VS 2008 PreviewKeyDown Event?
Mar 22, 2012
Below is code I have written to capture when the tab key is pressed inside of a two-column data grid view. The only problem I'm having is that I have to press the tab key twice for this event to fire. Would anybody know why this is.
Private Sub dgvCustomerIncludes_PreviewKeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PreviewKeyDownEventArgs) Handles dgvCustomerIncludes.PreviewKeyDown
If e.KeyValue = 9 Then For X As Integer = 0 To (dgvCustomerIncludes.Rows.Count - 1)
If Not Trim(dgvCustomerIncludes.Rows(X).Cells(0).Value) = "" And Trim(dgvCustomerIncludes.Rows(X).Cells(1).Value) = "" Then

We have a winform application using Oracle DataAccessClient.There is a gridview and textboxes where we when we click on a row we can populate the textboxes to show more of the data so the user does not have to scroll horizontally.The code that does this is in the cell click event. We want to also do this if the user presses the up or down arrow. We put the code in the PreviewKeyDown event but we are getting the row that had the focus rather than the row that has the current arrow pointing to it. We searched the web at a lot of forums but we can not seem to locate how to do it. How do we move the focus to the row the arrow is pointing to in the grid? [code]

In VB6 we had a code inside textBox_MouseUp to call textBox_KeyUp(-1, 0) and the signature of KeyUp was
Private Sub textBox_KeyUp(ByRef KeyCode As Short, ByRef Shift As Short) Handles textBox.KeyUp
Now when I migrate to .NET I changed the KeyUp event to Private Sub textBox_KeyUp(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles textBox.KeyUp
How can I do this call textBox_KeyUp(-1,0) now from textBox_MouseUp event?

I have created a simple framework for a Windows service in VB.NET Express 2008. It enables a timer which then writes to the event log every 6 seconds until the service is stopped. This works fine. I adapted that framework into something further. It is using Windows sockets. Well, I haven't finished that part yet and I just want it to write to the event log successfully but I can't even get it to do that now. I am trying to write an event in the OnStart event. The service is being started successfully, according to the standard event log, but my custom events are not getting there. I don't understand why as I am using the same code for that as I was before.

Say you've got a form, Form1, and you're in the Paint event. Is there a way to test to see if, say, the Resize event is occurring from within the Paint event?

is it allowed to use more than one Sub to handle the same event ? For example , may I have 2 separate subs to handle the Load event of a form ? Will they fight each other ?I have tested it and it seems to work fine , nevertheless I thought I'd ask you . In case you wonder , there is no great deal , I just want to copy the same lines of code in more forms so I am doing it just in favor of the looking aspect .

I've read thru Iceplug's tutorial on control arrays and got it working. I tried to add a new event by basically copying his click event code and calling it a doubleclick event. I used the proper addhandler and assigned the correct name to my sub. I have the click event changing the background color to blue and the doubleclick event changing the background color to green. The background color does not change to green. Why?
Heres the tutorial with my new code encased in asterisks ...
Code:

I'm trying to validate a few things in a form I'm building. It has a datagrid with clients info (taken from an access database) and a few textboxes where the user can type some search criteria. The thing is that those same textboxes are used to add new clients to the database and to modify a client's information if one from the datagrid is selected, so I made it that the buttons to insert and modify clients are disabled on load and thenevery time the text on a textbox changes ("TextChanged" event) they become enabled. So far so good. But then I wanted to make it so when a client from the datagrid is selected both buttons become disabled again until the text on a textbox changes (to make sure they're adding a different client and not the same one that was
selected).
I tried using the CellClick event from the datagrid to disable the buttons, but since every time a client is selected from the datagrid the info is shown on the textboxes, this triggers the TextChanged event too, and the buttons become available.So, is there a way I can tell the TextChanged event not to be triggered when the CellClick event occurs?

this event works ok, but the problem is that I don't know what field was clicked. Should I use objectinfo or something else? VB.net won't recognize for example e.objectinfo.

windows service app I am developing to audit events in the Windows Security Event Log. I am using the EventLog class to read entries from the "Security" event log. I have set the log to raise events when an entry is written so I can parse the data. Here is where my problem comes in. If I run the service on Windows 2003 I can get all the data I need from each entry, but when installed on Server 2008 the EventLogEntry ".message" property comes back with useless data like this, "The description for Event ID '4738' in Source 'Microsoft-Windows-Security-Auditing' cannot be found." Under Server 2003 the message property has good data. Using the Event Log Viewer in Server 2008 I can see that it is rendering the correct data, but I am having a heak of a time doing the same. The "replacementStrings" property has the corresponding data that I need, but it appears to involve some other steps to get the data localized to the event provider, but I do not know how to do that.
I also checked the registry HKLMSystemCurrentControlSetServicesEventlogSecuritySecurity on both the 2003 servers and 2008 servers. They are identical execpt the 2003 has an entry the 2008 server does not:
String Type: GuidMessageFile
Value: %systemroot%system32NtMarta.dll

If e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter Then
Works ok for single line. Does however insert a blank line above current text and cursor is at start of second line containing text.

