Forms :: OnClick Event Not Triggering 2nd Time Button Is Clicked?
Nov 1, 2011I'm having a strange problem with the OnClick event. In an ArcGIS application using VB.Net, I have a button set up with the following
AddItem("CommandAnalyseResults")
The following module segment contains the OnClick event: Public NotInheritable Class CommandAnalyseResults
Inherits BaseTool <more code...>
Public Overrides Sub OnClick()
[Code]...
The OnClick event gets triggered no problem the first time I click on the button. However if I then close the window the button code creates and then click on the button again, the OnClick code is not triggered.
If I click on a different button then click back on the 'problem' button a 2nd time, it does seem to trigger the code!
Force Close Application - Code Is Executed When A Button Is Clicked
Sep 2, 2011I have a backup script i made in VB. part of the code im having trouble with:
HTML
code:
Now this code is executed when a button is clicked, if the folder does exists, it displays a message and continues the backup. however if it does not it displays displays "does not exist box" then i want the application to close.
I played around with the application.exit commands but it seems like the code just skips over it, and continues to try and backup the data, then errors out. how do i make the application close, if the dir does not exist?
ComboBox Hidden Behind Button Not Triggering On Click Event
Jun 26, 2012I'm converting an old VB form to .NET, and there a few Buttons which each have a corresponding ComboBox hiding behind them. The previous behavior was that you'd click the Button, and that would trigger the ComboBox behind it, which would then drop down a selection list. I believe the idea was to have a static color and text label (which cannot be a selectable option in the drop-down list), with the functionality of a ComboBox.
Now, in VB.NET, clicking on the Button (which is directly over the ComboBox in the form) won't trigger the ComboBox dropdown anymore. However, if I make the ComboBox visible enough to click on, it will trigger the ComboBox.TextChanged event, and show the drop-down (they're set to the DropDownList style). I've set the event handler to handle both that event and the Button event. I've tried Button.MouseDown, Button.MouseClick, and Button.Click -- none of which have worked.
I did find the SplitButton control option suggested here, which would probably do the job, but I don't want to have to integrate a non-native control for just 3 buttons. I don't really want to mess with the control template, either
Dynamically Created Event - Button To Simply Set A String Variable Equal To The Clicked Buttons Text
Mar 14, 2009I have a form that I am adding a set of buttons to. I am adding an event to those buttons. I need this event to function slightly to determine what button was pressed.
I need the button to simply set a string variable equal to the clicked buttons text so I can determine what button was pressed.
How can this be accomplished?

Stop Event From Triggering?
Jun 11, 2011I have a checkbox X1 that if checked it will check a column of checkboxes.What i'm trying to do is if the user unchecks at least one checkbox from the column it will uncheck checkbox X1. But I don't want it to run the event from checkbox X1 again because that will cause the whole column of checkboxes to be unchecked.
View 2 RepliesTriggering An Event At A Certain Time?
Mar 6, 2011I want to make something like an alarm clock. So, I want my programe to trigger a certain event at lets say, 8:00 AM and 16:00 PM.
I was thinking something with timers ticking every second and checking if the time I want is equal to the system time. But....I didn't manage to make it work. So, how do I make this work ?
Prevent The Event From Triggering A Second Time?
May 28, 2011I have a TreeView object on my form, with check boxes. By the way, I'm working with vb.NET. I want it to perform a few different things with the aftercheck event:
If you check a node, check all its children
If you uncheck a node, uncheck the parent node
If you uncheck a node, uncheck all its children
The problem is when you uncheck a node, it unchecks its parent node, which triggers the event again and unchecks all its children.
Would there be a way to prevent the event from triggering a second time? Or will I have to give up on one of those two points?
Here's the code, if it helps any:
If e.Node.Level > 0 Then
If e.Node.Checked = False Then
If e.Node.Parent.Checked = True Then

While I'm at it, is there a way to check if a folder is accessible? I've toyed with FileAttributes, but can't seem to find out how to make it work...
Triggering Basic Event In Other Process?
Mar 31, 2012I need a simple system that allows one process to check if another process is running (I think I can do that fine using Process.getProcessByName or similar) and then trigger an event in that process assuming it is.When I say trigger an event I do not mean that literally. I simply need to trigger a sub in the first process from the second.I know that IPC like this would normally be done with pipes or remoting or something like that but I have no experience with these and am looking for a quick solution, so unless these can be used relatively easily to solve this I am looking for an alternative.

