VS 2008 Reload Modal Form

May 18, 2011

I have a form with a browser inside. When loading this form I set the browser.navigate to a url.Now to display this form I used the: form. ShowDialog()to have the form modal (which is what I want).But now when I close this form and reopen it, the browser doesn't refresh (the navigate doesn't start)this is beacuse closing a Showdialog() form doesn't unload it from the memory. To empty the memory I used the.[code]It closes and when reopened it reload the page, but it's not modal anymore and also closing the main form doesn't close this form.So what I would like is to have the form with the browser modal, but every time I load it, it should navigate to the url set.

VS 2008 Non-modal Form To Act Modally?

Aug 17, 2011

All of my forms are MDI children. I have one form that is collecting input parameters for a report. One of the parameters needs to come from another form. For the life of me, I can't get it to work.

[Code]...

I have to message box code just to verify the selection. glbPart is just a hand off parameter to tell the frmVendorList code to come back to this form rather than where it was origianlly programmed to go.I tried a do until glbVendor <> "", but that put me into a death loop and I never got to select a vendor from the vendor list form. Obviously, the easiest would be if I could make frmVendorList Modal, but I can't see how to do that once it's been created modally.

VS 2008 Modal Form Closing Unexpectedly

Dec 18, 2009

I have a modal form that does double duty.When a user wants to add a new object to a database, I open the form blank and they fill it out. When the form closes, all of the data is passed back to my main form and is used to create the new object in the database.When a user wants to edit an existing object, I open the form and pre-populate all of the fields with the object's data.I'm running checks on the form as they edit the fields, only enabling the "OK" button (which will update the database) if the form has actually been changed. If they make a change and then undo it, the "OK" button is reset to Enabled = False.At the bottom of the form are a ComboBox, two buttons and a ListBox. The intent is to allow the user to select an item from the ComboBox and "Add" ("Add" button) to the ListBox, or select an item in the ListBox and "Remove" ("Remove" button) it FROM the ListBox.

This function works fine when the form is loaded blank.When the form is loaded with data, however, (and in the testing I've done, the ListBox has no items in it to start, which is valid), adding an item from the ComboBox to the ListBox causes the Modal form to close with a DialogResult of Cancel.I've tried to trace the source of this issue, but stepping through each line in debug mode gives me no clue as to why this is happening.I COULD remove all of the checks and update the form each time the user presses "OK" (in the case of no changes, the database data would be overwritten with the same data), but that seems kludgy and less elegant. Plus, I'd like this logic to work.

VS 2008 : Modal Form Hide Instead Of Close - Main Form Does Not Close

Mar 20, 2009

I have a main form that has a button with which a smaller form is shown. Think of the smaller form as the Find/Replace dialog in many applications, such as Notepad. It's important that the form is (what I believe is called) modal. What I mean is that it always stays on top of the main form. I ensure that by calling the Show method with "Me" as the owner argument. Whenever the small form loses focus it will not disappear into the background but stay visible (albeit out of focus). If you don't understand open up Notepad and have a look at the behavior of the Find/Replace dialog.

Here's my problem: instead of actually closing the form when the X is pressed, I want it to simply Hide itself, so its position and the state of any controls (checkboxes etc) is preserved automatically.To achieve this I simply cancel the FormClosing event and Hide it:

vb.net
Private Sub Form2_FormClosing(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles MyBase.FormClosing

[code]....

To show the form, I use the following (note the (Me) to make the main form the owner of the form; this ensures that it remains visible even when it is out of focus):

vb.net
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Form2.Show(Me)
End Sub

Now. When I run my project, and open the Form2 (small form), then hide it again (by 'closing' it), I can no longer close the main form (Form1)! It seems the main form cannot close when the small form still exists (albeit invisible)...?? When I don't use the Me argument in the Show method, I don't get the behavior I want. I know I can set the TopMost property to True but that will also cause it to become visible on top of all the other forms, even windows not part of my application.

VS 2005 Child Form Remain Enabled While Modal Form Displayed?

Oct 28, 2010

I have a VB. Net App where I want the user to open a modeless form which contains reference information about items in a select box. If the user double clicks the item selected in the list box a modal form is opened to edit the item.I want the previously opened reference form to remain active/enabled, that is, I want the user to be able to click on it, move it, etc.I was able to get the form to at least show up on the task bar by setting it's "ShowInTaskBar" property to true, however, when it comes to the front the user can still not move it to the side to view all of the Edit Forms information.

Calling Showdialog() On A Form - From The Main Form's OnLoad Event Makes The Modal Dialog Go Away After A Few Seconds?

