VS 2008 TextBox Updates Too Slow?
Jul 27, 2009
here is part of the code i am working with at the moment:
Public Sub runbar(ByVal time As Integer)
sleep(2)
Dim i As Integer
i = 0
ProgressBar1.Maximum = time
[Code]...
The problem is that when i click the button to run this, it does the runbar animation BEFORE it updates the text box. I have even tried putting a loop around the TextBox1.Text = obj to see if that would force it to work, but it did not. I would like to know if there is anyway to get the text to update before the runbar animation runs, just seams weird as i have the text editing first lol.

In the following code, TextBox5 reports conditions while the mouse is moving over the form, and TextBox7 reports only when the mouse has STOPPED moving over the form. When I start the program, and move the mouse from outside the form, onto the form and don't stop the mouse, the coords continually update in TextBox5 as expected. When I then stop the mouse, TextBox5 clears and TextBox7 reports, "Mouse Hovering", also as expected. Then if I start moving the mouse again, TextBox7 clears, and TextBox5 starts displaying mouse coords again, as expected.

I populate a hash table with the name of a control as the key and the control itself as the value using the following code that loops through my code on start-up:
Private Sub Populate_Hash_Table()
For Each ctrl As Control In Me.Controls
For Each member As Control In ctrl.Controls
[Code]....
This method works effectively, but the only problem is I seem to get a preformance hit as it takes a second to set the current control to false and the new one's visibility to true. What way should I modify my code so that it works more efficiently?

what's the best way to handle the updates to the database.For example i have one datagridview that's binded to a datatable (with two fields, id auto incremented and a varchar). The user can do all the operations Insert, Update, Delete.If i insert one row (only the text) and call the update method to save the changes to the database, and after that remove the same row and call the update method the adapter will throw a exception because it didn't update the datatable with the value of the id. So the best way to do this is always calling the fill method after every update?

Last night 3 updates automatically installed from VS 2008 on my comp KB952241, KB971091 and KB973674 Today intellisence was not working for .net - I uninstalled the updates and everything is, once again, working fine I dont know what update did it ... But I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this - I would rather not have the updates if they stuff things up.
Oh - and before anyone asks - I tried resetting the visual studio settings

I was wondering if there is a way to detect if Windows Updates are currently being installed.The reason is that I have written some software that sends my PC to hibernation if is idle for a specific amount of time, but I do not want this to happen if Windows is in the process of updating.

Is there any way to determine that a system has automatic updates enabled and has the little yellow security center icon indicating that updates are available? I'd like to drop a little service on one of my servers to monitor for that condition but can't find a good resource to get started.

I would like to ask if it is possible to do a multiple records editing by linqtosql method in one click event? What I've been trying to do is to edit all the names in the table which are having the same account number. I was able to edit but only one name has been edited and the rest are not
******************************************************
Private Sub Button2_Click(------------) Handles Button2.Click
Dim accnt As String
accnt = Textbox1.Text
[Code]....
Why is it these codes could only edit records in one datarow? Can you debug the codes to edit all records which are having the same account number after it is being query?if that is possible for you.

I have code similar to the code below that works in other parts of my program. The reason the code below does not work is because the datatable is made up of data from two separate tables. Does anyone know how to make this work for multiple tables? Can I choose what fields to send back and where to send them? This is what fills my datagridview and it works fine.

i seem to have a problem when i try to update a certain record in an Access 2007 Database. I have a small Access 2007 database with 1 table which has 3 Columns and several records. The 3 columns are RecordNumber (Primary Key and it is autonumber), FirstName(text) and LastName(text). What i am trying to do in VB 2008 is implement a search form which when you find a record you can update it. I do not have any problems with the search, but i cannot seem to edit any other record than the first one. For example i search for John which exists, if that record is the 3rd record when i try to edit it whatever changes i make (for example change that to James), the changes i make are made to the first record and not the current one. I tried a lot of things but nothing works, here is my code:

When I tested my code on the computers at school my program ran pretty smoothly, but when i took it home it ran far slower.
My computer is generally about 20 times as powerful as the school ones so naturally I'm a little peeved.

I have been developing an application using Visual Studio/VB and access 07 for my db. On the system I am developing my app. the db is local and the speed of the application is very good when I debug it. As I publish my application the db goes on a network server and the application is installed/used by 5-6 pc. The speed of the program drops alot as time passes and as is used, speed goes even more down. My problem is that I do not know what is making this change. Is it the server fault, the other pc, the many users, the lack of garbage collector ( other than the one vb does alone ), the existense of the db on the server? Based on the information I give does anyone has a tip on how to increase speed. I dont know how to begun to start fixing it as I do not know where the problem resides. One example of poor performance is the search I do on the program. For the first search I do they are ok then the more I make the slower they get.

