VS 2008 Merging Statusstrip, Mdi Parent And Childform?
Mar 31, 2009
ive been trying to get statusstrips merging so i can click a label to bring the child form to the front when i have multiple childforms open. I have this code which does work but on closing it leaves the label on the mdiparent and also im struggling with the bring back to front code. i dont want it to open another form just bring it back to front. I have statusstrip set to visible false on my childform. heres some code for merging, this is in mdi parent:-
Private Sub Form1ToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Form1ToolStripMenuItem.Click
[Code]...

I'm trying to accomplish something and not sure it can be done or rather if I'm approaching it correctly. Is there a way to access a MDI Parent's menustrip without merging the childform into it? I've done the merge before and that works fine. Reason I'm trying to figure this out is that I've started toying with a windows ribbon control and am wondering how the menu functions are performed with this control. In other words you wouldn't create one on each child form and have some how merge them so there must be a way to do this from the parent control.
Things I've tried thus far are to create a public sub in the childform that will save the data to a database. Once the save button is clicked in the mdi parent's menustrip and determines the activechild it will then call that sub procedure on the childform. However it doesn't persist the data, in other words passes a whole lot of nothing to the database even though the values don't dissappear on the child form.

The Parent has a Tool Strip and on the tool strip is a button that when clicked loads the child, this works fine.But when I set the child form to maximize its title-bar jumps over the Parent tool strip. Pushing it down a bit. I do what this. I would like the child to be completely contained within the Parent including the Parent forms tool strip.

I lost the code to a program I made quite a while back so I was wondering if any one could help.I have a list box which has file locations loaded into it by the user..After they are loaded they click the merge button and it joins all the files loaded into the listbox into 1 exe..I have this code I upgraded from vb6. I think it is joining the files but only the first one in the list is opening when i run the new exe that is made when they are merged..[code]

I want to do several simple tasks. Doing each separately is easy but when I put them together I don't know what to do. For one thing to work all the code must be changed and everything else doesn't work. I want to:
1. Plot a graph of data from a DAQ. I can do this by using a Timer1_tick method and displaying the data on the linegraph as long as the timer is turned on. I've decided to stick with this method of acquisition. I want to acquire data for long periods of time (perhaps 3 hours) so a timer is pretty good. No problems here.
2. Apply a filter to remove noise from the plot dynamically as the data comes in so that I get a smooth curve instead of a jagged graph. I know I can do this with for loops if I'm using an array. But how do I do it since I'm using a timer? Here the problem begins.
3. Log every piece of the filtered data that the timer is getting to be exported to a CSV file. I learned how to do this with do loops but not with a timer or array. But I really need to use the timer this time.
4. Acquire statistics for the data like maximum value, minimum value, and average value dynamically as the data changes. I know how to do this with an array of data after all the data is acquired. But How do I do this with a timer while the data is still being collected?
5. Monitor the data coming in to execute an alarm (Or event, like stopping the acquisition) when the data coming in has plateaued and is constant (eg: The voltage I'm monitoring starts to become constant and becomes one constant value) - Ok I don't know anything about this.
6. Execute a mathematical operation on the data that has been acquired (post acquisition) like finding gradients and such. Basically this means "How do I now manipulate the data I have and where is this data stored?"
7. Know any good free linegraphs with autoscaling?
Here's my starting code that gathers data with a timer. How do I work from here?:
Private Sub Form1_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
Timer1.Enabled = False
[Code].....

This is my first post as I don't like to ask questions without making sure I've exhausted all other means. I'm new to VB2008 and programming in general but I'm learning. I want to do several simple tasks. Doing each separately is easy but when I put them together I don't know what to do. For one thing to work all the code must be changed and everything else doesn't work.

in An MDI form , i make a childform with textboxes. these textboxes are produced by the code, like this:
For i As Integer = 0 To number Step 1
Dim TextBox As New TextBox
ChildForm.Controls.Add(TextBox)
[Code]....
In another sub within the MDI class i want to read the data from the textboxes, but got an error that says txtBox1 is not a member of 'WindowsApplication1.Form1'.This is true because they do not exist yet. How can i handle this? I think it has something to do with "delegate and invoke", but this seems to be hard to understand.

I'm coding a Windows Forms App that has a StatusStrip that displays status informations to the user, and hints when the mouse is over relevant things. However, when the program is on it's minimal window size, the text sometimes is bigger than the whole StatusStrip, and the label simply dissapears. There must be a workaround to this, ideally I'd like it to auto ellipsis when the text is bigger than the window allows. But how?

when I starded to "finish" my appliaction. The whole MenuStrip and StatusStrip have disappeared!
This wasn't the first time when I lost menu but this time I have made so big work for it so I really dont want to start again as I did last time...
I read another thread but I didn't get my problem solved. I think I lost my menu after I deleted "loading.png" image from resources. I'm not sure does this cause the problem but I think so.
I have all the codes in form1.vb and in form1.designer.vb in looks that:

Is there any hope to get menu and statusstrip back? :( Or is there any fast way to rebuild them if I have all the codes ready? This was almost finished... now it doesnt look finished at all.

Base form baseForm generate an array of childForm (3 fo them). I have one event handler in baseForm which is called when user close each childForm. The problem is that this event handler is only called when the last childForm is closed. When other childForm is closed, the event handler doesn't do anything.
