VS 2010 Dynamically Generated Button Background?
Nov 2, 2011
On my main form I have a 9 button grid that I need to fill with a gradient colour so that it represents a "heat map" going from Green (lower left) to Red (upper right). The "heat map" needs to be generated dynamically as - if I use an pregenerated image I have noticed colour variances when working on different screens / projectors as in the app there are other dynamically generated graphics & the two sets of colours need to match.So to achieve this - on my main form I have a PictureBox that I fill with the gradient colour.On top of the PictureBox I place my grid of 9 buttons.I then hide each button & take a screenshot of what is behind it & that then becomes the background image for the button. The button is then made visible.All works fine when I am testing in on a simple form The issue is that this arrangement needs to be placed on a tab control & I'm having difficulty replicating what I could do successfully on the simple form.....
Code for the colour gradient :-
Dim A As Integer
Dim B As Integer
Dim C As Integer
Dim D As Integer
[code]...

I have dynamically generated some number of buttons. Now i need to manipulate them in such a way that clicking on one button should do something on another button. How to do it? I would prefer the code to be as simple as possible as i am tutoring amateurs.
Private Sub NewButton(ByVal ButtonNumber As Integer)
' set the button properties
btn.Name = "Button" & ButtonNumber

I have used the following code to generate buttons dynamically. I want to know how to code in such a way that if i click one button, there should be some change done to some other button in the same form. Since all the buttons are generated in the loop, i do not know how to call one button elsewhere in the code.
Private Sub random2_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim i As Integer

I'm dynamically creating a button control, and I'd like to add a background image from my resources thing to the button.
Now, I'm pretty sure it would be:
CODE:
But I don't know how to refer to an image that is in my project resources.
I've tried:
CODE:
But that gives error:Value of type 'System.Drawing.Bitmap' cannot be converted to 'String'.

dynamically creating buttons with images in them and then accessing the on click event for that button. However lets say for example I have three buttons created during run time, button 1, 2 and 3 for simplicities sake. Each button needs to correspond to a value (lets say one, two and three). The problem comes in when i want to, for example, click on dynamically generated button 3 and have it display "three" in a message box. But button 2 might close the program. How can i reference an event when i don't know which button corresponds to which action..

Also I also have some controls that are generated by the designer

My goal is to take some form inputs and prompt the user to download a summary of everything once a certain button is clicked. I have no need for the file once it is downloaded and so I'd like to have a solution where the data is streamed directly to the user. My current solution doesn't even prompt the user for a download. Can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong?[code]....

I have a web browser control in my windows form. I am trying to automate some process in a website. During this process, the invoice pdf has been generated dynamically and shown in the web browser control. I need to save that pdf locally. Please note: there is no direct link to download the pdf. I googled a lot past couple of days and haven't found any solution yet.

The code below loads 4 Tab Pages at runtime to a TabControl. If I have UserControls in my toolbox, I can't just drag and drop the user control onto these TabPages because they don't exist yet! How do I accomplish this dynamic loading of UserControls onto the Tab Pages as they are created?

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;

I have created a Stored Procedure in SQL which produces a pivot table. I've successfully created a GridView in ASP.NET to display this data.
However, some of my column headings are dynamically generated from the data (AutoGenerateColumns=True), and those column headings are just dates, so they will look different almost every time the table is generated.
This all works fine, except that the date format of the column headings is wrong. I know I could change the way SQL produces the dates in its output, but I don't want to do it that way. I want to control it from the web page.
I didn't think this would be difficult - I thought I could just do something along the lines of finding the cells in the header row and changing the datastringformat. The problem is that whether I put my code in the GridView's DataBound or RowDataBound event, the cells in the header row seem to be empty, so I can't reformat them. It's as if the headers get populate some time AFTER the DataBound event, but I don't know when or how to trap it.

To set the scene, I have implemented a drag and drop rearrange in a FlowLayoutPanel (thanks to a few good Tutorials) which worked absolutely fine until the client decided that he needed many Panels each contained in the Tabs of a Tab Control.Ironically the FlowLayoutPanel rearrange still works if the panel is not in the Tab Page. However the moment it is it stops functioning completely.In all honesty its probably a simple issue that I'm missing but I can't seem to find an answer. I'm certain that the issue is in the following block of code, most probably in the following place:If controlcoll(i).Bounds.Contains(mouse.X - flow.Left, mouse.Y - flow.Top) Then Either that or in a property of either of the controls. [code] The Panels, Tabs and Buttons (which are what need to be rearranged) are all dynamically generated.

