View 7 RepliesI know how to copy a bitmap to a picturebox.image but how do I copy the bitmap to the form?
Example:
I want to create a form 1600x1200 and put a 1600x1200 image on the form to cover the entire surface.
Then I want to put several pictureboxes 256x40 (Tool Bars) at different locations on the form.
If pictureboxA is at x32, y32 on the form, I want to copy from the form at x32, y32 256x40 to the picturebox.image then draw
the buttons on the pictureboxA.
I know how to load a .jpg or .bmp to the form from a file. This won't work for my purpose.
If there is no fix for this then the only thing I could do would be to create the bitmap then save it to a file, then reload the file to the form. I want to avoid this... It takes up time :(

View 1 RepliesI have a very busy form with 120 textboxes on it. They are all named box1, box2, to box120. this form is a template for 10 other forms. I dont want to create 10 new forms and put all these textboxes on it, so is it possilbe to create a new form; form2, form3, form4 etc...and somehow copy all the content from one form to the other and retain the textbox names. I tried to cut and paste and got some strange errors, then i tried in the solution explorer to copy and past there. I got some odd error about Private components...which i did not understand. As you can imagine with all these forms and 120 textboxes on each to create them is a real effort. Is there not a simpler way?

First i need to copy a line of text which i can already get selected this ain't in the windows.form but it's in another program (in my situation it is Inernet Explorer, but also going to need it with others.) so i guess i'll have to make my program press Cntrl+C at the same moment? then it's going to be copyed right? so it'll be on it's "clipboard" then after that i need to get Label3.text = the clipboards text.
i don't have any codes yet, ain't asking you to do my homework but if anyone knows an solution, or can get me some hint. i tried searching all over the web but can't manage to get the buttons pressed at the same moment.
Is there any method or a way to copy a form object to a variable? Let me explain this - We have a method called "Copy" for the Dataset class & you all must be knowing that there is a difference between the below two lines of code: DsTemp = Ds DsTemp = Ds.Copy()
In the first line of code, any changes made to Ds will reflect in DsTemp. However, in the second line of code, any changes made to Ds will not reflect in DsTemp because we are only "copying" the contents & schema of Ds. Likewise is there a method or a work around to "copy" a Form object?

I have two programs.One is a program that is used at the end of the day to submit cash, check and credit card values to the home office.This is used in 10 retail locations. Each store also fills out a deposit slip manually and faxes a copy of the clip to the home office. I have another program I wrote for my church that allows us to enter checks and cash collected during the offering each Sunday and print a deposit slip.
I want to combine these two programs.I tried by creating a new project and adding these two project to it.That works except as I make changes to the screens and codes it modifies the original programs.I don't want this.How can I combine these two projects (code and screens) into one and save it with a different name? I am using Visual Basic Express.

GraphCompare.Panel1.Controls.Add(Chart56)

Is it possible to copy a control that is on the form but also runs off th the form because it is bigger than the form and screen? If I have the height and width of an area I want to copy that runs off the form, any way to grab it? The form will not be minimized and will be the focused program. When i click a button I want to do this. Either copy to clipboard or even just save as an image. I can even have the handle to the control if that is needed.

I am having problems trying to copy data from one list box to another using mutliple forms an a module for the global variables and arrays.

View 1 RepliesI have two forms, both with listboxes, and a module with a global variable called strItem.Lstbox1 on my main form is blank, and lstbox2 on the second form has 3 items in it that has a price on it.[code]...
My problem is that if I use an activated event, I notice that if I have a message box pop up by clicking a button, it will add the item in the variable again. But if I use a load event, it doesn't function at all. I think I still need to be using a activated or load event so the mainform will update when I add items from the other listbox, but I'm still doing it wrong?

I am using multiple forms to create the interface for an application. The main form of the application is the only 'form' used. I am kind of stuck on how to copy the controls to a panel created on the main/different form.UC1 is a public usercontrol, so I don't have to reference every control individually later. mp3ctrl is a public control variable.[code]I have Listbox1 on mp3form. I created a new instance of a transparentlistbox control I have in Form1_Load. When trying to set size/location to Listbox1.size/.location, I get the error of Listbox1 not being declared/inaccessible.I thought by creating new controls on the main form and setting the properties, I could reference the control through the .name, especially since the control has been added to the main form.
