VS 2010 - VB 2010 - Automation - Function For Accepting The Keystrokes
Sep 13, 2011
I am creating a VB 2010 program that lets your select the program(s) you want to install (chkbox) and hit run. Then have it launch the installer ( the file is across the server) and accept the predefined keystrokes to proceed through the installation process. Afterwards, it starts the next install. Below is the code that I have. What i cant get to function is the unit accepting the keystrokes, its almost as if it wont take focus ( even when i have used Appactivate and threading.thread.sleep). I have even gone so far as to identify it as a process to manipulate the thread. To be honest, i'm at a loss and need any help at all. The final sub that contains "btntest" is where I am at currently in my attempts. [Code]

I'm running Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Express on Windows 7, using a Regional Setting set to New Zealand.
When I enter a date in a NZ format (d/mm/yyyy), the IDE highlights the date and tooltip reports date constant not valid. But it is valid for NZ! Meanwhile, the IDE happily accepts dates in the US format.
I would have expected VB to look at my PCs regional settings and set this as the default format. What is wrong here? I have reinstalled the application, but still have the same problem.

I'm new to VB and I'm trying to get this app to recognize that a "C" is the same as "c" but for some reason its not recognizing it. Its seeing the lower case letters as 10%.
Here is the code I currently have...
Private Sub btnCalculate_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCalculate.Click
Dim subtotal As Decimal = CDec(txtSubtotal.Text)
Dim discountPercent As Decimal

We have a large WinForms app, and there is a built-in bug reporting system that can be activated during testing via the F5 Key. I am capturing the F5 key with .Net's PreFilterMessage system. This works fine on the main forms, modal dialog boxes,etc.Unfortunately, the program also displays windows messageboxes when it needs to. When there is a bug with that, e.g., wrong text in the messagebox or it shouldn't be there, the messagefilter isn't executed at all when the messagebox is up! I realize I could fix it by either rewriting my own messagebox routine, or kicking off a separate thread that polls GetAsyncKeyState and calls the error reporter from there. However I was hoping for a method that was less of a hack. Here's code that manifests the problem:
Public Class Form1
Implements IMessageFilter
Private Sub Form1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles

What does this error mean in VB6? Function or interface marked as restricted, or the function uses an Automation type not supported in Visual Basic.
I keep getting it when i call a particular method of a dll that comes with windows xp and beyond (in system32 called upnp.dll)

I have an VB.NET 2010 application using framework 4 that has issues with reading and writing to cells using command similar to 'RequiredSoftwareVersion = EmployeesSheet.Cells(37, 4).value'. The big thing is I can open/close the workbook, select which worksheet in the workbook. On some computers it works fine, on others I get a pop-up that asks if you want details, continune, quit. All the computers have Office 2007 installed.

Using VB2008 on a W7 system equipped with Office 2010, I added a reference to Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word (The Office12 version, not sure if this is OK). Then I have the following code:
Imports Microsoft.Office.Interop
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim WordApp As Word.Application
[code]....
But all I keep getting is an exception on the CreateObject line indicating "Cannot create ActiveX component". I don't think it likes the "Word.Application" statement for some reason. Is this because I'm using Word2010?

I have created a picturebox in a form that I want to click on and then it would send me to a excel file that I already have created. I don't know if it is even possible. Do I need to use a button instead?, or am I just way off all together.

Do you have any experience with add-ins for Office 64 bit?

I have a very small VS 2010 app that basically reads the records of a text file, adds some additional information to the end of the record read, and writes the new record to a new text file.The issue Im having is with the Left() function.I need to take all chars left of position 10 of a text box and add it to the end of the new record before I write it. When I use the Left() the "Error List shows an error related to this function.The error says:Public Property Left As Integer has no parameters and its return type cant be indexed.It gives two solutions: 1) Generate Method Stub Left in Project1.Form1 and 2) Generate Property Stub Left in Project1.Form1 When I select solution
1) that creates a warning indicating: Function Left conflicts with property Left in the base class Control and should be declared Shadows. When I select solution
2) that creates a warning indicating: Property Left shadows an overloadable member declared in the base class 'Control. If you want to overload the base method, this method must be declared 'Overloads.
Here is the code:
Public Class frmProcessFile
Private Sub cmdProcessFile_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles

I have no clue how to get ScreenToClient working. I declared the function using:
Private Declare Function ScreenToClient Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Integer, ByVal lpPoint As POINTAPI) As Integer
Then:
Private Structure POINTAPI
Dim x As Integer
Dim y As Integer
End Structure
[Code] .....
What I want to do is move the cursor to 29,109 of the hwnd, not my screen (hence why I'm trying to use screentoclient).

I have a group box which contains 40 checkboxes, when a checkbox is selected its content is added to a list and removed if already checked. Now I could write 40 functions one for each event (lots of code) each containing a add to the list function and a remove on uncheck, or I could use multiple handles (confusing multiple line declaration) is there another way? say my list of chkboxes had 100 checkboxes or more? can I for example use the container in some way?
