I've a problem with accessing to values of added TextBoxes. I'm adding TextBoxes in my application using NumericUpDown control (event of NumericUpDown1_ValueChanged). It' s value is 1 to 10 and by each step it adds 2 new TextBoxes (named TBC11i and TBC12i, i=1-10). I've created a second event (ButtonClick) where I want to use their values in a For Loop named like this:

I added 2 textboxes on the form and runs it...I pressed the enter after I type in simple text.. it will not goto next textbox but tab can do.

Now, my issue is that this works great if you use the mouse and click around in the textboxes. However, if you hit the TAB key to move around on the screen, the LostFocus event doesn't seem to work. All of my textboxes backcolor remains lightblue. What did I do wrong? What do I need to do to fix this problem?
I wrote the following code to create dynamic controls-textboxes and labels.

How can I access the data entered into these textboxes.
I have created a page that creates a number textboxes at runtime depending on the result of a database query, (ie one textbox per row in query result). My problem is that I can't for the life of me work out how on earth to access the text from the textbox that is posted back to the server by the user when they press submit.

I have a program that adds controls on the fly to an auto-scroll panel. When the panel is scrolled (viewing the bottom of the panel for example) and a control is added, it looks like it is added assuming the top left corner of the panel is still at 0,0 when in fact it may be 0,500. To see what I am talking about, create an empty "Windows Forms Application" project and insert the below code into it.

Friend WithEvents btnAdd As System.Windows.Forms.Button
Dim ButtonCount As Integer

I have a datagridview on a form and this shows up my list of suppliers. I have a textbox which when i click shows up the supplier list and from there when i double click on a row, the supplier's name is shown in the textbox. The thing is i have to do same on the same page for search purposes which got its own textbox. But the cell double-click event already contains code that will display it in some other textbox like i mentioned previously. What i thought is to make another form with a datagridview. So this datagridview will be used to display the supplier's name in search textbox. But what if i have to access this form several times. Do i have to create several forms everytime?

My problem is that I have a program which needs to access images for multiple choice questions, hundreds of them. Now when I publish the program it is not taking the images with it. I have read some information by 'kleinma' regarding publishing and he says to right click on the Bin and click include in project, but when I do this there is no command in the menu for this.
I have included all of my image files in the Bin and have also added them using the resource editor, but to no avail As I have indicated it is the Express edition, could this make a difference
I have an application that has a ProgressBar added to it set to Continuous style. Everything seems to work great except that the progress bars seems to "fill in" slower than needed. As a test, I created a form with a continuous progressbar and a button. The button code only sets the progressbar's value to 100 (which is the max). Basically, for the test, the value changes from 0 to 100, but the ProgressBar seems to incrementally fill in like it is doing a PerformStep or something. I don't get it. Is there a way to get the ProgessBar to go from empty to immediately full when setting the value from 0 to 100 without the animated filling?

View 1 RepliesI have an explorer-like interface which in many ways mimiques the behaviour of a standard explorer window. What I need is to find some way of knowing if something had changed in the filesystem since the last time I checked.What I mean, for example if a user creates a directory or renames a file - I need a way to know that. Right now I re-read the contents of the displayed folder once per second and I added a manual 'Refresh' button, but I wonder if there is a better solution.I tried to use FileSystemWatcher component for that but either I couldn't figure out how it works or it doesn't have such functionality.

View 2 RepliesI am trying to follow this userguide url... to basically build an application that will allow users to connect to my database, from an exe file. I'll try to explain as best i can. The plan is, users will launch an exe file that i have built in Visual Basic(VB) 2010 Express. When they launch the application they will see a 'login screen'.I am following the example guide (see link above), and will customise it once i can connect to the database. For some reason whenever i connect to the database it gives me two errors, the first is if i use the 'debug' mode in VB to test the script (note it doesn't produce any build errors), the second is if i build the application and run it as my users would.
1)Error Connecting to Database:Access denied for user 'mike'@'92.**.**.***' (using password:YES)
2)Error Connecting to Database:Unable to access any of the specified MySQL hosts..The ip address starred out (*) is my local machine ip address.The server is the server in which my Database runs on. 'mike' is a listed user on my 'user' table, the password i use is the password assigned to this user on my table.
3)I've rebuilt the whole VB project, but still no joy, wern't expecting it to as there were no errors generated.
4) I've read, but don't really understand that it could be something to do with my database not being able to be controlled remotely, only locally. I started digging into 'Access Your MySQL Server Remotely Over SSH', didn't really know if i was going completely off the mark, it didn't mention needing to do any of this in the guide i've been following, but just a thought. It might be the case as i've tried to access my database through a programme called MySQL Administrator. I punch in the host,username etc and connect to my database, for some reason it won't allow me to add new users, could this be because i can't control my database remotely? Would this stop what i'm trying to do working?
5) When trying to install the MySQL.Data.dll file i had great difficulty in choosing one and finding it, adding it to my project using the 'Add reference' in VB. Finnally got it how it should be (i think), installed MySQL.Data.dll Ver 6.1.2.0 into my project.
Is there any way to access your variable names at runtime? Is there any kind of collection you can loop through?

'if urltocheck is blank use hidden webbrowser to get page text
If urltocheck = vbNullString Then

Thats the code how do I make these calls the the browser from the backgroundworker? Or how I can I run an enormous for loop from the ui thread, and still keep the ui responsive?
I'm having a strange difficulty. Here is the order of events:User presses button on form1 New Form object is created for from 2 New form object '.show' command is fired Form 2 opens correctly In the Load Event of Form 2, the form attempts to do various things in a try, catch, finally clause On catch, I close form2 down '.close' as it cannot be used as something has gone wrong with the execution However, my problem is this. It is acceptable for things to go wrong on the from 2 load event which is why I have implemented the try - catch functionality. However, when I close the form2 down as a result of the problem, a real error ocurrs 'Cannot access a disposed object' and the VB IDE refers me to Form1's '.show' event for Form2.
It is almost as if the form hasn't fully 'shown' before I am closing it down. Does anyone have any idea what the problem is here? Do I need to close down Form2 ourside of it's Load event handler so that Form1 thinks it has loaded correctly?

I'm writing a really simple file updater which downloads files off from a website and saves them. The download routine is working well, except that it freezes the project while attempting to connect to the host. Easily solved with threading except now when I try to access other form items such as text boxes, labels, form caption, it says I am not doing it in a safe manner and prompts an interrupt in debug. I did some reading on it and I'm still not sure what to do, I'm very new to vbnet and it is still a little confusing to me.