I have a dataset and am committing changes to the database using tableadaptermanager.updateall. My datatable has a column called DateAddedToDB. When saving to the db, some records will have this column filled in, some won't. I want to use linq to update this column on each record that is null to a value of now() but am not sure what event to use. Is there an event like BeforeCommit or something like that? Or is my way of doing this completely inefficient and there's a much better way of doing this?

I am trying to include some custom events/methods when I Check a ListViewItem. I have my Class and Inherited the ListViewItem, but can not figure out how I can achieve this. I have looked at adding custom event handlers, but don't think that this is an option. [Code]. Essentially what I want is an eventhandler that fires whenever the Checkstate of the listviewitem changes.

I have two forms, A and B. A shows B modally. B can exit normally, or can exit because of an exception. Therefore, I have this code in a method in A:
Dim nf as New B
Try
nf.ShowDialog
Catch ex as Exception
'Whatever
End Try
Now, B has some event handlers that handle an event that is raised when a certain value changes. I just found out that if B exits because of an exception, rather than a normal exit, the event handlers are still hooked up. To figure this out, I added a private string variable, and in the constructor of B I added a line to put a GUID.NewGuid.ToString into the variable. When I run this, I can pause in the event handlers I mentioned earlier, and look at the private variable to tell which instance of B is actually handling the event.
Under normal operations, there is only one instance of B. However, if B exits due to an exception, I find that the instance of B which died due to the exception, handles the event before the new instance of B is even created. At a slightly later date, the user presses a button that will cause the event, and, due to something hard to explain, the event gets raised six times, three each from the old, undead, instance of B, and three times from the new, visible, instance of B.
I think that the entire problem I am having is that the event handler is triggering things that cause the two instances to pinball events back and forth between the two of them in a complex recursion. My problem is how to get rid of that undead instance of B so that it stops handling the events that are raised. I tried putting nf.Dispose in the Catch handler of the above snippet, but that did nothing.

I'm using custom events activation/desactivation in one of my class. Let's say :
AddHandler trv_treeview.BeforeExpand, AddressOf sub_LoadNextLevel
and
RemoveHandler trv_treeview.BeforeExpand, AddressOf sub_LoadNextLevel
In another part of the code, I now need to know "Is there an event attached or not". In my search I found that Vb hold an hidden private variable <Eventname>Event. I've tried trv_treeview.BeforeExpandEvent but with no success. How is it possible, in Vb, to check how many Events are already attached to a method?

I am working on a app that will monitor the registry for changes to [ProviderOrder] in [SYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlNetworkProviderOrder].
I have it 90% done with this
Imports System.Management
Imports Microsoft.Win32
Module Module1
Dim Watcher As ManagementEventWatcher
Dim Hive As RegistryKey = Registry.LocalMachine
[Code] .....
If I change [ProviderOrder.test] the app tells me the value was changed and corrects it. But it does the correction twice (because of UpdateProviderOrder changing the value). I thought that using RemoveHandler and AddHandler would take of that.

I am having a problem catching the event that happens when a user selects a value from a combobox. What I was using was ValueMemberChanged, but because I am populating the combobox in code during runtime using SQL and a dataadapter and dataset, this also executes the ValueMemberChanged event, so that makes it difficult for me to know when the user actually changed the value.

I have roughly 20 text boxes on my form,When you press tab, it naturally selects all text in the box (highlighted in blue), so you can press any key, and it replaces it with that,That result is what I want, unfortunately, if you click into the text box, and tab back to it, it no longer selects all the text.I'm wondering how I can detect the tab event properly,I've tried adding a 'KeyDown' event to each text box, and then selecting the text, but the sub never runs, also tried detecting the tab event in my Main Form, thinking that perhaps the parent handles it and will receive that event, but.. No.I've thought of using an event like 'Activated' however, it will also run when the mouse is clicked.
