I have the following code running in a thread to enumerate the local machines in the active directory. This takes some time to complete (about 5-10 seconds) so if the user quits the application before the enum is complete the application takes 5-10 seconds to quit. I tried thread.abort but because it is waiting for For Each SubChildEntry In SubParentEntry.Children to complete it doesn't abort until this returns.
Dim childEntry As DirectoryEntry = Nothing
Dim ParentEntry As New DirectoryEntry
ParentEntry.Path = "WinNT:"

Alright, so I'm still working on the slot machine. I have three timers all independently going for my three "wheels" of the slot machine.
My issue, is that I'm trying to make a Stop button to stop each timer one at a time, and I'm not understanding why this code isn't working. The logic completely makes sense, and the first "wheel" stops when I click the button, however, it doesnt appear to stop the other two timers.
CODE:
I created a form and have the variable inputs for 4 motor run statements. Then with a start button the script starts and it is surrounded by a for next statement to loop 10 times. It works fine but if i need to stop the execution of the script with a stop button. I put the stop in a new section but of course does not work to do a motor stop. It just causes the exe to not respond till the loop is complete. Just need to be able to stop the Run1_Click button section.
Edit:I do not mind if it finishes the 4 motor run commands and then stops execution of the loop. So need to figure out a way to trigger a stop from a button on the form to stop the cycle. For the future the loop will be a variable integer input so 10 will not be the standard.
Edit::Does a ' Do ' statement sound like the thing to use? If so how and where would I place that? Have a Stop button on the form and it would stop after the 4th motor run command.

View 11 RepliesThe following procedures sorts a listview column based on what the tag is, 'Numeric', 'String' or 'Date'. When you click on the column header the sort procedure kicks in. On the first click it will sort ascending and on the second click it will sort descending.
My problem is that when I click a second time it won't sort descending but re-sorts ascending again.It appears when the sortorder is passed to the ListViewColumnSorter.vb classes it changes back to ascending even though it's called as descending. I've bolded the offending variables using a Numeric search.Now here's the really iritaing thing, I have exactly the same code in another application and it works perfectly?
