VS 2008 Pause Or Slow Application?

Oct 14, 2010

I am moving a lot of data to MS Excel from my application. I use a conditional statement to choose which Excel page the data is transferred into. Then a For Next statement to divide the data into various areas on the Excel sheet.The first sheet will always work correctly, but on the next conditional statement to chose the next Excel sheet no data transfers when running the program. If I step the program by hand all data all code works fine. I believe I need to pause between the conditional statements but I have been unable to get one to work.In the following code I have been trying to get a pause between to conditional statement to no avail.

VS 2008 Application So Slow?

Aug 24, 2009

I have been developing an application using Visual Studio/VB and access 07 for my db. On the system I am developing my app. the db is local and the speed of the application is very good when I debug it. As I publish my application the db goes on a network server and the application is installed/used by 5-6 pc. The speed of the program drops alot as time passes and as is used, speed goes even more down. My problem is that I do not know what is making this change. Is it the server fault, the other pc, the many users, the lack of garbage collector ( other than the one vb does alone ), the existense of the db on the server? Based on the information I give does anyone has a tip on how to increase speed. I dont know how to begun to start fixing it as I do not know where the problem resides. One example of poor performance is the search I do on the program. For the first search I do they are ok then the more I make the slower they get.

Pause Application During SQL Installation?

Oct 11, 2011

My application first checks if an SQL Server is installed before it runs. If there is no server it installs one. Now I want the application to pause or exit during the installation, since its thread may compromise the installation process, or is it not?. How do I do this? The Sleep() mmethod may not help because I can't know how long the installation process would take.

Pause Application VB 2010?

Mar 4, 2012

I want to insert a pause between the display of one control (a button) and the display of another control (a label) on a windows form. Specifically, I want the form to load with the button (and other controls) displayed, then, after a pause of two seconds, the label to display. I have tried timers, and .Sleep() but the effect is not what I want. That is, there is a pause before all of the controls are displayed, and all (including the label) are displayed at one time. I want most of the controls (all except the label) to display normally, then, after a two second pause, I want the label to display (on the same form).

Pause Without Freezing The Application

Dec 23, 2011

I have a loop and within that loop I'm running a Dispatcher Timer.[code]Basically what I want is to show each item in the items list pausing after each on for 5 seconds. I want to show elapsed time in a label and after the elapsed time hits 5 seconds show the next item. This is not possible using the Thred.Sleep method, because it just freezes my application for 5 seconds, and shows the next item without ever updating the label with elapsed time.So what to use instead of Thread.Sleep to not freeze the application and update the label with elapsed time?

Why The Pause Button And Also The Pause Command Does Not Exist In VB 2010 Express

Mar 8, 2010

1) Why the pause button and also the pause command does not exist in VB 2010 Express?

2) I have some solutions under 2010. In 2 or 3, while debugging, I can change instructions without restarting the application. In others, I cannot change anything (Is like readonly), Looking in 'My Applications', Tab 'Debug', Option 'Configuration' I can choose several Options. In the applications I can debug, the default is 'Active (Debug)'; in the others is 'Active (Release)'. If I change the options, the word 'Active' remains attached to the original option.

Pause Application Until Process Finished?

Sep 16, 2009

When a button is clicked,my program gets the list of all Drives on a current computer.Then I use String.Concat to merge the drive letter and the rest of the path.So I get something like: "C:" + "somefoldersomefile.some_extension"That creates a full path to a file I am looking for.Then I check if that file exists.If it doesn't exist,I use Process.Start to run the setup file(to install the program I need).It works well and installs the program I need.I want my application,after the installation is finished,to check again if the program is installed and ofcourse confirm that it is.

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim DriveList As String() = Directory.GetLogicalDrives()
Dim Drive, FullPath, Path1 As String
Dim EmptyDrives As Integer

Why Application Pause Debugging When Hold The Titlebar With Mouse

Sep 17, 2009

I am putting two questions in one thread. I am using VS2008 Pro.

1- Why my application stops running when I 'Click and hold the left mouse button' and resume after releasing the mouse button on Titlebar? i.e. why this happens when I grab the title bar? How can I avoid this so that my application run regardless if the form is moving or title bar is grabbed with mouse while debugging?

2- I want to make one button to pause the whole application then restart the application from the point where it stopped.

Application Runs Slow

Jul 22, 2009

I have designed an application just like it is an Excel table. By changing each textbox the application runs a huge amount of vb code and it takes time.

E.g. you want to enter a three digits number it takes from two to four and sometimes more seconds for ech digit to enter. That`s really embarrassing.

ResGen Causes VERY Slow Build Of .Net Application?

