I am coding a program and I want to add an option of moving 2D map (using the mouse to move the map left, right, up and down). when I say to move a map is not moving a window. I want actually to move the map itself, for example "google maps".

Okay so I have decided to upgrade my game from vb5 to vb2008 express edition. When I opened it I was told it needed to be converted so I said ok. However, there are some things in the language syntax that have changed.Obviously. Well here is one of them:

Setting controls to objects allowed me to cut down on typing but it seems you are not allowed to reference things without the "full path". I understand that you now have to set the full path of the object but doesn't setting something to an object already do that? Do I have to just delete the object references on the top and instead of using objCmbGraveU2 I now need to replace it with frmMain.cmbGraveU2?
Have been doing well moving a VB6 project to VB 2008.Here's another question.I am making an onscreen keyboard.I have my qwerty buttons handled by the same Event, as recommended to me by someone in these forums. It works great, and it was easy to set up.In my VB6 project, when I designed the "CAPS" button, all I had to do was this:

Can someone take a second and explain to me how this is accomplished in VB 2008? Do I have to physically type every button into an array and then do something like I did in VB6?

I set up some code that allows the user to drag and drop PictureBoxes. The problem is that I have 9 PictureBoxes arranged in a 3x3 square and I need all of them to move as one. I put them in a panel hoping I could use my code with the panel, but that doesn't work since the PictureBoxes are what the User clicks, not the panel.
View 4 Repliesdon't want to run into any problems. I just set up a 2nd PC and installed VB express 2008 on it.
If I want to move a project and all it's necessary files to the new PC, is it as simple as copying the project folder and then File > Open ?
If so, can't remember -- best choice is the project file or sln file?

I just can't seem to get the "Do Something" code right.
I already got the move part, that's easy, what I'm having trouble with is when I click on the form and try to move it, it shifts a little, that is really annoying, I just want it to be smooth. I want it to be as if I'm moving the form from the title bar. [Code]

How would I move the mouse to a color thats somewhere on the screen, not the form? I heard that GetPixel was a slow method, what would be a better/faster method? -I dont want to take a bitmap of the screen and then search the bitmap-I have already searched the forum, but I cant find what I want
View 2 RepliesI have a panel that has 9 pictures boxes within it. I need the User to be able to create as many instances of this control as they like.
Then each control needs to be able to move freely within the form.
I've created the control and added the appropriate code to move it around the control.
I've made the control canvas the same size of the panel. The problem is that when I move the panel, it only moves within the bounds of the control canvas. I guess I could increase the size of the canvas, but then additional controls would still only be able to move within their bounds and it would come out all wrong.
Is there anything I could do about this? Or is there a better method?
How can i move a form to a different project.
View 2 Repliesi recently posted a thread about the same project, but decided this was a more specific question, so i decided to open a new thread My question regards the graphics class in visual basic 2008. Ive searched the internet low and high for an answer to this, but i cannot find anything! I am attempting to 'shoot' a circle drawn on the form when the user presses the 'r' key. if a string property is set to right, the graphic should be drawn, then updated to different x coordinates based on an interval. if the property is 'up' or 'down' then the y coordinate of the graphic should be changed based on another interval. Now i cannot use one preset timer, because i would be able to shoot only one bullet at a time, which would not work!
Does anyone know how i can either create an array of graphics(bullets) and add to the list every time the user presses r, then using one preset timer, update them all, or simple create a timer every time a bullet is created, then update the bullet position with its own timer.
I'm designing a new application, but have two big problems.I wanna put an image in my form, and have the possibility to drag them.For example, I put an image with 100*100 but my imageviewe ronly have 50*50 So, I wanna drag the image around the imageviewer.
How can I do this?The other problem is:In the image I wanna design some squares, with the possibility to drag them to.Drag the squares it's working fine.But, the problem is, when drag the image, I wanna the squares "follow" the imagem and keep thei position in the image.If it was confuse, I try upload an explanation image.

I've recently decided to switch from VB6 to VB2008 and am looking for some advice for a certain type of book I seek.Already I've aquired several VB2008 books, but the type of reference book I'm seeking I can't find.For VB6 I have a book called "The visual guide to visual basic". It's a very very very very old book but its gold, platinum and diamonds in one.This book basically takes ALL controls, commands, etc, and in alphabetical order as a sort of encyclopedia, explains its purposes, possibilities, properties together with many examples.
If I was uncertain about a control or command I could simply look it up in this book and almost always find what I was looking for.My question, does anybody know of an equivalent for VB2008?
Is there any way to merge cells in datagridview in vb2008 like we could do it in excel?