Preventing Event Handlers From Triggering On Form Load?
Nov 25, 2008Using VB 2008 Express I have a form in which a number of controls which have event handlers to monitor choices the user is making. The event handlers do work as expected, but the problem I'm having shows up when I load the form.For example, I have:
Code:
Private Sub RadioButton6_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles RadioButton6.CheckedChanged
MsgBox("I got checked!", MsgBoxStyle.Critical)
End Sub
When I load the form in question from the main form of the program, I get the message box, even though the user hasn't actually clicked the radio box. The problem arises when I try to use a call to a function that works fine, as long as the entire form has loaded. Called prematurely, the function fails.How do I solve this so these event handlers don't trigger when the form is being loaded?
Reset Checkbox Checkstate Without Triggering Checkchanged Event?
Jul 6, 2009I'm trying to reset a form after a game has been played. I used checkboxes to indicate when the user picked a particular line item to update and then flagged the checkbox as checked and disabled.Once all the checkboxes have been checked, the game is over and I want to show a dialog (msgbox) that will allow the user to start a new game or exit the app. To reset the form, I was changing all the checkstates back to unchecked (along with resetting other variables), but the checkchanged events are being triggered and I end up in a loop.Is there a way to change the checkstate without triggering the event?[code]....

View 1 RepliesTriggering Event Handlers When The User Makes An Input Into A Combo Box?
Dec 9, 2011This is a spin-off post from another issue I am working on. The problem is related to triggering event handlers when the user makes an input into a combo box, you might even call this a complaint.I have a combobox with a DataSource and ValueMember and DisplayMember. There is no DataBindings to worry about at this point. The combobox is DropDownStyle = DropDown and I havealso enabled AutoCompleteSource = ListSource and AutoCompleteMode = SuggestAppend.The datasource contains a list of Countires, and when the user types in an entry or chooses an entry from the combobox, I should be able to detect what the user has selected ortyped immediatley after the selection, some would say it's the very purpose of the combo box.Which event would you choose to deterine what the user has entered or Selected? few events come to mind:
SelectedValueChanged
SelectedIndexChanged
Validating

Appdomain.unhandled Exception Event Is Not Always Executed
Jan 5, 2011I have a service application that randomly stops without any errors in my log or in the event application log. I believe that there could be an unhandled exception somewhere in the code so I set up the AppDomain.Unhandled event to catch any exceptions. While trying to induce unhandled exceptions I have found that this event is not always fired. I added the following code to my service's Shared Sub Main method (but I orginally had it in the OnStart method and was seeing mostly the same thing)
Dim currentDomain as AppDomain = AppDomain.CurrentDomain
Add Handler currentDomain.UnhandledException, Address of MyHandler
Form Is Partially Executed Before Form_Load Event
Jul 9, 2009I have a problem concerning the Form_Loading event: When I want to load a new Form (ImageDisplay) the ImageDisplay_Load Event is not executed first.
Instead it runs through the global variables definitions and then executes a Private Sub called numericupdown1_changed.
The numericupdown1 field is part of the form I want to load and has not been touched.
That is my calling sequence:
Private Sub Dispalydata_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Dispalydata.Click
Dim myDisplay As New ImageDisplay
[Code]...
The strange thing is that for other forms in my code it works well and starts with the form_load function.
VS 2008 : Have A Label's Text Recorded Into A Database When Button Is Clicked?
Apr 14, 2009I would like to have a label's text recorded into a database when my button is clicked. I do not yet understand the database connection. I have created the db, and have the following
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim Conn As String = "Provider=Microsoft.SQLSERVER.CE.OLEDB.3.5; Data Source=c: empTestDB.sdf;"
Dim tConnection As New OleDb.OleDbConnection(Conn)
[code]....
When I try to test this the .ExecuteNonQuery() becomes highlighted and says the given type name is unrecognized. My table is setup as table1 and the only 2 columns are datetime and temperature. I want the label text to go to temperature and I would like somehow the time the temperature was taken to go into the datetime field. I had the provider=microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0, but I changed it since I thought this was the one to use.

Feb 12, 2010I am learning how to develop Windows Forms applications with Visual Basic Express 2008, and my testing/learning application has a TabControl with a few test pages (3, for example, the number isn't relevant here).Now, I am handing the MouseClick event on the Tabcontrol, and I can't seem to be able to figure out how to get which tab was clicked on.I believe that the MouseClick event isn't fired if I click on another place of the tab strip, therefore a tab must have been clicked on. The problem is, which was the tab?
