Windows 7 Resize Warning?
Feb 11, 2010
Not a query, just mentioning a problem that might affect others, assuming it is not just some wierd bug on my system, that is. Perhaps someone can check this out.Under screen resolution, Windows 7 has a "make text larger option". On my machine at least, this has the effect of increasing the sizes/positions of any controls set in design mode. Not just in executable, it actually changes the values in design mode.
If you are relying on rescaling sizes/position set in design mode according to screen resolution only you may get incorrect positions when this mode is in use.This affects both VB.net and VB6.

When trying to compile my newly created ClassLibrary class 'Validator' that validates entries made into TextBoxs or MaskedTextBoxs, I get the following error:
Warning 1 Namespace or type specified in the Imports 'System.Windows.Forms' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found. Make sure the namespace or the type is defined and contains at least one public member. Make sure the imported element name doesn't use any aliases. C:Users erryDocumentsVisual Studio 2008ProjectsMillerClassLibMillerClassLibValidator.vb 1 9 MillerClassLib.
Following is the first part of code in the class:
Imports
System.Windows.Forms
Public
Class Validator
[code]....
What can I do to resolve this problem? The classes in this class library will be used to validate forms data input in a number of varied projects.

I like to know how to make the forms buttons and text and data... auto adjust when windows Maximize or minimaze..because when its big I can see everything fine and when I restore to a smaller window the buttons are on the bottom and cant see them... Basically I want everything to look in the same position whether its a small window or big or at least that it has scroolbars if I see it small.

Is there a way to automatically resize a windows form to fit a smaller display? I created a program on a computer with a 12" display, everything works fine. However, when I load the same program on a computer with a 8" display, I am not able to view all the contents on the windows form. Is there a way to correct this without manually resizing all the contents on the form?

I'm starting work updating an UI for one of my company's applications and I'm running into a sticky issue. The parent control contains several panels, each of which can be turned on or off depending on user input.
The final panel in the user control contains another user control which gets resizes according to a toggle switch. Essentially, it "opens" up more information.
While the child control (ChildControl) is docked to Fill inside the parent control (ParentControl), when I add height to ChildControl I can't get ParentControl's height to get updated as well. Currently I'm handling the ChildControl.Layout event in ParentControl but I can't seem to reach that code. To resize ChildControl, I'm calling Me.Height += 200 in ChildControl.vb.

Is there any way to disable a specific warning. For example, in one of my classes are re-implement System.ICloneable.Clone. After doing so I now get a warning that states, "'System.ICloneable.Clone' from 'implements System.ICloneable' is already implemented by the base class 'XXX'. Re-implementation of function assumed." Is there any way to remove this warning from the Error List

I'm compiling a VB.Net 2.0 app (created in VS2008) using msbuild, and now I've added a generic return type, it's giving me the following:
Warning: Type library exporter
encountered a generic type instance in
a signature. Generic code may not be
exported to COM.
Having just spent ages removing all of the previous warnings, I don't really want to add a new one. Any idea how to get rid of it (aside from not using generics)?I don't know what details I'd put in the attribute, or what number to put in the project-level ignore list.

I have an app with a timer control, and the interval is set to 60000ms (1 min). so every min i have some event happen. thats pretty simple. however, i want to have a 15 second warning that the event is going to happen. so basically 45 seconds after my timer starts, i want a message such as "15 seconds left until event x happens".
would i have to use 2 timers? i guess im lost on the logic. i know how to use the timer control, but i have been googling all night trying to figure this one out. i have tried using 1 timer set to 45 seconds (for the warning) and another timer at 60 seconds(for the event) but they go out of synch after 1 iteration and will not consistently stay 15 seconds ahead of the other. i dont want to post any code i have, because it is all trash and i want to start over from scratch.

I have set up my form using with the languages and I have store the texts in the resource. I have debug the project and everything seen to be fine. I found that there is a folder in the project bin folder. The folder was called zh-chs. I have changed the name from roject1.resources.dll to testdll.dll and moved to the bin folder. I have added reference in my project and I have deleted the zh-chs folder. Suddenly, I have found a warning sage.

warnings got me thinking about old issues that always goofed me up when I was writing more VB.NET code.One of them was the fact that the compiler didn't warn if you declared a Function but never did an explicit Return statement or assign to the Function name. Running Visual Studio 2008, I just made a small experimental project, and it seems as though the behavior has never been fixed.I created a Visual Basic Console application, with the following code:
Module MainModule
Sub Main()
Dim test As Boolean = TestWarning()[code].....
I also went into the Project Settings and turned On Option Strict and Option Explicit.I also set the Warning Configurations so that "Function/Operator with no return value" was set to Error.I compiled the project and got no warning, and no error on the TestWarning() Function. This seems like a great place to put a warning, because it will default to False, and you may have simply forgotten to do a return. C# will error without a return statement. I thought that VB.NET did the same thing with the "Function/Operator with no return value" configuration. Is this a bug, or is there something I'm missing?
Edit: Further Experimentation
Function TestWarning() As Boolean
If DateTime.Now.DayOfWeek = DayOfWeek.Monday Then
Return False[code].....
If, and nothing in the Else, there is also no Warning/Error. It will simply take the default, even though you likely intended (via programming style) to have an explicit return. In this case, I explicitly returned False (which is the default for Boolean), so it's likely a hidden bug that I should have returned True in the Else.

I wrote a small VB6 program to monitor the status of a Shared Network Drive. In this case it's an external hard drive. The drive is used for backup. The program is invoked automatically when the computer is booted and runs minimized.
If the backup drive is not turned on or otherwise not functional then the program changes from minimized to a normal window and displays various statistics and a warning that the backup drive isn't working.
I want to make the warning much more prominent, like minimizing the program that happens to be running or displaying the warning window in front of the progrmam that happens to be running. I want something really noticaeble. The computers don't have speakers so I can't play an warning.wav .

I misidentified the problem. It is actually like this:[code...]
Code analysis complains about this because ms can be disposed twice. That will only be true if zStrm, which takes the memory stream as an argument to its constructor, disposes of the memory stream when it cleans up. That seems like a totally nutty thing for the disposer to be doing. Does it really do that? Would a class that takes another class as an argument, be so uncivil as to dispose of that argument?
I suppose it would, since the alternative would be that the memory stream might not be disposed at all if it was created in the constructor like this:[code...]
I guess the only real question is whether or not I have to worry about this?

Using VS 2005, I create a new VB .NET class library project. The project created is automatically populated with an "Any CPU" build target. I create a COM visible object, check the register for com interop and build the project. The resultant assembly is NOT registered in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTCLSID. Instead it goes into HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTWow6432NodeCLSID. I have a 64 bit machine and 64 bit OS. I would swear that with VS 2003 on such a setup, I got an entry in the 64 bit registry hive.So I went to the configuration manager and specifically created a x64 config, copying from the (only) Any CPU config. But when I build I get two BC40010 warnings. One was for System.Data.dll. So I went to the project properties/References tab and then removed "System.Data.dll" (no mscorlib entry there - the other BC40010 warning) and then ran the add command and re-added System.Data.dll thinking that since I was working on the x64 config, the IDE would bring in the correct assembly.Still I get the warning. Why doesn't the IDE understand the meaning of the "x64" configuration the wizard created? The MSDN tells me I have to fix this:
To correct this error Examine the quoted error message and take appropriate action.Compile the program again to see if the error recurs.If the error recurs, reinstall the Visual Basic compiler.If the error persists after reinstallation, gather information about the circumstances and notify Microsoft Product Support Services.