I am having extremely slow build times in a VB project, in VS 2008 Express. Sometimes it takes as long as 10 mins. It's so bad that I almost want to try re-installing VS 2008 Express. It seems to only occur in the one project.

I am moving a lot of data to MS Excel from my application. I use a conditional statement to choose which Excel page the data is transferred into. Then a For Next statement to divide the data into various areas on the Excel sheet.The first sheet will always work correctly, but on the next conditional statement to chose the next Excel sheet no data transfers when running the program. If I step the program by hand all data all code works fine. I believe I need to pause between the conditional statements but I have been unable to get one to work.In the following code I have been trying to get a pause between to conditional statement to no avail.

I have a weird bug with webclient. I made an app a while ago which uses webclient to download a small thumbnail image.. and I rememeber when I first made it, the first time webclient was used to download the image it always took 15 sec+ to download it, but after the first it always downloaded quickly (in like 1 sec) .. but then the problem went away for me and it always downloaded fine.but now someone else who uses my app is having the slow image download problem apparently around 50% of the time it downloads the thumbnail images. so does anyone know what might be causing this? As I said, I don't have the problem any more on my comp - but I don't know why :s

I think it's because I have a background image. For example when I maximize the program it lags. I mean big software companies have programs that have more pixel images and are much more colorful then my program is but never lag why. AVG has nice look but the program never lag. But the code runs fine so that is a good thing. How can I stop the lag with background image?

For some reason, .NET applications that I've written seem to have issues if they're launched when Windows starts (by being in the Startup folder for instance). An application that can finish in 3/10 of a second if one launches it normally may seriously take 45-90 seconds to finish if it was launched when Windows loads. Even if I just manually wait 30 seconds after login and launch the program, it'll complete virtually instantly while a copy launched at startup is still struggling along, so it isn't just that Windows is still loading...this continues AFTER that finishes and all HDD activity stops.Writing something to disk using an IO.anything goes at about 20KB/s during this event.

I'm using Visual Basic Express 2008 to create an interface with a order database in MS Access 2007 (.accdb file). Everything is fully functional except updating the "Inventory" table is very slow. Updating around 2200 items takes almost 2 minutes and the window will appear as "not responding" for the duration if you click away and come back. Here is the process:1. Tab-delimited text file is picked by user, which includes all inventory items (not just new ones)2. Each line from text is parsed and read into variables (tempSKU, tempItemTitle, etc.)3. Old items are updated and new ones are added. -> This is the bottleneck
I used to have a series of IF statements to check which elements were changed and report them, but that was about 2x as slow. The new code is a little faster but doesn't provide the feedback I liked (update part is commented around):
Private Sub btnImportInv_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) andles btnImportInv.Click
Dim strName As String

I have written a quick 'algorithm' that automatically formats curly brace code in the correct way:[code]It works quite simple, it loops through all the lines and keeps track of the brace count using a counter. The counter will be incremented by 1 if it finds an opening brace, and decremented by 1 if it finds a closing brace.Then, each line is trimmed, and a total of "n" tabs is inserted before the text, where "n" is the brace count as explained above.[code]So my question basically is, how can I avoid having to do the same thing (exchanging lines) twice? I have noticed that the actual exchanging of lines is very slow, so having to do it twice for each closing brace line is simply a very bad design..

I am new to VB.Net, but I can tell you so far I love programming. That said, I'm building a tool basically to parse and display simple plain text log files. I'm hitting one stumbling block that really has me frustrated.
Other tools are able to load huge log files (500MB even) in a number of seconds. My tool, basically hangs loading a file that is maybe 5MB.
I'm using the MyString = StreamReader.ReadToEnd to read the contents into a string, and then RichTextBox1.Text = MyString to display the contents. That said, I really want to display the contents in a datagrid, but there has to be a better way of doing this?
How can I get my application to load larger files and display them faster? What am I doing wrong?

I have some code that is extracting tracked changes from a document. The trouble is its very slow, taking around 60 seconds to capture each tracked change. I originally thought that pagination was slowing down the code (its quite a large word document). However I have turned that off but its made no difference to the speed of the function.
