I just started using vb.net express 2008 about 2 months ago.I wanted to design a gui application and the controls for 2008 express look a little plain.
1. What software can I use to design cool looking windows and gui?
2. Does the full version of vb.net come with a better gui designer?3. What do people use to design gui, if you want to have something nice that people would buy?
How can i costumize my buttons so that they look cool??? (i dont want to put images into them, i want to change their shape)

View 6 RepliesWhen I select a standard windows form at design time, then in the toolbox, under the "general" section, there are ellipse, line, and rectangle, but they are all gray and so can't be used and I can't find any way to make them not gray and thus usable. What am I missing? The help system tells how to USE them but nothing about how to make them accessible, it just assumes they are.
I have no problem drawing a line on a form at run-time but I want to drop one on at design time and can't find any way that's my real problem.I'm not a heavy user of VB.NET so I figure there's probably something simple that I'm overlooking.
I am developing a new application for Students Training. how the database design should be? And could you provide a sample application similar to my requirement? Following is the requirement of the Application, The objectives of the program or application are:
Get Information about the total number of students trained in all company's department
Get Information about the total number of students who were either withdrew/ apologized /rejected
Anticipate of the future needs for student's work placement opportunities (numbers of students as well as the majors)
On light of the objectives mentioned above I consider the following data for the application preparation: Company's Department Needs Department Major Number of students for each major Supervisor Mobile Number
If it is possible when entering students details the program will automatically register him/her in the Department that has vacant place and already fit the requirements of the certain department-Internship Information.

View 2 RepliesA little but pissed off at the moment as I have just lost a few hours of work. While I was trying to get a form to resize better (so you can make the form bigger and have all the panels and therefore things inside the panels take up the same percentage of the form), I thought about looking in the designer code to see if anything in there would be easy to change to make it work the way I wanted.
Upon finding what I thought was going to be a good bit of code to edit (code that placed the panel in position), I changed it so that panel2 would find where panel1 was (in the y axis), add panel1's height onto panel1's Y location and use that value as panel 2's Y location:
Me.Panel5.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(0, Panel1.location.Y + Panel1.height)
When I switched back to the visual designer view it came up with a warning page (blue bar across the top of the page saying "To prevent possible data loss before loading the designer, the following errors must be resolved:".Therefore I went back into the designer code and deleted what I had previously done and was a little bit annoyed that I couldn't use that code which I hoped I could.Upon going back to the visual design page everything was gone so I went back to the design code but everything was still there.I sighed in relief and ran the program and everything loaded properly so I decided to quit and reload the project to revert to before the incident occurred to be able to see the design in design view.When I reloaded the project everything was still gone and I then found out that the code from the design had gone too meaning I had lost it all. The code that I created would work in the vb coding, I have tried it.
