View 1 RepliesI have been wanting to start a new project for a while but have been putting it off now because of a few thing's.
1) It is something i have never tried before.
2) Right now the probability side of the application would be beyond me.
How ever i say to myself. I have no time limit it needs to be completed in. I would be expanding my knowledge along the way, and it seems like an interesting project to be working on.
The idea it self is similar to drug wars(it's only a game so no comments )
Depending on a new day, different location the price will vary. How ever there is obviously a set likely hood range the price will fall in, but obviously can go above/below this. Also need to take into consideration random events. Police raids, Being attacked, loosing inventory etc.

The"State" value determines the color and text that goes in the text box, however there are different textboxes for each replicated folder name.What I have which works is

I am writing a rather large project using the vb 2010, and customer wants to have the opportunity to change the colors of labels, forms etc.
input of color names to a series of ComboBox'es and the ComboBox.text are stored in a database for later use. But now I am faced with the problem of converting those names back to a color. I have used the following codes which is working - but there have to be a more intelligent way of doing it ?
Private Sub ShowColors()
Me.BackColor = SelectColors(rsFormSetUp.Fields("FormBackColor").Value)
Label1.ForeColor = SelectColors(rsFormSetUp.Fields("FormTextForeColor").Value)

Is it possible to change string color. I think no, but could change how it displays.
View 7 RepliesI am looking for a way to change color code for individual characters on the same line as others, which will have a different color. Much like how some words in the code will be blue, black, light blue.. I can't find any code online and don't know enough to make it myself.
View 1 RepliesI made a simple code that changes the background color for my program and then save it. But for some reason, it will not work if the RGB code has 255 in it.

I am trying to make a texas hold em game and it is of the utmost importance that my code generate a random number. But using a random number function that I always end up with a lot of the same numbers over and over again. Any ideas on how to make it "TRULY" random? [code]

View 7 RepliesThe class Random is out right defective. It always produces the same random numbers in the same sequence. Things I have tried so far is every kind of seed you can think of as well as Randomize. The result is that I always get the same random numbers in exactly the same sequence.
View 4 RepliesI am practicing using the drawing commands, and have gotten a grass background and black happy face that moves around the background.It's a 10x10 grid of 50 pixels.I want (at the moment, when i press enter) it to generate a random number of trees (15 ~ 25) at random locations on the background. The program doesn't freak out about anything, and the variables seem to be right (using stop commands) but it's not drawing anything. Here is the code for the "GenerateTrees" command I have for when I press enter.
Private Sub GenerateTrees()
NumberOfTrees = Int(Rnd() * 10) + 15
For i = 0 To NumberOfTrees - 1
bmap.MakeTransparent(Color.Fuchsia)

[URL] That way if the string that is not recognised that is passed to Color.FromName it returns a SolidColor of
Color.Black = Color.FromARGB(255,0,0,0)
That way, Forms and controls that only support SolidColors are supported.Installing VB6 on Windows 7?

How can i use the color dialogue to return the color selected as a string? So if i was to select red i would like the return to be "Red" and so on so fourth.Another thing i would like to ask is if it is possible to return the color selected as a string in hex color code form (like what is used in HTML for example #FFFFFF, #000000 and so on so fourth).I have a feeling though that it can only be returned as R G B integers but maybe there is a way of converting these to hex color codes?

Just started programming with visual basic 2010 after programming a lot with vbs (Visual Basic script) it looks a lot like each other but there are a couple of differnces so here are a couple of questions.
1. What is a integer and what is a string?
2. Can i code an own sub? so it works at all times and not only when i " do something" (press a button or something like that)
for example: if progressbar1.value = 10 then msgbox " well done" now i can only add this line when i connect it to a button or something but i want to connect it to all the lines.
3. whats wrong with this line?: WebBrowser1.Navigate [URL]
Im trying to create an app that can Compile and run vb.net code while running. Like I will have a multiline textbox and a button that runs the code. The code should run as if it Were to be in a normal Sub. I've heard of system.reflection but all the examples microsoft provided have failed.
View 4 RepliesThe string itself contains things like "random" & random.next(1,3) & "random2" etc. The string registers all of this as a string and doesn't actually calculate random numbers.Is there any way to fix this?
