Apr 29, 2011I am working on a project where I need to open microsoft word documents in a form with a panel (the document will be put into a panel).I found the code to try and use API, it would not recognize the file names (yes they are valid filenames).Tried a whole bunch of stuff. Here is my current incarnation:
Dim pi As New Process
Dim i As IntPtr
pi.StartInfo.FileName = FileName[code]....
It ALWAYS starts the word document in its own window and will not redirect it to my own program.I tried to redirect the output and it gave me a message that it was not a valid win32 application.
Visual Basic (Coding) - Child Form To Open Within A Panel On Its Parent?
Mar 2, 2012I have created a (kind of) 'Desktop' Form for the main basis of my program. Basically it is made up of 3 panel controls.
1. Holds all buttons which load the different forms (Like the windows start menu when expanded). name: StartMenuPanel
2. Holds Information on log in deatails. name: LogCheckPanel (very thin panel at top of screen)
3. Main panel which takes up the majority of the screen (where I want the forms to load). name: MainPanel
My aim is: When a button is clicked from the 'StartMenuPanel' the form will load with-in the 'MainPanel'.
I tried changing the start position to 'centre parent', but the panels are in the way so some of the childform is overlayed by the panels.
[Code]...
When I run this I get the following error: 'Top-level control cannot be added to a control'.
I hope I've explained this well enough.

VS 2008 Mimicking A Dialog Form Using A Panel?
Aug 6, 2010I'm developing an application that should run on a 'kind of' mobile device. It's not exactly a mobile device (hence I'm not developing in the mobile framework, just winforms), but I can't use various Forms either.
Right now I am working on a proof of concept, and I simulated the mobile device simply with a UserControl that has a fixed size. Everything needs to happen on that UserControl, and I cannot display any other forms.
However, I now need a 'Dialog Form' to let the user enter some data (mainly text but it doesn't really matter). What I'm doing now is simply showing a Panel with a TextBox, OK button and Cancel button. I bring that panel to the front, hiding the rest of the application, when required. The different Panels (there's also one for a CheckBox, ComboBox, and the main application is also on a Panel) are all on a 'PanelContainer' UserControl I made, and I can switch panels simply by specifying their 'key' (a string such as "TEXT", "CHECK", "COMBO" etc). So I can display the textbox panel by simply doing
panelContainer1.SelectedKey = "TEXT" That brings the textbox panel to the front.
What I want now is that I can 'show' the panel as if it were a Dialog form. That means that the code 'waits' until the user has entered his text and either clicked OK or Cancel. Then I could use it like this
' Show the panel here
Dim result As DialogResult = panelContainer1.Panels("TEXT").ShowDialog()
' and immediately use the result (the code won't come here until the user has selected ok or cancel)

Update Open Child Mdi Form Textbox From Parent Form?
Feb 3, 2012I have a date selector on mdi parent that updates a property when date is changed. When I open a child form, it grabs the property just fine. However if I change the date again after the child is open the date does not change on the child unless I close and reopen the form as expected. What would be the best way to automatically update all open child forms when the date is changed on the parent at anytime? running a timer to parse the date property is impractical.

This was a guess, after looking at the Form.ShowDialog method in reflector.My question is, is there a managed call I can make to acheive the same result, and what does a button click do that other clicks don't?
ETA: The problem does not occur if I open the form using a key.
Disabling The Parent Form When Child Form Is Open
Jul 18, 2012disable the parent window form as soon as the user will open the child form....
for eg...consider daniweb...when we click on member login the background form gets grayed out....
Disabling the form is not the option cause it will just disable all the controls of the form....but I need a grayed out screen between the current child form and the parent form....
note - the parent form is not the MDI form...it is just a normal window form and when the child form is open and if the user clicks on the main form without closing the child form then the screen should show some movement...
I tried disabling the form...changing the background of the form to opaque....but could not get through it....
Open (2nd) Form From (1st) Form In Multi Project Solution In VB
May 14, 2011I have read a lot of the prior questions/answers on this topic but it only took me so far. I have a solution to which I added 2 additional programs. These 2 added programs in essence create a PDF2TIFF converter using GS. I wish to call that form and use it as a utility from my main program. After reading other answers in the forum, I added these two programs as references in the main program and imported everything available, into the main program. I have what seems to be a correct build order set up. I want to open the form in the utility project(s) from a link on my main form. I tried a few things but the only way I could write the code without errors was to instantiate the second program then call that with a button click.

By Design mode I mean so you can see the controls, and ad buttons and stuff. The form still runs, if I run it. I see the form in the Solution explorer. From solution explorer, if I show all Files , then open FrmMain.Designer.vb, I can see my code. If I go to the project menu item and insert New Windows Form the new form works like I expect it too, I can see it. I need to be able to see my form.
