I'm working on this advanced web browser with my friend, and we made a favorites feature. So, it works and all that, but, after I close the executable file, it doesn't save anything!
[Code]...
How do I load the URLs of all favorites in the Favorites file and how do I make favourites in the file? This is the code I have:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim favouriteFiles() As String = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Favorites), "*.url")
For Each currentFile As String In favouriteFiles

I have a form that has around 4 txtboxes. Data is inserted into these boxes and then a "Save" Button is pressed. I have a GridView added to my form and want to view the entries. The issue I am having is that when I click the save button the data doesn't show up in the DataGridView until I close the application and then re open it.
[Code]....
The form is an About Us form so has nothing on it only a text box and a OK button.
[Code]...
Why won't the button close the form? I'm puzzled, I tried another button just in case with the same result. UPDATE: I set a break point on Me.Close() and it isn't reaching it when I click the button, I created a new button and the same thing happened.
I have started to get into web browser development within VB.Net 2008. However I have seen many tutorials on making favorites and all that, but when I put in every exact thing, with stingcollection etc, it never saves! Some of them don't even work period.
I want to make it like within a MenuStrip I have One Called Pages: Then there will be Favorites. I want the ability to add ATLEAST 50 favorites. No matter how much work aslong as it works.
[Code]...
Also I have before got a code work where if you Click add which is in the favorite menustrip you can add it and it will work, BUT it doesn't save. The rest is totally crap. I have to redo this code? Is there an easier way?
I have set up a notify icon for my form. I want to make it so that when the user clicks the close button that it doesn't close the form it just takes it to shows the notify icon. They can exit the program from the notify icon. Can someone tell me how to keep it running?
View 2 RepliesI am creating a web browser and I would love to be able to view IE favorites and add, delete, rename, and all that to them too.I want to be able to say add to favorites and a new form comes up saying url and name, in the favorites list it reads as the name but when you click it goes to the url. This is what I have so far, never even started the code because I don't know were to start.
1) Menustrip with a view favorites to show and hide it
2) Add favorites button that has a mouseover effect to an other picture
3) Left Panel thats hides / shows
4) List Box that the name is Favorites
5) a combobox that has a go button, you could also press enter and no beep sound comes up
6) I got a tabcontrol web browser page
I have a program that outputs a file. I want the user to be able to just double-click the output file and launch the program, just like Word and Excel. In Word for instance, one doesn't necessarily have to open WORD then click on File--> Open and locate another Word doc. He can just go to the folder and open the Word doc. I want to implement the exact scenario in my program.
So far I have tried creating TextFile and added it to the Resources. On FormLoading, I simply I stream-read the Resouce file, but I can't write to the Resource on FormClosing, since the Resource is ReadOnly. Also, the Resource is built & compiled so I suppose you can't add anything to it at run time.How you lunch an output file without launching the Executable program that created it?
I have a situation where me.close() doesn't close the form. I have a form with a button with the code seen below. What happens when the button is clicked is the new form shows, but the original form(calling form) is still there. When I go into debug mode, I can see the me.close() execute, but nothing happens (calling form stays open). When I close the second form both forms close. If I comment out the call for the second form to open the first form closes without problem.

I write an HTML file with MS Word, and use it on my application. The problem is that I need to close Word or Visual Studio in order to save the file, or compile the code, because each one reserves the file permission rights. The html file is only written by word, and only read from VS. At compile time, the file is copied to execution directory. Is there a way to give both programs simultaneous permission rights?
View 4 RepliesI'm currently in the process of building a text editor type program, and have run into a brick wall. I haven't done VB in years, so I may just need a little reminder on some things. I have coded everything so far as far as opening files, saving them, changing fonts, colors, etc. However, I'm looking to add a Close button to my menu strip that will just close the currently opened file, and not the entire program, while also ask the user if he/she would like to save before closing the file, and then if they select yes, it will show the save dialog, and if not, it will go ahead and close the currently opened item.

View 5 RepliesMy Splash screen is acting funny. I may have inadvertently changes some detail somewhere, but I'm not sure where. I have a main form and a splash screen set in the "My Project" screen. When I test the program the splash screen shows up, as does the main form - simultaneously. The main form functions properly, but when I close it the splash screen doesn't close and the application runs forever.
I've tried removing and replacing splash screens to no effect. I've tried using the minimumsplashscreendisplaytime method, but nothing changes. Is there some page of information somewhere, independent of any individual splash screen, that manages all of this?

View 3 RepliesBasically my script doesn't properly close Word, and it still remains open. Then when I try to run the script again it says its Read-only as its opened..What I need it to do is - put the TextBox1 info onto the DOC - and print it. I don't want it to save, as it's a template. I've tried saving it somewhere else as a "temp" to get rid of this read only but it still doesn't work.Another issue also is that it's trying to close the document before the printing dialog disappears, so I've had to put a timer

I made a Vista Aero -style form for XP, but when using it, the application won't close. The FormClosed and Disposed events fire, but not the HandleDestroyed event. I tried to get around that by handling the Disposed event and calling Me.DestroyHandle(), and it worked, but not if the user resized the form so that it caused an IndexOutOfRangeException in BlurImage().The code is attached.
View 2 RepliesIs there a way to have a form within a program that doesn't dispose when you close it? I have a form in my project and a menu item to show it. When I declare the form globally and show in menuItem.click, then the click event breaks because the form no longer exists. When I declare the form within menuItem.click, then this creates a new form every time I click and that's not what I want.
View 1 RepliesEnd A statement which as far as i know doesn't close you program properly and hides errors. Right now i'm being forced to use end because i don't know how else to close my program properly. I'm not sure where my problem is but some of you should be able to fix it. I'm trying to make a game using directx with a game loop. This code is the skeleton of what i'm making.
Public Class Form1

Me.Show() 'Make the form appear
Me.Focus() 'Give the form focus

This code runs alright because end is being used but if you rem end out the error which it's hiding comes out. The error is "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." I'm not totally sure but i'm guessing that the error is refering to the form.
I have an executable that I was able to get working on all XP machines by registering all the .dll's associated with it.On Vista, however, I go through the exact same registration process but right when I open the executable it goes to a "WindowsApplication1 has stopped working" dialog. I registered the DLLs in the SysWOW64 folder. I also ran Dependency Walker which came up with IEFrame.dll as flagged, don't know if that is relevant though.

I have a form with a listbox. I have controls on the form that can add items to the listbox with the click of a button. I already have the save file, open file dialogs working properly but I want to add something else that works with them. Lets say I open a file and the listbox adds all the strings from the file. Now, lets say I add something to the listbox and instead of saving the file, I just close the whole form. How do I make my program ask if i want to save the changes to the file when it is about to be closed? (I only want it to ask that IF there are changes to the file).
View 9 RepliesI have 2 Forms.Form 1 is main and holds a button that should show msgbox with date that is selected on datetimepicker which is on Form 2. Date shown on msgbox should be in short format (dd.MM.yyyy.).On program start datetimepicker should be reset to today and msgbox should show today date unless user selects another date on Form2. If user goes to From 2 and changes date Form 2 should save new value and msgbox should show it after button click on form1. How do i do this?I made myDate parameter in settings of type "DATE" and i didn't set a value.on form1 load i have:my.Settings.myDate = Today on Form2 load i have: datetimepicker1.Value = my.Settings.myDate on Form2 closing i have: my.Settings.myDate = datetimepicker1.Value
This sets date on picker correctly, but when i go to form2 and change value, then close form2 and reopen it it still shows date that i have chosen, but msgbox shows initial value.
