VS 2008 - Using Form2 To Display Informaitonal Messages Without Having The User To Press The OK Button?
Jan 2, 2010
I have an app that I'm using Form2 to display informaitonal messages without having the user to press the OK button. I DIM form2 as a new form as a global and then add a lable to it on the fly and then control it's appearance with a timer. This all works great providing the main form is being displayed however I can't make Form2 show up if the main form is minimized or hidden. I can get around this a bit by keeping the main form maximized but change it's Opacity to zero but once I do that I have no idea how to return the Opacity back to normal when I do want to see the form. Anyone have any ideas on how to make Form2 display if the main from is minimzed or how to control the Opacity of the main form so I can return things to normal? I was thinking that there might be something I could do with hovering over or clicking on the icon in the taskbar but I don't know what that event might be.
just as what i mentioned in above, the problem is i add a new windows form, in which is a database with dataset, in the main form when i press a button. this database form should come out, i used the easiest way like form2.show(), while conforms
Private Sub cmdLancer1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdLancer1.Click
[code]...
So here's the deal... I click Lancer1 button and it displays a randomly generated value into the Textbox1.Then when I clicked Lancer2 it should make so the that first value of text is still present and add another value besides it...
[code]...
But when I press my Lancer2 button it gives a completely weird result and won't display both values seperately... Instead say lancer1 was value of 1 then when i click lancer2 i might get 2 - 5...

I'm trying to create a shortcut for my program that sends the user to the world map of a website with the press of a button, but it isn't working. Here's my code:

i've created a hangman game (Fully working) but since you can only "play" with one phrase (10 letters) it gets boring fast. Basic the current game works by on form load i define the slots (10 string which each hold a letter) and give them there letter. then the user type in a text box and if the textbox = any of the slots then the lbl repasenting that slots changes its text from "_" to the letter.
Anyway what I would like the button to do is when the user presses the start button a random number is generated. The program then looks into a textfile and based on which number is generated it takes a certain line (10 characters per line in a phrase) , moves them into the slots and the game starts. Is that possible to code or it too complicated. The textfile will be in the applications folder (words.txt).
