View 1 RepliesSo basically im around 2 months into building a text based rpg game in vb 2010 which is coming along lovely. there are unique charachter creations, bans, loans, monsters to fight, levels, skill points, spells, inn's, etc etc... you get the idea. so now its time to move on to one of the largest problems of all. an inventory :O now, i have a db with the correct information in, i have even sorted all the code for the program to read the db with the correct items and its all working fine. but now i would like to have a more gui system. meaning:a grid based box where pictures of each Item_ID are displayed so you can see what items are in your inventory at any time. now i can sort this out myself with a case select and just load all the images into the local resource and pull itempictue1 when id = 1 itempicture2 when id=2 etc etc you get the idea. what i was woundering is...
could i build a drag and drop system where the player can move the items inside the inventory fairly easily? i have done some research into this but as vb isnt much of a gaming language i've run into a fair few dead ends. Not sure if i have come across right, but in essence, if you have a grid, 4x4 and item 1 is in grid space 1 and item 2 is in grid space 2.. to swap them around with the mouse.Please, dont shout if im asking too much :L nobody likes haters. any help is much appreciated and if you dont think vb can do this then please tell me and i will consider all alternate possibilities unless you have a better idea?
When I insert a new record into my DB the same information gets two records not one. I am using A datatable and sqlcommand and sqlconnection and sqldataadapter and I'm using me.bindingcontext(datatable).position to move between records.

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to automate a form process from a previous employee. One of the things that I have to do to achieve this is select a COM port from a dynamically populated list. I've looked around and the closest thing I could come up with is something like:
.cbbCOMPorts.SelectedItem(1) =
True
While this compiles, the computer does not like this at run-time. It throws an exception out:
"Object variable or With block variable not set."

How to make the File menu drop down on form load ?
I want to make the File Menu to drop down when the form is opened.
I'm working on a Visual Basic application in Visual Studio 2010. The application was originally created in VB6, which had a dedicated menu button editor. Now I need to add new drop-down items to my button menus, but VS10 seems to have no facility for this. All attempts so far appear to lead me to tool strip support, which I do not want.
View 3 RepliesI know how to cut off characters at the end of a string using vb script, which uses the LEFT(string, #) syntax, however, how do i do this using vb.net?

I have a small requirement and that is: There are two combo boxes on a form and for populating the employee names and roles. I am populating the combo boxes as follows: I have created a class called "DbConnect" and in that there are 02 functions as:
Public Function getEmployees() As DataTable
Dim employeeDS As New DataSet
Dim employeeDA As New SqlDataAdapter("prc_emp_list", conn)
employeeDA.Fill(employeeDS, "employees")
[code].....
The data is getting populated into the combo boxes correctly and my requirement is that when I select and employee from the first combo, his corresponding role should get selected in the second combo.
I recently installed WSP Builder on a machine with Visual Studio 2008 already installed.Quite expectedly, the WSP Builder sub-menu appeared (and still appears) under the Visual Studio 2008 Tools menu.Having then installed Visual Studio 2010 Professional and installed WSP Builder a second time, I can not seem to find the WSP Builder sub-menu anywhere under any of the Visual Studio 2010 menus.Can anyone throw some light on this "missing menu" problem?

View 5 RepliesIn a Windows Form application (VB.NET) I have a combo box and under certain conditions, when the user opens the DropDown list, I want to display a warning message.All of this works well: In the DropDown event, I check the conditions and if required I display the warning message.The problem is that when the user clicks on Yes on the warning message, I move to another tab on the main form and the drop down list still shows even though I've moved away from the tab containing the combo box.I've searched quite a bit and tried to set DroppedDown to False, call OnDropDownClosed, etc but nothing worked.It seems that when I try to close the drop down list from within the DropDown event, it doesn't work.

Is using Public Property the best way to achieve the following.From a drop down combobox, a list of options are available. Each option in the combobox has a number of public properties that need to be associated with it.When a option is selected, the user will then have two buttons that each call a different sub, the appropriate options are passed to the sub.Each option will always have the same properties required to be passed.So I'm looking at something like this.
Public Class Parameters
Public Property server As String
Public Property replica As String
Public Propery path As String

I have created a drop-down list box that holds 8 numbers representing a month span (3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 25 months). In order to prevent users from typing just anything into the text box above the combo box, I changed it to a drop-down listbox. The other requirement that I was hoping to implement was for the user to be able to type a number, after which the selection would jump to the appropriate item (i.e. the user types in '1', and the selection jumps to 12). This partially works. It will jump to 12, for example, but immediately after the user types the '1', the Selected Index event changes. The user cannot scroll down or up after typing in a number.

What I want now is to see the tooltip when the mouse rolls over the list of the dop down combo. How can I do that? Until now the internet didn't give me something to work on it. Is there some one to assist me on that?
