View 1 RepliesBasically in visual basic 6 I could access word tables in existing templates with the code owordactivedoc.tables(1).select() where owordactivedoc refers to the active word document and tables(1) refers to the first table in the template.Trying the same code in VB 2003 just leads to errors. Secondly how do I access bookmarks or alternatively word variables.Furthermore how do one deploy web.services. For example the current program I am building is for another computer. Simply copying the web service to Inetpubwwwroot dont work because it is not picked up by the Internet Information Services program.

View 1 RepliesIs there a quick and easy way to make a VB.NET user interface for managing the data in a normalized DataSet? I know that is a very subjective question, so let me explain.

Here are some details of that approach:

View 6 RepliesHaving:
<asp:FormView ID="frmEmployee" runat="server">
<EditTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtFirstName" runat="server" />
[code]....
is there a way to reference this control statically, without having to use FindControl?
VB.Net
txtFirstName.Text = "George"
C#
txtFirstName.Text = "George";
I am looking to create several custom controls (PictureBox Derivatives) on during runtime. I've read that the best way is to create template controls that will be created, and duplicate them in the Controls array.
Well, that's all fine and dandy, but what's the best way to store the template? I considered a seperate form with all the templates laid out on it for easy access for my editing, and keeping them out of the user's sight. I also considdered doing a Struct for each template, and smply mirroring values onto the control being created from the Struct to the created control.
I'm looking for ease of development first and foremost, as I'm most likely going to have a vast number of these templates, and keeping the system as simple as possible will eliminate a lot of hair-pulling. After development ease, I'd go for optimisation.
Where and how do I look for to access the default templates of say for e.g a checkbox, so that I can modify few styles in it.

The templates for insert/edit/view are all very similar, so it was mostly cut & paste, and the compiler had no problem that there were controls with the same IDs in the different templates.

I believe one or more versions of VB.Net did away with "default instances" for Forms.
1) Was it in the 2003 or 2005 version(s)?
2) With the more recent 2008 and 2010 verions, is it possible to use a template or
change one of the files in the project so that default Form instances are not created?

View 1 RepliesI am developing an app that will import numeric data and export it to various text files using ascii templates. I am basically converting the template file into a single string, replacing application fields in the string with {0}, {1}, etc... and adding the result into an array that is then passed to the String.Format(str_Template, Params()) to provide the final output. I have set it up so the template will use the standard VB.Net formatting syntax.
A simple template example:
{<prt_Mark>:G} {<prt_Qty>:F2} {<prt_Length>:F2} {<prt_Remarks>:G}

I have my VB.NET exam tomorrow and I have a list of potential questions, and there is this one question I really fail to find a good explanation for. it gives me this function:
Dim x, y as Single
y=2
y=x+10
MsgBox(x)
it returns 0... and I am supposed to explain what that happened. I have tried changing the numbers so it gives a positive number, and then it works properly... I have tried changing the type too, and still 0.
I'm using a masked text box control. It has a property, ValidatingType, that is not available at designtime so it doesn't appear in the properties window of the IDE. The IDE has two drop-downs where you can select an object in your project on the left drop-down and see the associated members on the right drop-down.
My question is: Why, if I select my masked text box control on the left drop-down, don't I see the ValidatingType property on the right drop-down? All the events for the text box appear, why not the property members as well? Perhaps because it only shows properties that I code for an object?
I have an MDI application. Upon starting it, the MDI form is instantiated, then it kicks off a Username/Password log-in form and makes itself invisible(user never sees the MDI form). If the user logs in, the log-in form becomes invisible and the MDI form becomes visible. This works fine, except for one user.When the log-in form comes up, the MDI form is also visible. If he clicks on something, it crashes(certain variables aren't set at that point). If he logs in, however, the log-in goes invisble and everything works fine. This guy is a network admin/IS type and has several versions/hotfixes of the .Net Framework installed. Could that be the problem? Does anyone know what could be causing this problem for this one user and no one else?
