So, I want to know. What are the possibilities of changing the FPS of a given program. If the odds are anything about 0,
edit: I didn't make myself very clear. I'm just curious if it's possible change a program's limit to FPS. For example, I can change Firefox.exe to only get 10 FPS, and nothing more.
i was wondering if it is possible to changed the background of the actual computer desktop. i've searched, but all i can find is how to change the background of the form.
View 1 RepliesThis is maybe an weird question because I don't know if its possible so prepare .I am working on a project its a kinda autoclicker.It moves the cursor to positions and perform mouseclicks it all works perfectly.So when it runs you can't do something else on the pc because the cursor gets moved every 1-5 seconds.So I wanna now if its possible to kinda attach it to the program I am making it for so it moves the cursor and do clicks within the form of the program.

View 3 RepliesBackground: I have a program that has implemented the two "classic" taxes for Ontario Canada: 5% GST and 8% PST. At the beginning of July (2010) the province switched to one combined HST tax of 13% for the most part. Effects and changes here but those aren't the main point of this question...
Question: What are best practices and good solutions to accommodate for future changes easily in retail taxes? Tax changes occur often enough. I'm sure there are a many SO users with good experience.
I have textboxes and lables (e.g. displaying changing filenames etc) which I hope to display the latest value when a program run.But the fact is, I found content of such textboxes and lables are not updated when the program run (under debug mode) although I'm sure that I've issue such command as textbox.text="xxx" or label.text="yyy" etc.What should I do in order that the textbox and lable can always display latest value when a program run?

View 2 RepliesDoes anyone know why my text isn't changing? When my main form's "logging in" screen appears, the text is supposed to change as it makes changes to the main form. I did this by having a timer start when the form loads and as it ticks the actions are performed and the text changes. The timer's interval is 1,000.[code]By default, loadingtxt says "Logging In As (Username)". However, the text just remains as this instead of changing. Is the timer's interval not big enough or something?

I know this is a really noob question but in my program when my button is enabled true/false I change the colour so i was thinking if there is an easier way to do this? or is the following the best way?
[Code]....
Not as easy as it sounds, I've been doing alot of research on this and I just about decided I can't find the answer, The Goal:I want to be able add a single image to a form from a selection of images with the click of a button, this would probably work much better with java but I know nothing about java so I am using vb
Progress:So far I have decided to just try and find way to change the buttons background image to display the image I want, so I set up lots of buttons in a form with the text "+" which simply means add a photo. Now I binded the buttons to a context strip with text saying what image I can change the buttons backgroundimage to.Questions:I need to know how to make the buttons background image change from the click of one of the options on the context strip. Is this even possible?
I have an array of structs and each struct contains values for the checkboxes. I am trying to display the checkbox values contained within a particular struct.
MyStruct is an array of structs which has a values for the checkboxes
ChkBoxCol is the collection of check boxes for the form.
I am iterating through the collection as follows:
[Code]...
What I am noticing is that if the check boxes are checked in order (checkbox 1, 2, 3, 4...etc) the code works fine and the values are displayed correctly in the form. However, if the check boxes are not checked in order (4, 5, 7...etc) the code does not write the values of the check boxes and instead keeps them blank. I just need to display the values for the check boxes for a specific struct.

View 1 RepliesWhat I am trying to do is have a Form which can dynamically change the controls which are on it and their properties; this allows my main GUI to be more fluid and not have tons of groups and controls on it which I must hide and show when needed. To make this as extensible and reusable as possible, however, I want all the control additions/subtractions/edits to occur through a separate DLL which I write. The problem is, I can't seem to instantiate any controls in the Class Library because I cannot import 'System.Windows' or any of its children ('Forms').

I am attempting to create a MS Word (2010) document using automation (but not VSTO). My problem (for the moment) is that I don't know how to set a word (or set of words) to be bold. I can set the bold on an entire paragraph, but not part of the paragraph.
Here is an example:
sText = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog"
oPara1 = oDoc.Content.Paragraphs.Add
oPara1.Range.Font.Name = "Arial Narrow"
oPara1.Range.Font.Bold = True
[code]....
The above sample will turn the entire paragraph bold. However, if I want to just set the word "fox" bold, this I can't do. I did find a solution that will search and replace every instance of the word "fox" (or just the first instance), but this is not a valid option for the project I'm working on where the word "fox" might appear half a dozen times but only one of those (that I select) would be bold.
When I use the code
Public Class Form1
Private Declare Function GetAsyncKeyState Lib "user32" (ByVal vKey As Integer) As Integer
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[Code] .....
I get an error saying that the cursor format may be wrong. It is a .cur which is the standard for cursors. How to rewrite this so when GetAsyncKeyState(1) then the computers cursor will change to the currentcursor.
Can I change the column header of the list view? Like adding background image to it? all i can change is its text.