I created a custom class for a custom object. I instantiate like so[code]...
Now, I have two problems. First, right now this is just overwriting the same object properties, again, and again. I need to somehow dynamically name the object. Then, I need to place these objects in an array so I can iterate through them...

I'm coding an ASP.NET page, with VB code behind. When the user clicks a button on the page, I send them an email with information and instructions. Rather than sending a plain text email, I send a nice, pretty, HTML-formatted one. Right now, I'm doing this in a way that I KNOW will be difficult to maintain. That is, I'm straight up writing out all of the html. [code]...

I'm creating a PDF file on the fly using ITextSharp and ASP.NET 1.1. My process is as follows -
Create file on server Redirect browser to newly created PDF file so it is displayed to user
What I'd like to do is delete the PDF from the server as soon it is displayed in the users browser. The PDF file is large so it is not an option to hold it in memory, an initial write to the server is required. I'm currently using a solution that periodically polls for files then deletes them, but I'd prefer a solution that deletes the file immediately after it has been downloaded to the client machine. Is there a way to do this?

I have an asp.net web forms application. In this application, students upload assignments and submit a survey along with it. For the survey, I read values from DB and dynamically generate ASP.NET Controls like radiobuttonlist, checkboxlist, textbox on the form during gridview's RowDataBound Event. I cannot do it in Page_Init method because I create only if a user click on a specific assignment which requires a survey to be submitted.
When I submit the survey form, the survey values are not saved into database. During debugging I figured it out that the values are not available in the codebehind page. The radiobuttonlist.selectedvalue returns and I get following error[code]....

I'm trying to produce a repeater showing amounts of money taken by various payment types into a table.Payment types available come from a global settings file as an array, I am creating a dataTable by looping this list and extracting sales reports (there might be a more efficient way than this loop, but this is not my concern at the minute).My question: How do I bind this to a repeater and display it when I dont necessarily know the table column namesI've tried various methods to give the table a header row and give the columns numerical names from a for > next loop, but am either getting no results, orystem.Data.DataRowView' does not contain a property with the name '7'. < or whatever numberThis is where I currently am:
EDIT: JUST REALISED MY CODE WAS AWFUL, SO UPDATED:
Dim paymentTable As New DataTable("paymentTable")
For j = 0 To UBound(paymentTypes)

I have a VB.net project which uses a background worker to do some stuff.
Now I want to expand the project to be able to do multiple stuff :)
A user can enter an URL in a textbox and when the user click on the parse button the program creates a new tabcontrol a outputs some data.
I use a hardcoded background worker for this.
But now I want to run multiple background workers to do this stuff so I can't rely on hard coding the background worker(s).
Is it possible to create background workers dynamically.
how to set this up since I think I need to set up the different methods and variables like:
Private bw As BackgroundWorker = New BackgroundWorker
bw.WorkerReportsProgress = True
bw.WorkerSupportsCancellation = True
[Code]....
I think I need to declare the background workers in some sort of array like variable (list / dictionary)??? Other then that I have no idea how to tackle this.

I am dynamically creating an unlimited number of background workers and would like to handle errors from them.
In a try statement I am using the following:
Catch ex As Exception
'Me.BeginInvoke(New UpdateTextCallback(AddressOf Error_Text), New Object() {Message, Account})
Exit Sub
End Try
I have commented out the BeginInvoke command because I can not get it to work. I get an error the the handle has not been created. This subroutine is in a module and I can not figure out how to get the invoke to work.

I have the following table row on my .aspx page.
Initial Requirements:
<ItemTemplate>
<td valign="bottom" id="ReqStatus" runat="server" style="background-color: Gray">
<%#ReqStatus(CType(CType(Container.DataItem, System.Data.DataRowView).Row, DataSet1.DataTable1Row))%>
[Code]....
I can change the color of the return value based on conditional statements but cannot figure out the correct syntax to change the table cell back ground. My attempt is commented out.
How do I correctly declare the table cell? Findcontrol must not be the correct way.
