I have made a X,Y counter with a timer and a Label. Its work, but sometimes the X,Y values is not corret, as before.We say that a red dot has the X,Y Value 300,400. Then i close the program och open it and check agin. Then the dot can have the X,Y values 304,407. Now it's seems to be that the program has choosen that the red dot has the 304,407 as X,Y value. But i KNOW sometimes it's goning to chanes back.
Like I imagine everyone, I often have problems navigating my code because the flow can jump from place to place. For example, if my code calls routine1, and I then want to go to routine1's code, I know that I can click in the dropdown menu and it will take me to that sub. But wouldn't it be easier if I could somehow right click on the call to routine way and select something like 'take me there' which would transport me from the function making the call to the code for the function being called? Then it would be easy to hop from place to place.
I have a loaded combo box and was wondering if there was a way i could get the place value from it when it is selected. An example would be i have a combo box full of foods:
Apple Bannana Peach Pear
if the user selects apple then i want to be able to get 1 from the combo box since that is the spot it is in. if peach was selected then i want to get the place value of 3.
Well I currently just finished my game, but it ended up around 1GB. Thus, I tried to revise the code to make it smaller. I am trying to get 2 form events under a single sub. For example, a sub for a town would have the shown event and the click event. However, when I try that it won't work.
The other way is to transfer variables and its data from one sub to another. But I dont know how to either Example:
Private Sub Number Dim TheNumber as integer TheNumber = 1
how to place stuff on forms and such but not much else so i was wondering if a book was better to use to learn or something from a website? if book which books should i check out or which website?
In a program of mine, I have a resource (which is a textfile). This contains also vb.net code, It is resource which is binded to an .exe, with the mainprogram that I have. So the main program calls the resource, and the resource bind to an exe file.
I have this line: Declare Function GetProcAddress Lib "kernel32" (ByVal handle As IntPtr, ByVal name As String) As IntPtr In the source.txt and I want to replace this whole line by a string(or word) which calls this line from somewhere else. For example in another source.txt. A textbox is not possible because this is not a vb form, but a .txt-file. Maybe I can create another resource, which IS a vb.net form, call it or something? In this case. I can create a textbox with this line that I gave above, And I can use it by: textbox1.text.
I am creating a Map Rotation Randomizer for my Call of Duty clan, and I am having an issue with understanding how to randomize the text from the list and placing it into another textbox.
Here's what it looks like right now: All textboxes are multi-line.
When I click a button for a game (CoD4, MW2, WaW), it places the map list into the left textbox like: mp_bloc mp_broadcast mp_crossfire etc.
When I click the button with ">>>", I want it to randomize that list and place it into the right textbox like: map mp_bloc map mp_broadcast map mp_crossfire
Or if I click it again: map mp_crossfire map mp_bloc map mp_broadcast And so on. I think I need to create an array, but I've never worked with those before as I'm still new to learning programming. I'm not even sure what controls I need to put on the form for that, if it even requires any.
I'm in college & in my part time I have been working on some automated web task apps. Just real basic stuff to automate my own personal account tasks on small social networks (not facebook!) to keep up with fan's for my 'soon to be' record label....nothing multiple accounts & it's not any kind of unsolicited spam functions. I know I could obtain most/if not all the info/code I need on this forum... I guess some people just need their hand held more than others, in order to stay focused.
Basically I've just got some things I'd like to add to my application that are above my ability & I need someone to help me out with my code. REALLY SIMPLE STUFF..like I've still yet to figure out for example:
1) How to simply pause between functions, as opposed to having to use a timer for each function. And using 1 timer to enable another timer...and so on in that fashion. Which becomes incredibly confusing & hard to edit after adding more than 3-4 timers reliant on each other LoL
2) Figuring out a way to not have to rely on 'webpage has finished loading' to move onto the next task. When many times on social networks, pages don't load properly, especially during peak hours, thus stopping the function of my web browser based application.
3) Implementing my application using a superior web browser framework. For example Gecko, or some other 3rd party browser that can perform simple tasks like filling forms, submitting them, clicking links/clicking javascript links.Right now using I.E. web browser, after my application has loaded about 75 web pages, it's using about 200mb of ram (from its initial 16mb) because of a memory leak in I.E. to which there is no solution (documented in several threads on this forum).Where in your opinion, would be a good place to look to hire a programmer/tutor for something like this? Because I am not looking for just code, but hands on, like on IM messenger/talk me through help too. I wonder if there is even a place offering services like that?
