or is this not possible?
CBLinerColor.BackColor() = CBLinerColor.Items.Item(0)
Basically i want dynamic code that will change the color depending on the items in the box.
I want the background of my form to be the same color as the window frame color that the user selects, even if that changes. I selected System->WindowFrame as my background color, but it always remains a dark grey, regardless of what I have my window color set to. How else would I achieve what I want? I assumed I was doing it the correct way. Do I actually need code that gets the system window color and then apply it?

View 6 RepliesI'm a huge music person (got my own lil record thing going) but I'm wanting to design a program that would make music in my way. I have a decent amount of background knowlege of Visual Basic and Java I'm just wondering how could I execute this whole project. The Project is making a MPC Sampler. MPC is a drum machine; a machine with buttons that once you press it that it will play a sound from a drum (ex: snare, kick, tom, ect.) . So I would want to make some pads on my program that each have their own sound. Total of 16 pads. Which the design wouldn't be hard to make nor would the functionality of it having the play back sound (in my opinoin it wouldn't be hard atleast). But the thing is I wanna map out these pads to number keys on the number pad or keyboard. I'm not so sure how to do that. But that's all the easy stuff...
Also finding information is making a sound directory. What I mean by this is that I want to make a User Interface that will open up a file directory of sounds and the user can select what "kick" or "snare" sound he may want for the kick or snare pad. I don't know how to do that or even know what to search; neverless I don't know if this whole project idea is a good idea for Visual Basic or another programing language.
Also LATER ON I am wanting to add a record and export function that alows users to..well...record and export their beat or instrumental ha. That doesn't seem too too complex (mainly due to the fact that all it needs to do is record the users key strokes and then show them and play the sounds, but obviously it would get more complex than that.)
Here is an image of one of many MPCs but one with a directory - [URL]
I have to write a program that allows users to specify two numbers and then adds, subtracts or multiplies them when the user clicks on the appropriate button.

I am having some trouble with patching a file in Visual Basic 2008. The idea is like that.
1- Store File In The Program Using "Resources".
2- If The Program Is Runned. My Program Should Show This Message "Please Close The Program" Or Making My Program Close The Program That I want To Patch.
3- If The Program That I want to patch is closed. Then When you click the button. the file dialogue opened and give to user the ability to choose the file that i want to modify "Replace or patched" after that the file will copied from resource and replaced the old file "Patched" after when this operation finished.
4- show this message "Your Program Is Patched. Enjoy", and the resources file should be crypted Waiting The Solution.
I want to create an app that is constantly running and as part of my desktop toolbar. When I mouse over the icon, I want the list to show in front of all other windows on the screan. I, also, want it to fade away once the mouse leaves the icon.If the icon is clicked, the window displays.
I want to be able to click-and-hold the title bar to move it around when the window is displayed. I want the full display of the window to be a check box list with each line being ~25 characters long. At the top of the window, there should always be an open line on top of the list where I can enter a new "task," and hitting the "ENTER" key will save the line and move it down one line, as well as the entire list underneath
The action of ENTERing a new "task" should spawn a new open line at the top of the checkbox where the user can enter a new task. When a box (located to the left in front of each line of text) is checked for a line, that line will disappear."Checking" a box should move every line underneath of the Checked (and thus deleted) line up one line. There should be a "close" or "minimize" (depending on how you keep in to the task bar) button the hide the app when I'm through using it.

View 1 RepliesI am looking for a tutorial for making reports with Visual Studio 2008. I have a VB.Net app using hard coded MySQL statements and variables from different parts of the program, mostly the server as I have the same app with options to connect to different servers with the same back end structure (different data unique). As far as i know I can not use data sets (I think thats the name for them) as that would mean one program for one location.

View 16 RepliesI'm try to make a simple small Anti-Virus application. This is not for commercial use. Just to test it, and maybe learn something that will help me in the long run.First, please don't reply by saying "C#" or "C++" is suggested for such as task.This is just a test application. Lets start with simple stuff such as "virus signature"I found this example: Which i believe reads the file, and checks for the sample signature.
VB.net
Function detect() As Boolean
Dim file() As Byte = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9} 'sample file
Dim virus() As Byte = {4, 5, 6} 'sample signature
[code]....
Third, then what i read was that i have to get arbitrary string of bytes as the signature.Which i needed to use hexadecimal editor to view such data.how can i detect virus file, from normal file.

View 6 RepliesI plan on making a Visual Basic Project that involves playing a series of videos. I wanted to have six videos in my project. The videos would be selected through checkboxes. Once the videos are selected, I wanted them to play automatically one after the other from one video player either in the same form or in another form.Is this possible to do? If so, how would the coding work? I am using Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition.

So i decided to make a units converter for my term's project and my teacher insisted on including the combo box in this project. I'm not really familiar with the combo box as i am still a beginner in visual basic. I've looked around and learned a bit about using the combo box but later i faced a problem. First i created a Main combo box and placed it in the middle of the form. I managed to use the select case command to make other combo boxes appear and disappear as i wish. I don't really know how to describe the problem, i want to make it that if i choose the input as a unit and the output is any other unit from two different combo boxes, the value in the input text box would be multiplied by a certain conversion factor and the result will be shown in the output text box.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to make a user control for information received from a database but i get:The class WFUserControl can be designed, but is not the first class in the file. Visual Studio requires that designers use the first class in the file. Move the class code so that it is the first class in the file and try loading the designer again.
Do i make the user control directly and add the code? Because thats what i did.. Or are there steps to do first before creating it?
excuse my coding and term limitations. I'm still learning and have only done what I'd consider basic things. I tried to search this solution for hours and but I'm coming up with nothing.
What I want to do is to reference different check boxes using one loop.
Like this..For xItemNo = 0 To 3
[Code]...
I get the error "Public member 'Checked' on type 'Boolean' not found." I get the fact I'm not able to simply make the text of the code into a variable I can easily insert into the code at will. At least not how I'm trying to do it.How can I dynamically change the check box name I'm referencing in the loop so I don't have to duplicate the code over and over for every check box name?
How would I make this? Or if there is any tuts on this I would love the link!
