View 6 RepliesI created a sign up page for my program using:
Username

How can I save all that info to a file to pull up for later use in the program? All the info was entered into text boxes and at the end of the program I have a button that is named Save Information.
I am developing a VB application using the Visual Studio 2008 IDE. I was making changes to my code using the Quick Replace function when the dialog window stopped displaying. Selection of Quick Find or Quick Replace from the Edit menu, as well as use of shortcut keys (CTL+F and CTL+H) all have the same affect: the IDE loses focus but no dialog windows display. Is this a known issue with an available fix?
View 1 RepliesI have created a class which generates a form in code. I have hooked up the buttons and a text box so that they work. Now, I am trying to hook up the Resize event (and probably will need other events) for this form. How do I do that? If I can understand how to do it for the Resize event, I should be able to apply that to whatever other events I might want to use. I can't just put "Handles frmMyForm.Resize" or "Handles Me.Resize". I get the message "Handles clause requires a WithEvents variable defined in the containing type or one of its base types." This all has been a learning experience.
View 2 RepliesI wish to put the XMLSerializer behind a 'facade' class of mine so that user wont have to supply type info to the constructor. But doing this has a problem. Consider this class:
Class XmlFormatter
Private Shared xs As XmlSerializer
Public Function Deserialize(ByVal serializationStream As Stream) As Object
Dim o As Object = Nothing
[code]....
The problem is that the user of this class cannot use Deserialize without first using Serialize because the XMLSerializer instance is created in Serialize and it is shared. But using Deserialize without this instance will simply return Nothing.
I'm building a class, and i let the user select several options to show or hide some features in another form.In my class i declared an enum with 5 values, and in one of my class constructors i declare an paramarray of the type of the enum.Now i want that when i declare a new object of this type, when the user put the "(" char, a popup/tooltip/intelisense (don't know what to call it), show all the options available. Like in the classes that allready exist in the framework...

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to pass data from the main form to a business class form for calculation.I have 3 types of cars and I can't get the code right to pass that to the business form. It seems correct to me, but obviously, it's not.This is the code for the calculate button, I can't figure out why its telling me that CarSize is not a member of the business form when I have it in the Enum statement at the top. I'm going by what the book says and this appears right according to it.
Dim CarTypeInteger As Integer
'determine the car size from radio buttons
If LuxuryRadioButton.Checked Then
[code]....
In the book it says to specify the class name when declaring the enum on the business form. So to me it looks like it should be -RentalRate.CarSize.Luxury The error I have is 'CarSize' is not a member of the 'ChristiansCarRentals.RentalRate'.

View 4 RepliesI have been trying to solve this for 2 days now, every text book I own and google have been well and truely exhausted and I am still no closer to solving my problems.I have a login facility reading in user info from a main user file. This takes all info into a temp array and then splits usernames into a username file, passwords into a password file and a current score in a score file.
I have the login working fine and everything else in my program works as intended but touching up cosmetic aspects I want to add a Message box after login to say hello and display current score. This works great for the first name in the user file i.e - after login User1 welcome to the game. Your current score is 45 As intended.But the problem arises with any other users, my message comes out as
User2 welcome to the game. Your current score is 55 I do not understand where the random new lines are coming from. I have tried assigning the message as a variable and removing new line using

It may be inaccessible due to its protection level.I have tried MyClass.TextBox1 = Form1.TextBox1 but I get declaration expected.
View 23 RepliesIf you want a instance of an object to be created when a form loads or another class is created, you have two options:
Public class example
private IAmAObject As IAmAObject
public sub new()
[CODE]...
Or like this:
public class example
private IAmAObject as new IAmAObject
public sub new()
[CODE]...
I always use the first one. It's more type work but I think it's neater. How about you people and is there any real difference between the two?

The app i am working on is for creating theme for the iPod touch... It has to deal with LOTS of images (100's potentially) There will be the set of default images, and then the user created replacement images. I started loading all the defaults into a resx file... thinking then I could just pull them out. now that I started setting the default, this sucks! lol the app will do this, on load it will set all the images (variables) to the resx images then when a theme is loaded, it will replace the default with the user image (if the user img exists) otherwise, the default stays. Then the "screen" is drawn to show the user. so, here is just the images to build the wallpaper, dock, and status bar...

View 5 RepliesI have what I am pretty sure is a pretty simple question, but I can't seem to find my answer. I have a whole lot of label's that I click (I use them as buttons) anyway, in the handles ...click sub I want to create a variable that gets the name of the label/button that is clicked. I am sure this must be pretty common but I have searched and have not found a thing.
This is so I can have one handles label1.click, label2.click etc that gets the name of the button and then does what it is suppose to for that particular button. I am using RS-232 strings to control and AV receiver.

I am developing a parental control application containing a feature that logs a user off of the computer after an administratively set period of time. I do not however want the application to continue counting time against the time limit when the user is not active on the computer. EXAMPLE: Child logs on and is active for an hour then leaves computer for 45 minutes to get dinner. The session timer needs to ignore the 45 minutes of inactivity. I have thought of two ways to accomplish this.
1) Use a SystemEvents.SessionSwith event (to detect the Start Menu > Log Off > SwitchUser action), or
2) Use an event which would detect user inactivity in excess of a set time, e.g. 5 minutes (similar to a screensaver).
Either event would call a method which would simulate a pause feature (as StopWatch and Timer have no pause support that I know of). I believe the 2nd option would prove to be more universally affective as 1) some users do not have Fast User Switching enabled, and 2) users would be required to manually switch users in order to prevent their inactive time from counting against them. My problem arises when I attempt to implement one of these methods. According to the IntelliSense error checking engine, I have absolutely no clue how to do either of these tasks in spite of the research I have conducted on the topic. I would prefer to go with the system idle time approach.