Aug 7, 2009

I'm having an interesting issue that I can't reproduce on a different project, but can consistently on this one. I have no clue what might be causing it, but am hoping that someone may have seen it before.

I have a main form, from which I run a series of checks. On this form, I have a listview control. Because of some issues with the refreshing of this listview control, I had to create my own messagebox. It's just a form that displays some text ( it also happens to look nicer than MsgBox; in my opinion, anyways ). It's been working great for months, until recently.

My problem is that on my main form's load event, I run this check, which returns an error within a try/catch block. I then call my custom messagebox with a message. It in turns calls it's ShowDialog() function.

In any other situation ( after the main form has been loaded ), I have no problems. The messagebox goes on the screen and behaves appropriately ( ie: waits for my input and acts as a modal dialog ( stops execution of my main form's thread ) ). However, on this onload event, my messagebox comes up and goes away almost immediately afterwards.

I've traced it all the way to the showdialog() call. For no explicable reason, it appears to skip right over this call, without me doing anything on the form.

Here's what the inner trace looks like ( when I put a breakpoint on the onclosing event for this messagebox form ):

Keep Form On Top Of Another Form In Modal Fashion, But Continue Execution?

Apr 18, 2012

I have a form in a vb.net windows form application called PolicyRefreshStatus.vb that has a ProgressBar control on it. From the main form called EditPolicy.vb I need to show PolicyRefreshStatus.vb over top of EditPolicy.vb - but the way things are wired I'm controlling the the ProgressBar and it's steps from logic inside EditPolicy.vbIf I display the PolicyRefreshStatus.vb bar using the .show() method things work fine.The problem is if the user clicks back on the main form then PolicyRefreshStatus.vb losses focus. If I show PolicyRefreshStatus.vb as a modal form using .ShowDialog() then execution halts in EditPolicy.vb after the .ShowDialog() statement.

so for example in the code:
mPolicyRefreshStatus = New PolicyRefreshStatus
mPolicyRefreshStatus.pbMax = mPolicy.ClaimsUpdateMax

Passing Values From Modal Form To Parent Form?

Aug 11, 2011

I am trying to pass information to parent form from modal form in vb.net winforms application.

1.) I created a copy of a form and displayed it using following code.

dim f=new frmParent()
f.show()

2.) Depending on conditions a button on frmParent opens a modal child form and asks for some informations. I used following code for that:

dim f = new ChildForm()
f.showDialog()

Both code works fine. When user press saves in child form i need to close childForm and use the user types values in parent form. I know how to close the childform but not sure how to pass info from childform to parent form.

Any Way To Force Reload Form For Updating?

Jan 31, 2009

Is there a way to force a form to reload itself? The reason I ask is I have a listview that shows the data from my database. You can add information to the database from another form but when you go back to that form the information is not updated because the information updates on the form load. So my question is there a way to just do the form_load event again?

Form Reload And Dispose Off Old DataSet (Array)

Apr 3, 2010

I am using Vb 2008 Express Edition. I have only 1 form with 10+ arrays. My app runs a few calculations and finally plots 2 graphs. The first time I run my program, everything works fine. But when I run my app with a new set of data it gives me the wrong results. Is there a way I can force my form to reload itself and act as if its running for the first time? I know I can do an Application.restart. But I don't want to restart my app every time.
Me.Refresh() doesn't work, as my form still seems to remember my old data set (array)

Saving Form Control Values To Reload Later?

Feb 3, 2010

Basically I have a form which is used for a report, when completed it is then mailed to various mailboxes. I would like the option that if the user cannot complete the form, they can save it & reload the values into the form to use later.Some of the boxes will have quite a lot of text, so using the registry is not an option. I have looked at My.Settings but think this is for application settings not user input such as a lot of text - but I could be wrong.I've looked at freefile & got it to work with text boxes saving to a .dat file, but had a problem in that text appeared in the wrong text boxes so I assume the order was different in the load to what it was in the save?

Have A Modal Form But Be Able To Access Another Already Open Form

Jul 20, 2010

I have designed my app for multiple gridviews. When a user double clicks a row it opens up the data in a modal form and when they commit changes the row gets updated.While they have that modal window open they can not go back to the grid.But I have a alerts/messages window always running (like outlook tasks). As soon as I open the modal window I can not access that tasks window. (Default behaviour)How can I open the modal form and still let the user access/view the tasks window while they work on the modal window.(I tried creating it in a differant thread, but got a lot of cross thread errors so decided to abandon that approach.I thought that 2 modal form can run at the same time as long as they have differant parents. But aparently the main GUI thread pauses as soon as you open a modal window on it.