Sep 13, 2010

I have a Vb.Net 2010 solution with two projects and a total of around 500 forms. Until last week compilation of these projects occured in about 30 seconds. Starting a few days ago (without any noticiable change) compilation now takes around 15 minutes! The «culprit» seems to be ResGen.exe: looking at Task Manager this program is using 25% of CPU time while devenv.exe stays idle - no other programs are active. Target CPU is x86 and target Framework is 3.5. The development machine runs Windows 7 Professional and is updated with all regular updates and SPs.

Slow Application And Distorted Sound?

Jun 11, 2011

I've read around that playing WAV files from resources using My.Computer.Audio.Play causes horrid distortion when playing the sound, and I've experienced this myself. I cannot,however, use WaitToComplete, because the sounds are associated with a timer that cannot stop for anything, as it is an official competition timer.Also, I'm having an issue with the application being extremely slow when loading data from an Excel file. Essentially, the program has a grid of labels with transparent backgrounds (which seems to make the speed issue worse). The program uses the MS Office library to pull data from a spreadsheet, then output cells to one label at a time. This unfortunately, causes the application to nearly freeze, which also stops the timer, which as I said above, cannot happen

Dot Matrix Printing Speed Is Very Slow In Application

Jul 5, 2010

I'm asking this question here, in this forum, as I couldn't find MSDN Managed forum for Crystal Reports. And the previously asked questions are unanswered. I've developed an application using VB.NET and Crystal Reports in VS2008. The report generated gets printed correctly on modern laser or inkjet printers. However, the entire formatting gets affected when I print these reports on dot matrix printer. Apart from that. the print speed is very slow. I tried exporting the report to PDF, XLS, DOC and other formats - but no solution. There was Export to Text function, which is not working in Crystal Reports now.

Paint Application Writing Very Slow - Needs To Be Quicker

Jun 29, 2009

I found some code online for a vb paint application and I modified it for my use, which is a signature application. It uses a tablet connected to the pc to write the signature on the screen and then save it as a bitmap for later retrieval.The only issue i am having right now is that if you write on the tablet too fast, the signature gets broken up alot, any way to quicken the paint process in the code so that I can get a smoother signature?

Here is my code:
Imports System
Imports System.Collections
Imports System.Data
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Xml.Serialization

Application Slow Is DB Access/text File Code Ok?

Jan 26, 2012

I noticed that my application is running a bit slow. This is a Windows Service built using VB2010 with SQL Server as a back end. Its main function is to poll a folder looking for a text file. If found it reads the text file and imports the data into SQL Server.

While the slowness could be caused by a number of reasons, I am looking at my code to determine if it could be more efficient. Below I've pasted snippets of code where I initialize the DB connection and execute SQL statements. I've also included a snippet that illustrates how I am processing the text file.

I'd appreciate if the group could have a look at these and let me know if the method that I am using is the most efficient possible. At this time I am also focusing on other probable issues, but I can't rule out the possibility that the code that is in place might be a contributing factor.

Application That Consists Of About 4 Screens - Slow Launch Time

Aug 23, 2010

I have an application that consists of about 4 screens. Screens can be changed by clicking on buttons or via menu item. I use about 16 to 17 tables in all for all 4 screens. I've publised the application and it works fine except that it takes about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes to launch the application using the setup file that I save onto my PC. If I get lucky, a little over a minute is already fast for me. What can I do to help speed up the launch time?

Background Worker In Excel VSTO Application, Modal Dialog Makes BGW Cancellation Slow

Nov 25, 2011

I'm using a background worker to in an Excel VSTO application to throw up a progress dialog box with a status bar and a cancel button to escape from long running calculations. It's working really well, except for one issue. I'd like to use a Modal Dialog, so that the UI behind the dialog gets locked up, instead of a Modeless Dialog. If I use .ShowDialog() instead of .Show(), everything is great until you hit the Cancel button on the form. Following things in the debugger, the cancellation happens, it just takes somewhere in range of 30 seconds. If I use .Show() on my form, then the cancellation occurs immediately as it should.

VS 2008 Proper Way To Pause/resume A Thread?

Oct 6, 2011

I have a thread running on my application that checks a database every so often to decide whether or not to update nodes in a treeview.

Each treeview node represents a document and I have an open button that opens the document for the user.

When the document is opened, I wanted to suspend the thread that refreshes the node list until the document is closed.

I have MyThread.Suspend and MyThread.Resume. But the document viewer is on another thread.

I created functions for suspending/resuming the thread in the application. I have delegates in the viewer to call those functions from another thread. But I'm still getting an Error. "Thread is not user-suspended. Cannot be resumed" or something of the like.

But I realize that Suspend and resume are obsolete functions, so what class or objects should I be looking into and if it didn't take up too much of your time, a small example as well?
