I am a total newbie when it comes to VB but I'm starting off with a few simple projects I've completed already! Basically Ive seen MANY stopwatch tutorials but none so far have been able to do a simple format of Second and Milliseconds 00:00 and NONE have been accurate in the slightest and have been totally off! create a simple stop / start stopwatch that is actually accurate that would be great as Im going around in circles trying to find a tutorial on this!
View 23 RepliesI am trying to make a start and pause button (and hence continue) to start, pause, and continue my program. The start button works but the pause button does not. Can someone look at my code and see what the pause button needs to do to pause the program? I am using VB 2005. Here is my code.

I loaded up VS 2010 to work on a VB.NET project but for some reason the Run/Pause/Stop buttons are missing from the toolbar and I cannot set breakpoints. Only changes from yesterday to my system was this morning Windows was trying to install Visual Studio SP1 updates but all failed.
View 2 RepliesI have a StopWatch running, I convert the milliseconds to the following format. 00:00:00 i.e HH:MM:SS which is a label.
I can pause the the stopwatch and resume but I dont seem to be able to edit the stopwatchs time. So lets say my time says 00:00:02 , i now want to pause the program which I can, but also change the stopwatch time to 00:00:10 and resume counting.
I use it as a timer(obviously) to get the lapsed time of an upload. Something that took 2 secs it said 12. [code] Everything looks right. and it seemed to be working. Just in no way did it take 8 or 12 secs to send
View 4 RepliesI am writing a Windows Forms Application using Visual Studio 2008 Pro .NET version 3.5 with STRICT and EXPLICIT options both ON.
I am having trouble using ".Start()" and ".Stop()" for my stopwatch method from other methods. I have tried several different methods of writing the line that calls the start and stop, but none work, and VS keeps sending me in circles with its correction suggestions.
Form Level
vb
Imports System.Diagnostics
Class Level
[Code]....
and promptly gives me the same error with no options for correcting it. The same thing happens for the stop command.
1) Why the pause button and also the pause command does not exist in VB 2010 Express?
2) I have some solutions under 2010. In 2 or 3, while debugging, I can change instructions without restarting the application. In others, I cannot change anything (Is like readonly), Looking in 'My Applications', Tab 'Debug', Option 'Configuration' I can choose several Options. In the applications I can debug, the default is 'Active (Debug)'; in the others is 'Active (Release)'. If I change the options, the word 'Active' remains attached to the original option.
Right now in my app I have a Pause and a Continue button, basically I enable/disable the controls on the form. Is there a better way to handle this.
Is there a way to lock the cursor in the control that it is in when the Pause button is clicked and then release it when the Continue botton is clicked?
I am fairly new to programming and vb.net and I am working on a small project but in the project i need a message box (2 different occasions) where the buttons, instead of Yes No say Pause and GO. The video [URL] told me to make a new form (dialogue) and then in my main form add a public sub.
Here is the sub I have:
Public Sub injectmessage(ByVal ingmessage As String)
Dim topmessage As New Message
Dialog1.Label1.Text = ingmessage
Dialog1.ShowDialog()
End Sub
All that does is puts the message on the messagebox.
Is there any way i can pause a file download in my vb program?? I have tried both the http method and the my.computer.net method with no luck. I have also tried pausing the background worker by this method: [URL] But even if the bgworker is paused the download goes on.....

I am having a problem and that is I have buttons to read text to speech like play pause and stop I have created 4 buttons Play,Pause,Stop,Resume but now I dont want the Resume button, instead when I click on the pause button it should pause the speech and later when I click the same button again I need the speech to be resumed this is what I wrote?
Public SAPI = CreateObject("SAPI.spvoice")
Private Sub startSpeaking_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles startSpeaking.Click
SAPI.speak(RichTextBox1.Text, 3)

I have an app that I'm debugging and I need to pause it by clicking on a "pause" button in the development environment. I don't want to stop it programmatically, just manually to check what it is doing. I know this should be simple but I can't find a pause button anywhere on the toolbar.

In all of these only play, stop and pause work everything else isn't working. tried lot of codes and even forms nothing works ..
I want a stopwatch thing, to start on the forst form, and stop on the last form, and to show the time.
View 2 RepliesSo a timer's maximum interval is 1 which is a thousand ticks a second. A Stopwatch's frequency is 2238906 ticks a second on my pc...
I am wondering if there is a reliable way to trigger an event for each tick of the stopwatch without missing any ticks...
If I can somehow get a Tick event for the stopwatch, I believe I can increase the resolution of my input recorder....
I currently have two stopwatches ( running in a VB 2010 program. What I would like to do is combine their values together and have their results outputted in a string formatted as 0:00:00.I tried the Add method and the + method but this fails.This is in short what I have:
Dim timer1 As New Stopwatch
Dim timer2 As New Stopwatch
[Assuming the timers were started separately]
convert the following code to work in a visual studio 2008 windows form application
I'm very new to Visual Basic, and have just installed VB Express 2008 from a Sams book titled, "Teach Yourself Visual Basic 2008 in 24 Hours", by James Foxall. I've managed to make it through most of the book, which was very helpful in getting a quick jump start, but I find that I am still "not quite getting it" yet.
I've written a program that has a "Start" and "Stop" button which are suppose to control the logging of data through a serial port. When I click the Start button, the serial port gets initialized, opened, and then I go into a Do-Loop-Until loop to process the incoming data stream, and that is suppose to stop when the Stop button is pressed. However, I haven't figured out how to implement that.

i created some buttons to start a remote connection with some server.Private Sub Button15_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button15.Click Dim RetVal
RetVal = Shell("mstsc.exe /v 10.100.6.11")End Sub But now the remote connection starts minimized, how can i fix this so it starts maximized,i dont want to use /span because some people use 2 monitors and don't want it "widescreen"

I've commented out various things to limit it to specifically this command (example, I can swap mklink out with notepad and it works fine). The command runs fine from a DOS window, but can't be found when I use it this way. I also tried using the SHELL command just to test and I get the same results. No idea why it can't be found, as like I said it executes from the command prompt just fine.
I want to insert a pause between the display of one control (a button) and the display of another control (a label) on a windows form. Specifically, I want the form to load with the button (and other controls) displayed, then, after a pause of two seconds, the label to display. I have tried timers, and .Sleep() but the effect is not what I want. That is, there is a pause before all of the controls are displayed, and all (including the label) are displayed at one time. I want most of the controls (all except the label) to display normally, then, after a two second pause, I want the label to display (on the same form).

I am new to stackoverflow and the programming world. I have a basic program i'm making that will play a song in the background.
I already have that part working, it auto starts a launch of program.
However, I would like to have a button that pauses, then resumes the audio.
(I am trying to avoid making it a media player and using the media player control) Song was add as a resource.
My.Computer.Audio.Stop (works to stop it.)
But how can I implement the pause,resume? by adding a boolean or something?
(I would like pause and resume feature to be within the same button)

View 7 RepliesOkay so I have a webbrowser that navigates to 1 page and I want it to wait 5 seconds and go to the next page, then I want it to wait 5 seconds and go to the next page I want it to navigate to and so on... I tried thread.sleep but I don't want to have the form stop completely in case someone wants to minimize the form. I thought about using a timer to tell it how long it wants to stop and go.
