Save A Collection Of Key/value Settings In My Application's "user Settings"?
Apr 14, 2008I'm trying to save a collection of key/value settings in my application's "user settings" (they're column widths), but while I see no errors, when I run the code (in the IDE) my collection in "My.Settings" is always nothing at startup. I do a "My.Settings.Save" when the application exits, and barring the "serializers not found" errors in the IDE, no other errors occur. When I run my application as an exe, it behaves the same way..
View 7 RepliesFile I/O And Registry :: Save Settings That A User Has Entered?
Nov 8, 2009I'm trying to create an app to launch at start up that will ask you what applications you want launching, or if you want all your favorite app's to start up etc. But before I go any further, I think its crucial to know how to save settings that a user has entered (such as program location and name in this case) so that he/she doesn't have to enter them every time at start up.
So far I have just made this, can anyone tell me how I would get it to save the settings entered?
Code:
Option Explicit On
Module Module1

Play Sounds From User Specified Buttons + Save Settings?
Nov 20, 2008For an application I am building, I need to have the user specify button labels and be able to click on them to play a sound they specify. I would like them to be able to specify the number of buttons, the label for the buttons, and the sound file to be played. I would then like the user to be able to save those settings. How do I go about doing this? Also, how do I get the file they've opened's name to show up in the title bar of the app?

Dec 19, 2011How do you save settings for a DataGridView? I'm making a game, and I want the user to be able to save their settings in a datagridview, and have it opened when he/she looks at the records form again.
I know this is what you do with a textbox, lets say:
My.Settings.Username = TextBox1.Text
My.Settings.Save()
But how would do that with a DataGrid View?

Application.Settings VB 2005 - Save Arrays Using The Settings System Object
Jan 14, 2009I just wondered if you can or can't save arrays using the settings system object. There seems to be no way of entering it at designtime. It seems implied you cannot create new user settings.subobjects at runtime. I'm looking to find the easiest way to save a populated array of PictureBox's. If the only way is a self/custom made/managed .ini file then I need to know so i can start on that but I was hoping to use some of all this phaff in the new frameworks usefully.

VS 2010 - My.Settings - Can't Find File Which Reflects Changes To User Settings

VS 2008 Removing My.Settings - Uncheck The "save My.settings" On Shutdown?
Sep 27, 2009I set up some application settings for checkboxes on an app and then decided to remove them.

VS 2010 HttpWebRequest Changing Prefered Language?
Jul 6, 2009I am using a System.Net.HttpWebRequest class to download source-codes from a website, in an ASP .NET application.
The problem is however, that the ASP .NET server hosting my application is located in the United States. This means that when the application downloads source-codes of a specific page, the page being downloaded thinks that it needs to send the United States version of the page itself.
I need that to be customizable.

VS 2010 - Creating A Program - To Secretly Save When The User Clicks On Save
Feb 7, 2011I'm creating a program and i want it to secretly save when the user clicks on save.
In other words, i have made it so that it saves twice. Once for the user to read (like a fancy copy) and another that the program uses to open up the form.
Currently when pushed, 2 save dialog boxes come up after each other. I don't want this to happen. I want 1 to come up (the user friendly, fancy version) which is the easy part, but i also want the other 1 to save automatically and secretly without asking the user to set the destination.
