There was some confusion when my users were testing my code over what version they were running. We have a root directory that the exe is run from. Under that root I have folders like V3.1, and V3.2. All they have to do is look in the sub-folders and match the exe time stamp with what is in the root to know what they are running, yet this was confusing to them. The version is in the caption of the main form, too, but sometimes they didn't pay attention. So I needed a better way. I coded a splash screen which displays for 5 seconds and announces the version.
The problem is that while this works fine on my PC, I can't get it to work on the test machine that they run the exe from. It works for me from VS, and it works from my C: drive if I click the exe that is in my VS bindebug folder. What happens on the test machine is nothing. You don't see the splash screen but you don't get an errror either.
I'm doing a job in background (another thread) and do not know its progress, so I can't put values in progress bar. I'm looking for a progressbar that is just 'walking' from left to right and vice versa, until the job is finished (Microsoft uses it sometimes). Where can I find that progress bar?
View 2 RepliesI have a form with an Adobe PDF reader control.I point to a specific PDF I want to load when a button is clicked. The PDF is 28 Megs big and takes some time to load into the reader.I would like a progress bar to to show (like a showdialog kind of thing) so the user does not click all over the place and thinks the app is static.I have searched and read all about the progressbar and there are many articles dealing with downloading and moving files around but nothing in terms of file loading and how to get a progressbar to reflect the status of the file being loaded.[code]
How would I update the progressbar1 control to reflect the time it takes to load? I checked the AxAcroPDFLib Namespace and found no "progresschange" type of functions or events.Can some one please help a new guy out? I am fairly new to vb.net so please be as specific as possible.
