After reading a thread that said that other programs are out of my forms coding zone, is there a way i can attach my form to another program so that it will be in its coding zone and my form will be able to click on it?
View 1 RepliesThe code in question is in place, and it works. The project is all but wrapping up. That being said, I would love to find a better way to run this section of code in an x64 system so I have the solution ready for future projects. What I currently have in place is as follows:
Function TimeDelay(vDelay)
Dim vTimmer, vTargetTime
vTimmer = TimeValue(Now)
[CODE]...
Now I know the easy way to achieve my goal would be to use the timer object in Visual Studio. The problem I ran into is I was developing an automated command line program. As such there was nothing I could attach the timer to (that I'm aware of). I just needed to pause the program for a few seconds to allow the DTSX package (SSIS file if you're not familiar) to load the file before I remove it from the staging folder.
While I was doing research for this issue I came across the old Sleep() function (referenced to a library in kernel32 as I understand it...never used this before either). When I tried to use this on my current system (64-bit system) I received stack overflow errors. Additional research lead to something called wow64, but I did not have enough time to fully research what this is / how to use it.

View 2 RepliesI'm not sure what is the best approach. Here is what I'm trying to do. I have installed sql express 2005 and sql express manger as pre-req before my program is installed. Now I would need to attach a DB to my new sql express instance. I'll be using windows login for this. I pretty much can not touch sql express, and run it as it was installed. No changing settings. Now I can run the SP_AttachDB from sql, but how would I automate that? I have tried the connection string, with the attach database option, but it's not working.

View 2 RepliesI installed 2010 and am trying to attach to VB 6.0 project that has some COM exposed calls. In 2008 I just used Tools, attach to process, selected the running VB 6.0 app, and it would hit the .Net breakpoints. Right now it appears to be running some other version of the .Net program. It must be picking up something registered other the my code open in developemnt.

View 2 RepliesBasically I have to create an application which is a quiz. According to the users score it will then determine what level of skill they have.I know i could do it really easily, by having a number of labels on the form which hold the questions. Then underneath have radiobuttons with possible answers. From this then use an IF statement to add a digit into an invisble label which can tally a score of correct answers. Assign each invisible label a variable which then can be summed in another label, from the score then use a SELECT CASE statement to let the user know what level they are at.But I know that this would mean alot of code and objects on the form. I have read that it would be more efficent to use an XML or TXT document to populate a label and radio buttons, this way it would also be easier to change questions and randomise them.The only problem is that i dont understand how to attach the XML or TXT file to the form so that it does the population of labels & radiobuttons.

I would like some code that would make a Vb.net Form EXACTLY like it should be a control (label) of an external window.This means that when the external window jumps in foreground the Form must be visible on the external window, but WITHOUT to take out it focus.If a third window covers partially the window and the Form, the form must be displayed only in it the visible part: in short, like it should be a control of the external window.
I can't use ShowWindow because also if I use the _NOACTIVATE constant, the external window loses the focus, and if I click on the external window my form disappears until the timer routine put it again on the top: no good.
I can't use TopMost because if a third window covers partially or totally the Form, it don't hides partially or totally the form itself: is the form that hides part of the third window:
