I would like to make the Tab movement can also pressing the "Enter" Key. I have google and found the code which possible to used. But I found its not running fine with me. When I press "Enter" key,it runs fine for the tab movement. But if I put something into my textbox,it only allowed me to put 1 character and it will move next. Because the Textbox 2 can able to put in any kind of numbers. But after add in the code that allowed "Enter" key move the Tabindex,it will move to the next tab index after I lick 1 character.
Code:
Private Sub TextBox2_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TextBox2.KeyPress
If Keys.Enter Then
SendKeys.Send("{TAB}")
[Code] .....
How should I do to make the "Enter" key press work as tab?
I have a winform and i have about 30 labels and 30 picture boxes on it. What i would like to do is fill each label and picturebox with a value and image from a backend database. I could have easily done this in vb6 using control struture , for eg.
for x = 1 to 30 picturebox(x).image = value from database label(x).caption = value from database next x
Is there something similar i can do in vb.net. I search a lot but found only complex programs difficult to understand and too much of OOP.
I have a blank winform. A textbox control with name textbox1 being added to the winform. During the form load event, I retrieve 2 string values from database and store these values into TextboxName and TextboxValue variables of string type.
I use TextboxName variable to store that textbox control name (i.e. currently TextboxName = "textbox1") and TextboxValue variable to store that textbox's text (i.e. currently TextboxValue = "Hello world"). My question is how to set the textbox1.text property without have to resort to following code:
If TextboxName = "textbox1" Then textbox1.Text = TextboxValue End If
how to set the textbox1.Text property without have to use IF...Then construct?
I have been working on keeping things object oriented for my project. Currently, I'm using a .DLL which supplies all of the app's classes to the WinForms project acting as the presentation layer.My .DLL will, for example, return a SortableBindingList(Of T) to code in a form. The SortableBindingList(Of T) comes from here. Let's assume a SortableBindingList(Of Product). Assuming that the .DLL's function Services.Products.GetList() returns a SortableBindingList(Of Product), I can easily do this:
Now, the DataGridView is properly populated with my list of Products. Fine. However, there is no .SelectedItem property which gives me back my object which was selected in the DataGridView:
' Doesn't exist! Dim p As Product = DataGridView1.SelectedItem ' Need to make another DB call by getting the Product ID ' from the proper Cell of the DataGridView ... yuck!
However, a ComboBox or a ListBox does in fact store and return my Product objects intact:
' Valid! ComboBox1.DataSource = Services.Products.GetList() Dim p as Product = ComboBox1.SelectedItem
Another however ... the ComboBox and ListBox do not show all of the fields of the Product object, only the value of the DisplayMember property.Is there a nice control in VB.NET 2008 that I am just missing, which gives me the object oriented functionality that I want which will actually display an entire object's fields and also return that object back when selected by the user?
Visual Studio 2008 service pack 1 comes with Visual Basic Powerpack and has DataRepeatr control. i want to know that how I can add data in this control. i have in memory data. the examples i found on net are about binding DataSet to DataRepeater by fetching data from database. i want to bind in memory data. how to do this.
When I enter values in the textboxes and then press a button (=leave the edit) I find that table (myDataSet.Table(0)) contains all the values I entered besides for the last control/textbox that I was in.
I have a Winform UC packed in a CAB and hosted in an aspx web page using the <object> tag. In IE7, things work. But in IE8, no matter what settings I choose, the control never gets installed. I need to point IE8 to the CAB, download it, unpack it, and run the installer in the client machine, outside IE8. The UC is fairly complex, and requires several DLLs (third party components). The control reads data from hidden fields in the hosting page, and calls javascript functions on the page.
I'm using paging in a WinForm application (VB.NET) using the code below. This works fine, but when I click on the column header this will only sort the rows from one page. If I move to the next page, the sorting is gone.[code]...
I have a groupox in a VB.NET winform app. The groupbox contains a few Labels, Textboxes and Checkboxes. This was created by simply dragging the controls out of VS toolbox. What I need to do is take the 1 Groupbox and at runtime create multiple Groupboxes to display based on user selection. Instead of dynamically creating the Groupboxes and other controls nested inside, is there a way to clone or copy the original one. Then I'd just change the properties. Label text, Textbox text, etc. And the location of the Groupbox in the layout.
I have attached a image of a control that is used within a coldfusion website. Basically I need something similar to use within a Winforms application but have never seen anything like it in .net. How I replicate this control?
I have a list of Active Directory entries (computer names) as a Collection data type. How can I add the computer entries and the pertinent columns to the DataGrid control on my WinForm? I have borrowed this code from some web site to add the list of computer to the pcList which is a Collection type. pcList.Add(dirSearchResults.GetDirectoryEntry().Name.ToString())
I don't understand why my Label and Text controls are aligned when placed on a winform in design mode, but when I run the application the Label and text controls are uneven and spreaded apart. I using VB .Net 2008.
I tried adjusting the TextAlign property on the label control but the problem still exist.
Does anyone out there have any experience programatically retreiving the lat/long from a GPS attached to a mobile PC?team I'm on is currently looking at hardware options--as the programmer who will eventually have to live with whatever is selected I was wondering if anyone out there has had experience writing .Net programs that interface with a GPS?

