I've got a form that needs to inherit a base form. The problem is that the base form has a menu strip. How can I hide the inherited menu strip? Alternatively, how can I exchange the inherited menu for something I construct myself in the new form?

I have found David Sussman's (from sp.net) answer. but it was for a .sitemap file. So how can I manage to do the same with the sql sitemap provider mentioned above.[code]...

I have a listview in details mode with multiple columns. I want to be able to temporarily hide entries. I know the old Listview.Items(x).hide = true doesn't exist (from research).I'm wondering if there's a way to create a temporary list of every item NOT to display, remove them from the listview, then when I want them back, just re add them from the list
View 5 RepliesI need to change which pages of a tab control are available at different times. Right now I'm just disabling the unwanted tabs (TabControl1.TabPages(x).Enabled = False), but I've got a user who can't comprehend why she can still view the tab page if she can't use it.
So I need to either hide the tabs altogether or disable them such that you can't switch to that tab page at all.
I'm curious if it is possible to hide a group of text boxes from view in a form until a particular condition is met, and to have a custom set of text boxes for that condition. To give an example; I want radio buttons offering choices for a manner of searching records, the user selects one and then a specific set of text boxes are displayed for the user to utilize, if a different option is chosen a different set of text boxes will be shown. Is this something that can be done?

View 9 RepliesI've been trying to work out away off using a drop down box to hide and show different components, on top of one another, within panels using this
Private Sub ComboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ComboBox1.SelectedIndexChanged
If ComboBox1.Text = "Panel 2" Then
Panel1.Visible = False
[code]....
However this only works as wanted when the panels are separate from one another (one above, one below) but I want them to be on top of each other so I can switch between them. Essentially I want two forms within a form.Second question; I have an equation I wish to implement in my code (N = N0*e^-a*b) does vb have a way of calculating exponentials and logs? (Ie: log(a/b))

View 3 RepliesI'm writing a Windows Forms application in VB.Net 2010. The application's purpose is to recreate the Device Manager in VB.Net. The idea here is to capture the information provided by Device Manager and store it in a database.In turn this information could be used as a configuration management tool.My device tree is coming along nicely, with one minor exception. There are hidden devices that Device Manager does not display by default. Show Hidden Devices causes Device Manager to display these devices. My Device Manager displays them by default. I want to duplicate the Device Manager behavior of being able to hide and display these devices in my appilcation. I have had some success with this task in that I am able to hide the Plug and Play devices that are marked as hidden by windows by use of the "Don't Display In DM" flag. There is the small issue of the Non Plug and Play Device Class. Is there a similar flag for Non Plug and Play devices?
I have found a reference to the PNP_DEVICE_STATE and IRP_MN_QUERY_PNP_DEVICE_STATE IRP.It contains a flag PNP_DEVICE_DONT_DISPLAY_IN_UI.My problem is that I cannot find any guidance as to the structure of this API declare and the coding needed to use it. I'm not even sure if this API will be helpful in accomplishing my task.I want to hide the Non Plug and Play devices and device class in my tree.I am using Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate and Running Windows 7 Ultimate with all Service Packs and updates applied.
I want to create a game using visual basic 2010. I'm a specialist in VBA and Excel but not VB 2010.I want to display and hide a whole group of objects. In Acces I used for such cases the TabControl. For example in Tab1 the Game, in Tab2 the highscore and in Tab3 the options. Then I made it transparent, so that the Tabs (Buttons) are not visible, only the objects in Tab1 Tab2 and Tab3. With VBA I select the Tabs controlled by my own buttons (jpg). I tried the same in VB 2010. Without success.What can I do to switch between game, highscore and options without using popups. I want to display them at the same positions. So game objects and option objects should hide and highscore objects should be shown. And the other way round. Like the handling is with different layers in photoshop!

View 3 RepliesI'm not sure how to go about making my menus and context menus to look like the other
menus and context menus in vista.I thought the style would automatically be inherited from vista, but it seems not - and I can't find any sort of 'style' option anywhere either.The image on the left, is what I want the style to be, on the right is what I don't want it to be.
I have a menu item which is set to be the MdiWindowListItem. If I open several child windows, they appear in the Windows menu on the MDI Parent as expected. If I minimize one or more of the child forms they appear along the bottom of the parent and are still in the list. So far so good. If I select one of the non-minimized child forms which is behind another, then it comes to the front, which is what I expect. However if I select from the Windows menu item one of the minimized child forms, the it's title bar is activated showing it is selected, but it doesn't restore to its previous state. How do I get the minimized child form to automatically restore (to normal or maximised) when I select it from the Windows list.
I have tried using the Activated event for the child, but it has undesirable effects (ie restores at times when you don't want it to!)

I'm writing a small software similar to the calculator in Windows, the calculator in Windows has a menu bar; in the menu bar, you can find "scientific" and "standard" mode; once you select different mode, your form will be changed, but the two forms still share the same menu bar.
I want to create the same effect of this:
1. Two forms, only one is visible at any time
2. The menu bar on the top of the two forms should be shared between these forms

View 7 RepliesI have a TreeView control on a form with two Root nodes. Both root nodes use the same ContextMenuStrip. The problem I'm having is that at runtime if I right-click on the root node that IS NOT selected, and select the option to add a child node, it gets added to the node that IS selected. My code for adding the child node is below.
Is there a way to have the control first SELECT the node that was right-clicked, or at least determine which node was right-clicked?

I am working on a project that is pretty much done, but I wanted to put the finishing touch on it.I have a shock wave flash object over most of my form, and I load shock wave files onto it so they are accessible from the main flash object. But one of the shock wave menus I have is pretty much just flat, and I was wondering how I can make it a little transparent like the windows 7 GUI so you can kind of see a blur of whats behind the GUI.
