I am writing an app that uses a combo box to list file types for a user to select from. Because a complete list of all options is both impossible and wildly unwieldy, I am only providing about 10 common extensions. I want the user to be able to type in their own file extension if the one they need is not listed. the first item in the combo box is empty by default, but during testing when i type something in their to use as my selection, i get the exception "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." pointed at extensionComboBox.SelectedItem.ToString
View 7 RepliesThis 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

View 8 Repliesive been steaming on this one for quite some time. Ive got a program that relies on remote control of the computer, and i need to be able to take a webcam image without the user having to press buttons etc. So far, ive gotten to the point where i can find my webcam, and with the help of a button, start a preview, then take the picture and save it as a jpeg.Problem is, when you press the button to start the preview, another dialog box shows up (not related to my code) prompting me to select a video source..Im confused kus it seems as though the list i find on form_load does nothing at all if when i press the button it prompts me with the same list.Well you can infer from this that i cannot use the btnstart_click(sender, e) on form_load because it opens a dialog that wont close until i press ok, and i already tried to sendkeys enter, it didnt work.anyone have any idea how i can either alter my code, or make new code to take a web cam image, and save it with no user input?

I'm a complete beginner to programming alone, let alone VB.net. What I need to do is encrypt a block of text inputted by a user using a keyword that will also be inputted by the user. This is all to be done using ciphertext, so naturally the user would be informed the keyword can not have any repeating characters. I figure the English alphabet will be predefined in capitals and lowercase, then the keyword will be read character by character, removing those characters from the alphabet array and then appending them to the end of it (to create the new encrypted alphabet). How to read the keyword character by character, and then removing the corresponding letter from the alphabet. The best I can think is to check each character of the keyword against each character of the array which I'm sure is much more work than I need to do.
View 1 RepliesI have a form with multiple panels which hide/show as the user progresses through and inputs data. After they enter data in the first panel, I want a label in the next panel to be equal to one of their inputs. For example, in the first panel they enter their name in Textbox1. They hit next and it hides panel1 and shows panel2. Then I want Label1 in the next panel to be Textbox1 (their name).

Airport Name (ICAO Code)
For Example
Kansas City Intl (KCI);

View 6 RepliesHow to generate code from user input. In Visual Studio 2008, Visual Basic. My script always begins with:
Code:
function Init(Quest)
Then from here a user would input a quest name, type and zone in a interface using windows forms.
Ex:
Code:
RegisterQuest(Quest, "Kill Zombies", "Heritage", "Firestorm")
end
This part a user would enter in his interface what would an NPC say if accepted.
[Code] .....
What I need is a few text boxs that a user can input "Kill Zombies" or whatever they like and when they push a generate button it will create a file with a .quest extension. All of the code remains the same except for the quotes that would be the user input from the interface. Basically everything in quotes can be changed by the user in an interface. I have created my own functions for when a user accepts, deny and complete a quest. The user just needs to input what should happen then click a generate button to throw it all together as a .quest file to be saved in his or her quest folder for the server to call on later.
I also have many other functions like:
AddQuestRewardFaction --- (Quest, Faction ID, Amount)
AddQuestRewardCoin --- (Quest, Copper, Silver, Gold, Plat)
AddQuestStepObtainItem --- (Quest, Step ID, Description, Quantity, Percentage, TaskGroupText, Item ID(s))
Etc
I would also like to have these available on the UI but wont generate unless a user checks a box to add them or there is a box already for them but wont step into the code unless the user enters something into the box.

I cannot figure out how to incorporate the number of days into the input box then get it to loop and count the number of times the User inputs in the number of days. Then I have to incorporate it into the equation to get the total distance D = MPH * Hours. What I have right now wil not count up the number of days and locks up after I input one number and will not add anything to the listbox. Because I also have to make sure that they cant add nonnumaric values and the number of hours per day cannot exceed 20. I have put things in and taken them out but it has been 2 days and I am lost now
