I've got a program and what I need is for a Timer (running in a different thread) to constantly be checking a TextBox for an entry that is similar to:Quote"(PlayerName)" has joined the server.Where (PlayerName) would be replaced with the players name in the TextBox. What I would need the TextBox to do after it has found this entry is to add (PlayerName) to a listbox. If someone can help me out this far then I can use the same code to get it to remove the player when they leave.Below is a picture of what it should look like inside the program.
I have a security timer to check if the directory exists which I want to access after it's been created by an external application, but what I have done doesn't seem to be the solution although it sounds like a very normal solution to me.
What I have done: 1) External application gets run which is going to create the directory 2) I set the variables to make the timer able to know what to check 3) My application needs to wait till the boolean variable gets set to true, so I put it in a
While: vb.net 'Non existing files protection While (Not bDirectoryExists) If bDirectoryExists Then Exit While 'In case it got created in the meanwhile End If If Not tmrFileCheck.Enabled Then tmrFileCheck.Enabled = True End If End While
4) In my logic, the application should go out of the while now because the variable is set to true, and the code moves on, which never happens..
Quick question - if I have a timer set to 5000 (5 seconds) and the code in the timer takes longer than 5 seconds to run because of sql stuff, will the timer wait until the code is done till it fires again?
I'm doing a job in background (another thread) and do not know its progress, so I can't put values in progress bar. I'm looking for a progressbar that is just 'walking' from left to right and vice versa, until the job is finished (Microsoft uses it sometimes). Where can I find that progress bar?
I have a form with an Adobe PDF reader control.I point to a specific PDF I want to load when a button is clicked. The PDF is 28 Megs big and takes some time to load into the reader.I would like a progress bar to to show (like a showdialog kind of thing) so the user does not click all over the place and thinks the app is static.I have searched and read all about the progressbar and there are many articles dealing with downloading and moving files around but nothing in terms of file loading and how to get a progressbar to reflect the status of the file being loaded.[code]
How would I update the progressbar1 control to reflect the time it takes to load? I checked the AxAcroPDFLib Namespace and found no "progresschange" type of functions or events.Can some one please help a new guy out? I am fairly new to vb.net so please be as specific as possible.

I am making a CSV/TXT file splitter. Upon selecting the file in openfile dialog, I have a function to count the number of lines in the file. I would LOVE to have a progress bar alongside it. Problem is, the maximum value (i.e number of lines in text file) will obviously be varied in different files. Anyway, I could I a progress bar for such a task?
Perhaps this is nothing weird, but it is in my eyes. After loading the webpage I want to hide the progressbar on my ParentPage, but it keeps coming back. Here's an example of my
i have me a database (.sdf) which loads its records into a listview. One of the database, due its size, takes some time before everything is loaded. I'm using cursor.wait atm, but it I guess there's a more professional approach.
How do I show a progressbar while loading the data?
Here's a small piece of the code I use to load the data:
I am trying to use the background worker to keep my application responsive during the calculations it does. All I need is one to calculate and the other to count time which I use a timer for. But when I try to use a progress bar as well as I want to see the progress it gives me an InvalidOperationException: Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'ProgressBar1' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on. I need this to work, how could I use a component from outside the background worker? This is the background worker bit:

I'm writing a program that retrieves certain lines from a textfile. This textfile is rather large, so is it possible to have a progressbar that shows the progress when it retrieves?
Is there something wrong with the progressbar control? I can�t seem to change some simple properties, like the background color. It still looks like it always did. White with gradient "squares". I would like to change the background color.
