Back in VB6 I used to show again the form (despite being already shown) by MyForm.Show , which resulted i the form being moved to the center , but now it seems this doesn't work anymore ...

View 7 RepliesCenter Screen Sprite Walking?
Apr 27, 2012I have been searching the internet for a few days now, looking for ways to solve my problem, but I can't find anything. What I am trying to do is make my sprite walk. The way I did this was I made multiple GIF's with my characters different movements, but when I try to switch which ones are showing by releasing an arrow key, it does not do anything. Does anyone have a solution for this? My code so far is below, but it only lets me switch to the running GIF and not to the standing one.

Displaying Text To Center Of Screen
Feb 18, 2010I know i've made a few posts previously on this, but none have fully worked. I now have my program doing everything I need it to do, except having the ability to display the text to the centre of the screen. It needs to be able to perform the same functionality it does on the form but without the form being there (e.g. the letter disappearing after being pressed)

[2008] Application Wont Start?
Mar 13, 2009How do I diagnose this?I have an app that I am creating... it has worked fine up till now.Heres what changed from the last build:Took most of images and removed them from resx file and instead added them in folders set to content and copy if newer.Added a RichTextBox Added an XML reader (Imports Imports System.Xml & Imports System.Xml. Serialization)
then just code to load/parse an xml file - and load it into the RTB an color some tags I published it, uploaded it (ClickOnce)tried it on my pc.. worked fine.. updated/ran users are saying the app says "The Application wont start - contact vendor"How on earth do I diagnose what the issue is? any ideas? (I cant get to these peoples computers... i dont know them)EDIT: Seems that it works fine for Vista Users, but not for XP users...? (odd, im on XP and it works fine)Digging around i found an app called dependency walker. Its saying that the DWMAPI.DLL is missing.. seems to point to IE7 needing this on XP?So, if I am thinking right... if the XP users dont have IE7, then the XMLReader breaks it? maybe??

View 10 RepliesProcess.Start To Start An External Command Line Application
Aug 4, 2009I'm using Process.Start to start an external command line application and using the StartInfo.Arguments method to send parameters to the application. I imagine I'll need to use a loop... but I can't figure out exactly how yet.I need to send anywhere from 1 - an infinite number of files names to this application. Each file has to be sent one after the other. So once the first one is done, I need to loop back around and past the second one.I can probably use the Directory.GetFiles method to get all of the files, but I don't know how to assign them.