I am a newbie using VB.net in VS 2008. I took over a vb.net winform application that has a binding navigator in it. The users wanted to add 2 new fields to the form. I added the new fields to the SQL Server 2005 database. I refreshed the Data Source tab in the project. It recognizes the 2 new fields.
I dragged them onto the form. When I go to add a record through the application, it does NOT save these 2 new fields. I check the properties for these 2 new fields under "Data Bindings" and it shows under the "Text" property the correct Binding Source and column name. I need to store these 2 new fields to the table.
I am currently developing a WPF application that will utilize existing WinForm dialogs. I'm experiencing a long lag between the time I call ShowDialog() on a WinForm to the time it is displayed.Even when reusing WinForm dialog objects the lag time is nearly as bad on the second hit. Meaning that the problem isn't in the constructor. have a work around to increase speed or know why the speed is so slow?

I have an application that insert or update Data to an SQL server every 2, 3 hours.I can't use the SQL server itself (creating a new job). Instead I defined a timer which executes the code every 3 hours.The application runs in the server - a winform application.And this is the problem, when I logoff the application is being closed.Is there a way to keep the application running?
I'm a total newbie in programming. I have question about the deployment of winform application. I have created a winform application. But I'm not sure if the users have installed .Net version 4. I have put my winform application at my website and the users will download it to desktop.
My question is: How to automate the process of downloading and install .Net 4 if users have not install it? What are the recommended ways of deploying winform applications to users?

I am trying to load bulk images and trying to put them as a slideshow and it's working fine. Now I would like to have some effects like flip out,ease out effect and fade effect on those images when changing them without using any user control as I would like to do with the existing picturebox.Is it possible to do so?
If so can anyone point me to some resources.As I have done googling and found some useful links and I am placing here that might helpful to someone.And all these have use seperate usercontrols to do, and I am not looking into that.[URL]..

When a user click the .msi, i want a folder called "Your Files", which comes with two small images by default, to be created in C:UsersYourNameDocuments. In short, MyDocuments.
What i did is put the following code in program.cs:
The problem is, this folder will be created every time the user runs the application which is not a good solution, also in this case there is no place to load the two images so it can be loaded while the folder is created. I want the folder to be created once preferably while installing the application, so even when i uninstall the folder "Your Files" and its sub files be deleted automatically along with the program files. I tried to do it via Setup Project, but i couldn't.
I would like to enable my Windows Forms Desktop Application to integrate with PayPal so I can charge my users through the WinForms app. Are there any resources regarding this, or can it be done?
I run the app under current logged in user from the service.To give you background, I have a VB.NET Windows service whose sole functionality is to run a Winform App at a specified time. Apart from that it also sets a system wakeup timer so that the system can be woken up at the specified time, if it goes into standby/sleep, to run the app. This service has to cater to XP/Vista/Win7 desktops on our network. This service won't run on servers and laptops.
The Winform App shows a UI for the user to provide some inputs. If the user does not provide the input within 15 minutes, then it defaults the value and then goes into system tray icon. The user can click on the icon and change the values later (within in a specified time frame and that too only twice).
There is absolutely no interaction between the service and the winform app apart from the service starting the app. It also monitors if the app has been killed by the user/crashed. If it has been killed/crashed, then a new instance is run after 30 mins from previous run.
If there is no user logged on, then also I want the app to be run at the specified time. As I said before, the app has a default timer. So if some user has just logged off from the system, then defaults would be set by the winform app.Now coming to why I am stuck with this design - I cannot use TaskScheduler because it has been disabled on all machines and security team is not willing to change it. TaskScheduler had the option to wakeup the machine from sleep and other things. So basically I ended up creating a service which is acting like task scheduler.
Currently when I run the app.exe via process.start() within the service, its running under SYSTEM account as the service is also running under LOCAL SYSTEM. So basically I am not getting any UI. Is there anyway to run it under the current logged in user? I am not worried about multiple user login as we wont be running it on servers and switch user is not enabled on our desktops. Even if somebody has done a remote login via mstsc, then also I need the run the app and show the UI to the user.

About 5 years ago I wrote this program in Excellusing VBA to compute commissions, income and expenses for the real estate agents in my wife's business.The company is made up of about 50 agents. Part of the program includes a combobox on a main form when a name was selected it also selected, the agent id, and the split the agent was on. It would calculate the split expense that my wife got by multiplying the split percentage from the combobox times the total commission.The main form also contained various other comboboxes, list boxes, and text boxes to gather such info as property address, selling price, titles company, transaction credit,income,Once all the info was complete my wife was asked if she wanted to save the transaction. If the answer was yes, the info was transferred to the permanate database, a commision report for the agent and my wife was printed out, and the temporary database was cleared.
