Why Does The Way In Which Reference To Another Class Change The Behaviour Of .Value Controls
May 15, 2012
In my code I use two classes. One contains the UI form, the other containsa method to write to a file. During coding I found out some behaviourwhich I don't understand. The code below shows (what I believe to be)the relevant part. The file writing part is substituted by a MsgBox for simplicity.I have the following controls in one form:
NumericUpDown
Button
With the following classes and methods:

I'm wondering what will actually change a class, in the sense that serialized objects of this class will no longer be recognized. If the class has reference to shared methods of another class. Will changing such shared methods also change the classes that reference them?

1. create a blank VS2010 web project called "MySite" targeted at 4.0
2. create a new class object, calling it "class1.vb" (cause it's so unique!!)
3. change default code to read as such...
Namespace MySite
Public Class Functions
Public Shared Function WhatIsTodaysDate() As String
Return Date.Now.ToLongDateString
[code]....
Why is VS asking me to call the namespace twice if I use the "Imports" directive?I'm sure this has got something to do with VS2010 and the 4.0 framework.

I want to change the default behaviour of headers in a datagrid. By default, if the sum of all column's width is lower than datagrid's width, then background color appears on the header and I want to keep it just like header's color, as ListView does. I've attached an image to show you in a better way what I want.

The code below works for the class that I hard coded "XCCustomers" in my RetrieveIDandName method where I use CType. However, I would like to be able to pass in various classes and property names to get the integer and string LIST returned. For example, in my code below, I would like to also pass in "XCEmployees" to my RetrieveIDandName method. I feel so close... I was hoping someone knew how to use CType where I can pass in the class name as a string variable.
Note, all the other examples I have seen and tried fail because we are using Option Strict On which disallows late binding. That is why I need to use CType.I also studied the "Activator.CreateInstance" code examples to try to get the class reference instance by string name but I was unable to get CType to work with that.When I use obj.GetType.Name or obj.GetType.FullName in place of the "XCCustomers" in CType(obj, XCCustomers)(i)I get the error "Type 'obj.GetType.Name' is not defined" or "Type 'obj.GetType.FullName' is not defined"

I have a 'property management class' that contains several functions and properties. I have several other classes that use the 'management class' as a property to derive the value of several of its other properties.Is there a way for me to reference the outer class from the 'management class' functions without having to pass it as a parameter? I ask because several different classes can have this 'management class' as a property and am having a hard time typing the parameter.

If we are within the derived class then ofcource we can use MyBase keyword to access base class's object reference . That's fine , how can we take that base class's object reference outside that derived class's definition.My following code will explain what i want . Actually that is giving error right now, but it is explaining my requirement .
Public Class Base
Public x As String
End Class
[code]....
Actually there is error in ReadOnly Property BaseReference's Getter . Error is "Error 1 'MyBase' must be followed by '.' and an identifier. " how can i get base class object reference in Main method ?

I need to create a new instance of a class that needs a member of the calling class. But i can't pass a reference to the calling class through the constructor.The solution i am looking for is something like this:
Public Class ChildClass
Public Sub New(args)
_MyMember = GetMemberFromCallingClass()
[code]....
I want this to work without having to manually pass any references or variables from the calling class to the new instance of ChildClass.

Is there a way to iteratively reference an ASP.NET control based on it's name pattern? Perhaps by a "pointer" or something?What I have are a large set of comboboxes (each with an associated DropDownList and TextBox control). The DropDownList always has an item selected by default, but the use may wish to submit a NULL value. I come up with the following code to handle three cases: NULL, Existing Item, New Item.
'TextBoxControl & DropDownListControl should iteratively reference their
' respective TextBox & DropDownList controls by the actual control name
[code]....
The problem is, with so many comboboxes, I could easily end up with hundreds of lines of code. I wish to handle this in a more dynamic way, but I do not know if it is possible to reference controls in this way. Say I wanted to reference all the TextBox Controls and DropDownList Controls, respectively.
I can do string formatting with a given naming pattern to generate a name ID for any of the controls because they are all named with the same pattern. For example by attaching a specific suffix, say "_tb" for TextBox Controls and "_ddl" for DropDownList Controls:
Left(item.SelectedItem.ToString, item.SelectedItem.ToString.Length - 3) + "_tb"
Can this sort of thing be done in VB? Ultimately, my goal is to take the value entered/selected by the user, if any, and send it to a stored procedure on SQL Server for insertion into the database.

I am writing a simple control translation function that reads an XML file containing control names and their localized text. Within the application, each time a form is loaded, it iterates through every control and tests to see if that control is defined in the XML file. If it is, it then sets the control text to whatever localized text is defined in the XML file.
There are some tests and additional requirements (i.e. nested loops) for TabControl and MenuStrip etc., but the control that is giving me the most trouble is the ContextMenuStrip.[code]...

I currently do all development work in VB.NET 2008, winforms; but within 18 months will be switching to WPF (for better or worse). I have had great success using Matthew MacDonald's "Pro NET 2.0 Windows Forms and Custom Controls in VB 2005" book. This is an excellent reference focused entirely on the development of custom controls in windows forms. ( Many of the controls that I use have to have a very specific UI look and feel, so they end up being custom.
I'm looking for pretty much the exact same thing, except focused on WPF. MacDonald has a new book coming out on WPF in general ,but not on custom controls. Books are my preferred reference material, but any good web references.

If filename = "iexplore" Then

I'm wondering about a feature in Visual Studio. Personally it bugs me when I open a solution someone else has been working on and it's full of Controls with Ids like "label27" "textbox3" etc. One of the first things I do is either rename them or remove them if they are never referenced in code behind (as is usually the case with the labels).

i am building a tab control (using VS 2010 and 4.0 framework). on Tab 0, this works as expected:
Me.ddUE_B1.SelectedValue = Me.B1.Text <-- changes the combo box selection to what is in the label.
on the other tabs this does not work. when I do a messagebox to show, say, Me.Ea1.Text on Tab 1, nothing is returned.
Is there an issue with referencing controls on tabs that I am missing? In general, I will need to set combo box's value to what is in the database when the form loads.

This code passes a button name ("Button2") and a value (4) to be displayed on it. Can the "UpdateButtonName" procedure be streamlined by replacing the "For Next" and "If Endif" code with something else since the button name is already known? It shouldn't have to check control on the form to see if it is the one I want.

I have a user control that I'm adding to a webpage dynamically. The ascx has a couple of controls that I want to have access to at runtime. I can access the ascx itself, but none of the controls on the ascx are available. I have tried adding a simple public variable and also tried adding a public property to the ascx, but I am unable to get access to either of them at design time (compile errors). I added the following to the code-behind of the ascx control:

I've created some dynamic controls on page load and added an event handler to handle the click event of a dynamic link button. Within the sub of the click event handler, I need to reference some other (non-dynamic) controls on the page and change their value. However, I get a null reference exception - object not set to an instance of an object - each time I try to reference a control on the page (in this case label1). What am I doing wrong in creating these dynamic controls or with my event handler?
