I'm trying to make a program that adds a menu item when right clicking files.I got a C# code here:[URL] and converted it to VB.
It's working perfectly but the trouble is, it adds a menu item to folders and not files.
These are the registry entries i added:
Private Const MenuName As String = "FoldershellNewMenuOption"
Private Const Command As String = "FoldershellNewMenuOptioncommand"
convert them so it adds the menu item to a file?
I am using ASP.NET with VB.NET as background code. I have 8 ImageMaps in my webform Estimator.aspx.Each ImageMap represents a car part (Front Bumper, Rear Bumper, Mirror, Hood, Sunroof, DoorShell, Headlights, Tail lights) and I have a dropdownlist ddlChosenParts. When the user clicks on any of the 8 ImageMaps, I add the PostBackValue to the dropdownlist ddlChosenParts.The problem is that if the user clicks on the same ImageMap twice, the PostBackValue is added twice.I want to check if ddlChosenParts contains the ImageMap's PostBackValue and if it already contains it, do not add it again. That means that if the user clicks more than once on the same ImageMap, it's PostBackValue is only added once in ddlChosenParts.I have this code but i'm getting an error: Value of Type String cannot be converted to ListItem.

View 4 RepliesI have a ListView on one form that i am wanting to read the items and display on a different form. My code:

I don't know what this means. i want to ADD each listviewitem from one listview into another listview.
I currently have a line of text in my listview that is too long for the current width of my
listview, without increasing the width of my listview, is there a way to add a newline within the
listview line item so that it's 2 or 3 lines long so there's no need to have the user scroll to see
the text?
I have an Access database with a Parts table. I'm using tableadapters in my project. A datagridview on my form is filled manually in code. One column of the DGV contains a columntype of combobox. I've got a bindingsource on my form whose source is the Parts tableadapter. The combobox column is tied to the bindingsource and is displaying fldDescription.
The part descriptions can be changed by the users, but the original part description is saved in another table that is used to fill the grid. If part "widget" gets changed to "widget, large" I can no longer display "widget" in the combobox of the grid. I need to know how to be able to add it to the bindingsource so I can display it in the combobox. I don't want it saved to the Parts table though.
I'm new to databasing. How do you make it so you can add an item to a database on a form, Then follow a link to another form which has the database on, then what you put in on the previous form will be there?
How's it done? Sorry - Haven't been using VB very long >.<
I cannot figure out how to add an item to a listbox with a specific value. I am able to add a text description without any problems, but how can I give it a specific value?

View 5 RepliesFor the last couple of days I been trying to add items to a listbox from another class within a system.timer.
They just don't appear in the listbox. I don't get any errors. The items just don't get added :S.
I have:
Form.vb
make object of Control
Control.vb
Here I have a system.timer
In the Timer_Elapsed method I do this: form.listbox1.items.add("hello")
But it just doesn't work... When I add a new item to the listbox1 from the constructor or another method that has nothing to do with the timer it works...
I have been out of VB since VB 6, but am back into it to write a basic app. I have created a listbox and am able to add data to it from a textbox via a command button. However, I want to give the user the option to simply press the enter key after they have entered the info the textbox, instead of clicking on the command button. I tried calling the function the command button is using from the "ENTER" event on the textbox, but all that does is execute the function when I click on the textbox? I'm sure this is very simple. What am I missing?
