I have a project with about 30 forms and each form has about 30 labels from DotNeBar (its a controls suite). If in the future I decide to change that suit for other, how can I replace the DotNetBar labels with the ones of the new suite? In other words, how can I replace a bunch of controls for others automatically?

View 2 RepliesI find that 98% of the time, any work I do with a Control on a From, I do within the form's class. Visual Studio automatically declares all of those controls as Friend, but there really isn't a need.Is there a way to have Visual Studio automatically declare all controls as Private and I can expose any controls as Friend as needed?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to think of a regex replace to replace double quotes with nothing. Example:
hello("hi there") would become hello(hi there)
"hi" would become hi
"example "3" would become example "3
-edit Maybe an easier way to explain this is, replace all " that do not have a backslash before them.
Is there any way in c# or VB to automatically move the controls in a panel when the window is resized. I do not want the Anchor property, which only resizes the control. THe use is that controls are added at runtime to the form, and when the locations/values are loaded on a computer with a larger monitor, they are in the incorrect positions.

View 3 RepliesIn the early generations of VB.NET visual studio, I used to see an automatically generated region named "Windows Form Designer generated code" that includes the code that generates the controls at the surface of a form. But what happened with VS 2008, I can't see that region any more ? Where are the lines of code that are automatically generated that create controls and set there properties ?????

View 2 RepliesI am rather irritated at this. I have no clue why looping through controls on a form and in groupboxes leaves out 75% of the controls.
Here's the code I have:
Dim settings As String = ""
Dim gbControl As Control
Dim gbbox As Control
[Code]....
I want to have setting save all settings to an ini file, and not have to reprogram the saving routine when I add a group box or control. At random times, any number of controls can be disabled, checkboxes can be checked and unchecked, radiobuttons can be checked and unchecked. Regardless of the state of the control, I want the control to show up in the loop. But they don't. Only controls that are enabled and only checkboxes that are checked, every other control state is ignored. That's crap, and is definitely not what is needed by any programmer of any type. We're capable of determining if a control is enabled, hidden, checked, visible, and otherwise.
How do I get the controls to be included in the loop regardless of their state?
The file reads in parameters and two of the parameters used to be in Date Format YYYYMMDD but will now permanently be in format YYYY-MM-DD. This change, I believe, is stopping the import of the file from working. I would like to replace the new format YYYY-MM-DD back to YYYYMMDD in the code. If possible I'd also like to see some output so I know that the old format has been replaced with the new format. The code is below. I added the two rows with .replace code in green in expecting that to be enough but it is still not working.

View 2 RepliesI have a bunch of object variables which are all initialised in their declarations such that:

I am trying to filter out all unwanted characters from a string. All I want in the string is letters A-Z, numbers 0-9 as well as comma (,) plus (+) and quotes (").I figured how to do the letters and numbers, but the 3 special characters are giving me a problem. I also tried with the Chr(34) equivelant for the " sign, but no luck, as and " or , messes up the way the code is read. Here�s what I have so far, but it only works for A-Z and 0-9:
STR = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(STR, "[^A-Z, 0-9, Chr(43) ]", "")
How can I specify in my string that I want to replace occurrences of ALL characters and replace them with a specified character? Something like this:
'assuming currentWord is a string that contains any word
_myWord = CurrentWord.Replace("a-z,A-Z", "*")
I am using replace function to replace a character in the file
sw.WriteLine(Regex.Replace(strLine, "\", Chr(13)))
This code is working fine, but now I want to replace two times and I want to use the replace function twice. Something like this, but it is not working . Can anyone tell me how to use Replace function multiple times?
sw.WriteLine(Regex.Replace(strLine, "\", Chr(13)).Replace(strLine, Chr(13), ""))
I'm making a program that uses a rich textbox and when you format the color of the richtextbox I want it to replace all instances of a color except black to have text on both sides of it.Example:If the text color is blue the text would look like this:

Where it says blue text that's where the text is blue. and if the text was red then instead of it saying color=blue, it would say color=red.
say textbox1.text =

View 2 RepliesI have made updates to my programs, including a large update with the fonts on my forms. The only problem is this font is not found on vista or Windows XP and must be downloaded. The program is completely ruined with its looks without it. Is their a way so that both Windows XP and Vista could download these fonts, On startup of the first form, Form Load maybe? Even if the user says that he or she would like to see the program with the fonts? I just don't want to take the many hours i wasted resizing with the new fonts, ect. If it would be easier I could ask the user if they are using Windows XP, Or Vista?
View 10 RepliesI need to automate the installation of 3 different applications and I need a good starting point.
From what I've been reading, APIs seem like the way to go. But, if I can, I'd like to keep it to managed code.
I've checked with the manufacturers to see if they had any available APIs that could allow me to do the automation, but they have none
What do you all think is the best approach? Is there any .NET methods to assist me? Or do I have to go with APIs and unmanaged code?
