VS 2008 Scrollbar Child Form?
Jul 2, 2009
I have a huge image which I loaded into a picturebox on a Child Form. The problem is that I can't seem to create scrollbars on the Child Form. So... I tried the Webbrowser control. The code I used:
WebBrowser1.Navigate("file:///" & Application.StartupPath.ToString() & "libmap.jpg")Doesn't work somehow. But then again... I'm not sure where to place that particular folder. I tried all the C:UsersRadjeshDocumentsVisual Studio 2008Projectsproject_name.... and subfolders, but I ca't seem to get it right.

In VB 2008, I have a Parent form with a combo box on it. There is a child form also with a combo box on it. I want to be able to change the values on the child form based on what the user selected from the main form. The user launches the child form from a toolbar on the Parent form. The following code is run:
[Code]...
What I want to do is if the Parent's combo box has "Red", "Blue", "Green" values and the user selects "Green", the child form's combo box(With the same values) will also change to "Green". (I do not need to change the Parent form if the child form changes.) I've tried changing the Child's combobox from the combobox's change event on the Parent form, and the code runs, but nothing changes on the child form.

i am having an issue populating two combo boxes on form load. The program will connect to an access database and pull data as instructed. Then as it pulls each record it puts it into the combo box.
This was working.. atleast i think it was. i dont recall it ever not working, however i wasn't looking for it.
My problem is that if when i load the MDI parent form and have it skip the selection form and the login form and load the next form in the sequence, it loads everything perfectly. However if the select form is loaded first, then the login form and then the form i need loaded, it will not populate. The only difference between the two different loads is that the login form calls a function that loads the form as a new project.form
I did this so that I can have multiple forms open at a time. I am assuming my problem is that I need to get the child forms handle then populating controls using that handle? but i think if I had to do that then I would beable to populate the comboboxes on the first form load using the login method of opening the form.
Here's my code.
vb.net
Private Sub frmLine1t5_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Me.Text = "Line " & LineNumber & " Test Form"
[Code].....

I have a MenuStrip with File > New, Open, Save, Exit located in a parent form, and a RichTextBox located in a child form.The problem I'm running into is concerned with the destination of the file elected from "Open" and the save.When a user selects their file from "Open", I need it to open the child form and put the text into the RichTextBox.I also need the program to be able to "Save" from a child form, whether it's been brought up via "New" or "Open".

I've got an MDI vb project with several child forms. Now I want each child to be placed on top of the other open childs when I create it. In simple words, I don't want it to hide behind the other open childs.

So with the stock Textbox, I set the Scrollbars property to Vertical. This is great if the text in my box never changes; I can scroll up and down while the box sits still. If I'm running a background operation that logs output to the box though, the scrollbar resets itself to the top every time I append text to the box.
I know I can set the Textbox.Selection property (or use the Select method) to reposition the carat in the textbox, make note of that position in a variable, then append text, reset the carat, and use the ScrollToCarat method to reposition the scrollbar where it belongs. That's a really (ridiculously) long way around. Anybody know if there's another/better way of holding the scrollbar position, short of actually building a custom control (or using a Textbox and a separate Scrollbar)? It never hurts to try. In a worst case scenario, you'll learn from it.

I'm having trouble with MDI child and a dialog form. The problem details are listed below:
1. One MDI Parent form (Form1) with a button on it (Button1).
2. One Child form of Form1 (name = Form2) with a button (Button2) and a textbox (text_box1).
3. Another form in the project (not child of Form1 and not MDI Parent) with name Form3. This form has also a button on it (Button3).
The application behaviour is as follows: the application starts with Form1. Clicking the Button1 will show Form2. Form2 correctly opened as a MDI child. Clicking the Button2 on the Form2 will show Form3 as dialog (Form3.ShowDialog() ). Clicking the Button3 on the Form3 need to do the magical thing - to set/change the text in the Form2's text_box1.
Tried various examples from this forum. Also followed a lot of examples from net. Nothing works. Tried to create a writable property in the Form2 class but calling it from the Form3 does nothing.
I tried to access the MDIchildren(ss) while ss loops in MDIchildrens array but I don't know how to access the label control inside the Form2 using this technique. Successfully changed the Form2 caption but no controls are available in VB intellisense - practically correct because VB don't know which form from array I'm referring to.

I have an MDI application which uses fixed sized forms. I've started to change the forms to sizeable and anchored the controls so they move when the form is resized. If the child form has a menu this jumps onto the parent menu (as it always has done) but all the controls move up the form at runtime and leave a space at the bottom of the child. If I change the form in design mode to cut through the bottom controls i.e. so the form doesn't appear tall enough, it corrects itself at runtime. Is there another workaround as it looks misleading in the designer.

In my WPF Form1 I have TextBlock1 that fill from AddressTableAdapter. To edit address user must click EditButton to open Form2 to perform changes. My problem is passing data to Form2 from Form1. In Form2 I have 3 TextBoxes Street, City, Zip, and StateComboBox. I try to code in Loaded procedure of Form2 like this and got error message:
Private Sub Form2Detail_Loaded(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs) Handles Me.Loaded
Me.AddressTableAdapter.Fill(Me.AbcDataSet.Address)
Me.StreetTextBox = IIf(IsDBNull(AbcDataSet.Address.StreetColumn), "", AbcDataSet.Address.StreetColumn))
Me.StateComboBox = IIf(IsDBNull(AbcDataSet.Address.StateColumn), 0, AbcDataSet.Address.StateColumn))

I have developed vb.net application and have one main form with isMdiContainer property true. It has one Menustrip control docking on top of the form and StatusStrip docking on bottom of the scrren. When User click on any menu item it opens new form or if already opened, show it. My application allow to open multiple child forms opened at same time and all forms StartPosition is set to CenterScreen. My problem is becuase all forms are in cetenr it ovelaps each other and user wouldn't know which form(menu option) is opend. I would like to see all opened forms in different tabs (like in windows taskbar) in bottom of MDI parent form.

I am having trouble adding a row to a databound datagridview on a parent form from a child form. I have two forms, one contains a datagridview that is bound to a table using 'datagridviewbindingsource' and contains an 'add' button. The second contains a checked listbox that is populated correctly and has a "Cancel" and an 'OK' button - when i check several items in the child form, i would like to hit okay and update the bindingsource of the datagridview on the first form with the checked items.
Code:
in form1 when btnAdd is clicked
dim f2 as new form2
'call it as a dialog to check for the cancel button
f2.ShowDialog()
[Code] .....

I have an MDI Form that contains an MDI Child form. On this child form is a flexgrid. When the user double clicks on a row in the flexgrid this loads another MDI Child form. I have set the following properties on the second child form:
FormBorderStyle = FixedDialog
MaximizeBox = False
MinimizeBox = False
StartPosition = CenterScreen
WindowState = Normal
The problem is that if the first MDI child form is in a maximized state and the user double clicks on the flex grid, the second child form loads in a maximized state too! How can I stop this?

I want a set of child forms to keep their relative sizes and locations to their parent form when parent form is resized. So if one child form is opened and covers the lower right quadrant.. it will remain a quadrant for whatever resize is done on parent form.

In my Windows Form application, i want to change the width of a scrollbar that belongs to a FlowLayoutPanel.
The Scrollbar is added "automatically" since the content of the Flow Layout Panel is larger the Form.
From what I've found on the web, it seems to be tricky.

Would you like to print a form, without borders. I've tried several things but what I can only see in the picture. Also would like to put a scroll bar on the form to work in an A4 format.