I only need to subtract 08800000 from whats in bold, the rest will stay the same. The value in textbox1 will always begin with 0x0880xxxx I need to convert that to 0x00000000 so basically I need to subtract 08800000 from textbox1 and place the output in textbox2.
I'm creating a new (or more) tab(s) with a multi-line textbox (filled) at runtime and some text is added. Each time I change/select a (new) tab it needs to search for a string and if found...blablabla.How do I get the control to search in?
I am working on a snake game for my portfolio and was wondering where the best place to put the logic for drawing the snake. Should the code reside within the snake object or within the form? Either would work, but I am wondering from a business objects/coding standard perspective where such code belongs.
I am learning Visual Basic 2010 and I am working on a space combat program for my own education and amusement (a simulation of the Honorverse space combat system). I have a routine to add ships to the enemy ship roster and then place them randomly on the viewscreen. When I step through the sub with the debugger, it works fine, but when I run it without stopping, it wants to place all the objects in the same place on the screen. It's actually assigning 2 random numbers pertaining to the size of the viewscreen and assigning those numbers to GameObjectScreenLocation through GameObjectWorldLocation.X and GameObjectWorldLocation.Y. The objects are fully initialized to 0 in their constructor, FYI. Code is below:
i'm trying to place a label with "backcolor = color.transparent" over a progressbar, but it seems that the progressbar becomes transparent too, how can i avoid this?
i am using vb.net i just wanna ask if we can place a picture in a picture box in different places... for example, we place a picture in the center of a picture box then we place another picture on the left side of the picture box. is it possible?? and also can we use one picture box that can contain more pictures or images on it??? to make it clear, it is a drag and drop senario, first you have to drag a picture from a toolbar for example, then you are to drop it on the picutre box, the problem is, we have to drop more than one picture in the picturebox, so is it really possible?
I am writing a program, and this is only a very small part of it, but it is crucial. i am trying to upload a file to my server, and i am placing the full filepath of the server in a string, before uploading the file. here is what i have[code]...
I'm working on a program that has a picture box that moves. I want to have a picture box here and then also somewhere else that are the same. The reason being is that I need the first box that moves to be stopped by these two boxes.I need the second box to work something like this (Using forms as an example because they actually work)
I designed a DAL (data access layer). This DAL mainly consists of a handfull of methods to call stored procedures. All methods are shared. So no instance generation of the DAL class occurs.
The DAL with it's single class is located in an own project. The connection string is defined in the app-config file of this project.
I want other applications to use the DAL class by referencing the dll generated by the DAL-project. For this reason, I can not any longer define the connection string in the DAL app-config as it is, because the client application determines which database needs to be used.
- Dropping the "shared" keyword of my methods. Create an instance of the DAL class. Add a property for the connection string. When application starts, create one global or multiple local instance/s of the DAL and set it's connection string property.
Comment: I don't like this, because it implies more coding work on the application code side (create instance of class, assign connection string)
- Granting the DAC class access to the connection string defined in the application code by adding a connection string property inside the application code. Thus the DAC class remains "shared".
Comment: I'd need to set a reference from the DAL to the application code during without knowing the application yet. I could try stack tracing or something like that. But it feels to convoluted for me.
I am having hard time determining how to get 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place determined by time. I was thinking about bubble sort through an array, but since I am determining lowest to highest based on numbers = runner it just sounds more confusing. The code to determine second is not that efficient, I know there is an easier way. That is the part where I am stuck.

I am working on a project in which I would like to generate a map. It should be in bitmap form, and should include such things as roads and cities. I DO NOT want to generate a map of a real place.
I am moving an ellipse over a UserControl that has a gradient filled background, how can I retrieve the background and place it in the ellipse as it moves? I need this to hide the original text, I will draw new text within the ellipse. I will capture the background in the UserControl Paint event before the original text is drawn.
I spent most of Friday deleting stuff out of my windows project and/or starting from scratch when the data base was changed. What is the cleanest way to get the data base and data set changes in place? The current changes(which I have not applied yet) effect the file that I am maintaining in my windows project. Right now, we manually delete the data set project from our local PC, then copy the new one down from it's permanet location on the server.
