IDE :: Any Way To Change Default Properties For Different Objects?
Mar 8, 2012Is it possible to change the default properties for different objects in the VB6 IDE (I'm sure any version would be similar, but this is the one we are currently using in my programming class in school). For example, is there anyway that automatically, when I create a Label, that it could already have AutoSize set to false, and BorderStyle to Fixed3D, etc.? I feel as if it would work greatly with the amount of time taken to layout my programs.

May 28, 2011I had a problem with ToolTips for Tool Bar controls, and it was solved. However, be fore I learned to use the ToolTips control from the Toolbox, I had filled in the ToolTipText in theProperties. Now, I cannot delete it. When I attempt to delete the property it comes right back when the mouse cursor leaves the property.. As a result, when I run the program and roll the mouse over theToolStrip Buttton I get the ToolTip I want and the ToolTip I tried to delete.

VS 2008 Change Default Naming Of New Controls
Nov 24, 2011I was just wondering is there a way to change the default name when you add a new control? I like to name my controls btnSomething etc... and if i could change the default names of added buttons from Button1, Button2 etc to btn1, btn2 etc.It will save me time when renaming.(Same applies for toolstripmenuitem buttons)Actually what would be ideal is if when i add a button, i directly go to the input for Text, and when i change that for the first time (like with toolstripmenuitems) the name changes according to the text (e.g. when you add a toolstripmenuitem in a context menu strip, if you set the text to "Reset" the name becomes ResetToolStripMenuItem. It would be awesome if i could make it automatically name to btnReset for buttons and tsmReset for toolstripmenuitems.)If there is a way to do this, even a difficult and not exactly pretty one involving macros and an input box, i would like to know

Change ToolTip Text For Button?
Mar 17, 2010I've been trying to work out how to change the text of a tooltip in VB .NET 2005 Express, and have read posts like this: [URL]but that doesn't helped me, because I already have a ToolTip control on my form, but I still can't see any properties for my btnJoin button in Intellisense (I've been looking for btnJoin.Tool..., but not a sausage). I can see a "Tooltip on Tooltip" property in the properties window of the btnJoin button, and that allows me to assign tooltip text at compile time, but I want to change the tooltip text at runtime with code.
See attached ScreenShot1.png of the relevant items.
how I can do this, and what property name I can use to change the tooltip text for btnJoin?

Change The Default Modifier From Friend To Private In The Windows Forms Designer In VS 2008?
Jul 2, 2010When I develop a Windows Forms app in Visual Studio using C#, every control that I add to my form is by default marked as private, which is what I want.
When using VB.NET, every control is by default marked as Friend (the equivalent of internal in C#), which is not what I want.
Can I just change this default? It seems like surely it's a setting somewhere.

VS 2008 DataGridViews And Validations?
Aug 30, 2011I have 2 forms (form1 and form2). I'm passing 2 numbers from form2 to form1 (see image/attachment). I want to make sure that 1 of those 2 numbers (passed from form2) aren't the same as any number on form1 in column2. For example, if I were to pass the numbers "2, and 3", the program should give an error saying, there is already 3 in column2. It doesn't matter if the first number (in column1) is the same, but the second number should NOT be a duplicate of any number in column2.
View 7 RepliesVS 2008 Datasets And Datagridviews?
May 23, 2010I am novice at best with VB. I have a dataset built from a complex query. Well I have a lot more items in the dataset than I wish to show in a datagridview. Some items will be used for other purposes at the time, filling txt boxes, dropdowns, etc...all independent of the dgv. I am lost at how to fill just a 3 or 4 of the items rather than just filling the entire thing. So, instead of just filling the entire ds into the grid, how would I fill in selected columns into the datagrid that has specifically named columns at runtime?
View 2 RepliesVS 2008 Columns In 2 DataGridViews On Same Form Cannot Have Same Name?
Jun 26, 2009I discovered a problem in C# (boo hiss!!!) but it applies to VB.NET as well.I decided to build a little app to load info from some audio files using Taglib-sharp (nice little thing it is!) and create a Winamp playlist from the loaded files. (I know it's lame, don't laugh! I just wanted to learn some C#!)I have a form with 2 DataGridViews. I load the first dgv with some tag info from the selected files. I then move those files from 1 grid to the other, shuffling their positions along the way.The annoyance I found is during form design. If I try and name a column in the second DGV the same as in the first (eg. "Filename") I get an error that says the name is already in use by another component.To me this is not right. The column is part of a separate object, shouldn't this mean that "Filename" in object1 isn't the same as "Filename" in object2? I even have to refer to the specific object to get the column's value in a row. [code] to access the column's value in the first row of dgvMine or dgvOther, then why does the darn designer care if "Filename" exists in dgvMine and also in dgvOther? Shouldn't they be separate declarations "within" each of dgvMine and dgvOther?

View 3 RepliesHide All The Default Properties Of UserControl?
Nov 27, 2010Is there any simple way to hide all the design time properties of a User Control.
When my UC is on a form there's a lot of properties in the properties explorer. All those default ones that every UC has. AccessibleName, AccessibleRole, Anchor etc etc etc (dozens of the them)
Any way to hide most/all those and just expose my own ?
I suppose I want my User Control to be more like a 'Component' like the Timer and other components that don't have a UI. Short of rewriting my UC as a Component is there any quick way to hide all those form properties ?
VS 2008 Drag/Drop Between Two DataBound DataGridViews?
Mar 19, 2010I have an MDI application that shows MDI forms with a single DataGridView on each form. The grid is bound to a List(Of Item), where Item is some class. Now I need to be able to drag (possibly multiple) items from one grid (in one form) to another grid (in another form).
Unfortunately, I know nothing about DataGridViews and even less about drag and drop, so this is turning into a real pain for me...I have been looking at examples for ages, but none of them work for me. Most of them don't deal with databound items, others don't seem to work at all, and yet others can only deal with a single row at a time (pretty useless for me).
This must be something that people need a lot, so I can't understand why the examples are so 'bad'.

View 3 RepliesWhy Do C# Automatic Properties Not Support Default Values
Apr 13, 2010Looking at the new VB 2010 features, I stumbled upon support for Auto-Implemented Properties.Since I'm working with C#, this seemed quite familiar, but I noticed that VB did add a feature I would love to have in C#: setting a arbitrary default value for the auto-implemented property:I really like the clean usage of auto-properties in C#. This would save us the effort of introducing a backing field and hooking it up to the property everytime we simply need a default value, thereby cluttering up the code unnecessarily.I was wondering why this wasn't introduced in C# as well? What could be the rationale for not doing this? Is a syntax discussion going on, or are there technical limitations to implementing this?
