VS 2010 : Create A Program That Will Be Using A Shortcut Key In Displaying A Form?
Sep 16, 2010
Im trying to create a program that will be using a shortcut key in displaying a form. But im having problems on how to know if the cursor is on the textbox or datagrid.For example, If I clicked the textbox, and i clicked f1, Customer List Form should appear. No problem with this. I used the following
If txtCustomerName.Focused = True Then
If e.KeyData = Keys.F1 Then
Form9.ShowDialog()
End If
End If
But when I Clicked the cell on the datagrid, and click F1, Product List Form should appear. This is my problem, the form is not appearing when i click f1.Here is my
If dgvSalesEntry.Focused = True Then
If e.KeyData = Keys.F1 Then
Form8.ShowDialog()
End If
End If

I'm writing a vb.net (2010) app to extract a zip file in XP to a specific folder. That part works fine. Now I want to create a desktop shortcut to an application (if it exists I need to delete it first)
This should be an easy to find answer but I believe my eye is beginning to twitch!2 error messages: First Error: "Type expected" On Dim shortCut As IWshRuntimeLibrary.IWshShortcut = DirectCast(WshShell.CreateShortcut(FileName, IWshRuntimeLibrary.IWshShortcut), == this is a simple syntax error but I thought the type was the IWshShortcut ==
Second Error: On "With Shortcut" it fusses: " cannot refer to an instance member of a class from within a shared method or shared member initalizer without an explicit instance of the class."

I'm trying to create a shortcut for my program that sends the user to the world map of a website with the press of a button, but it isn't working. Here's my code:
Private Sub Game_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Game.KeyDown
If e.KeyCode = Keys.M Then
Game.Navigate("http:fallensword.com/index.php?cmd=world")
End If
End Sub
"Game" is a WebBrowser control.

Scenario:I am attempting to perform some work on files (rename/delete) in folder, usually in a network location. Because the location of products folder is not critical, it's rarely ever in the same place on different networks. A simple shortcut on the client machine is all that's required from the client perspective and the rest of the product is self contained on the server somewhere. To run the 'fix' my small application will perform quickly and easily, I need to parse the path held in the target box of the .lnk. Then perform ifexists for a specific file and then do my renaming/deleting.
To keep it as simple as possible, the end user should just 'drop' the shortcut onto my form then click 'fix'.The problem: How in the heavens can I retrieve the target location from the .lnk into a string without windows scripting host?

I am working on a program where a user either enters "small" or "large" and then the number of toppings. Once the user has done that my program outputs the total cost of a pizza based on user input.
My problem is no matter if I enter LARGE or SMALL into the textbox for size of pizza the output displays "A small pizza with 2 toppings cost: $x.xx"
It also displays the price of the pizza as a small one. So somewhere along the lines it changes everything to be small.
this problem only started occurring after I made this procedure.
Procedure that I believe is causing problem
Function IisUserInputValidSizeOfPizza(ByRef mytextbox As TextBox, _
ByRef errorMessage As String) As Boolean

I'm in the process of trying to create a class that will allow me to create windows shortcut; Im using the following PDF file that gives me the shortcut file structure.
Ive been able to successfully load a shortcut file and parse its Lnk File Structure but now Im on the Shell Item ID List structure but I cannot find the Structure of the ITEMIDLIST anywhere
Furthermore I know I could use the Windows script object, but this is a dependency Im trying to avoid if I can, hence writing my own Shortcut class.

I just have a question about creating a shortcut to my programs path. The problem I have is the program has to run from a Mapped drive.
Example of how the shortcut should look.
Target: R:appapp9app9Filesmyapp.exe @app.ini
Start in: R:appapp9app9Files
So here is the question if the mapped drive path is different every time depending on how the user maps the share how can I tell VB to find the path to myapp.exe ?

I have been trying to work on a utility that creates an Internet shortcut to the URL the user specifies and places the shortcut in the location the user specifies.
I found C++ code (which has syntac errors, apparently, so I can't convert it.), VB6 code (which also had a problem being converted), and VBS code (which is pretty much incompatible with everything).
