I have an add-in application running in Outlook that pops up a form to tell the user something is being processed.The add-in is written in vb. net.The information form has an animated gif on it which should animate as the rest of the program is processing however it stops animating.The code is as follows:[code]

View 11 RepliesI have a form positioned slightly above the taskbar/system tray in the bottom right corner of my desktop window.It's sort of like a pop-up notification.The notification itself looks great,but there's a button on it which resizes the form up, animating the sizing in increments of 5px whilst keeping it's position relative to the bottom-right corner of the screen.
The problem with this is that it doesn't look very smooth. Adjusting Me.Width resizes from the left so you have to then move the form to the left with Me.Left to compensate. Me. SetBounds just seems to be a wrapper for setting those properties anyway.Is there anything I can do to have the form smoothly (or at least appear to) resize outwards from the left of the form?
Is there a way to physically move a button across a form smoothly, like an animation? I would think you would use a timer,

View 9 RepliesI tried using the web browser control for the first time.The problem I had was that the size of the web browser defaulted to the size of the form. Even when I tried to downsize the webbrowser ( via properties ) it still filled the entire form. I also tried to drastically increase the size of the form( again via the form's properties ), the web browser still filled the entire form. how to create a form where the web browser only takes up half the space of the form.
View 1 RepliesI just learned some basics of multi threading in VB.net recently as I came across processing a large List of records and inserting them into SQL database one by one.

Itemlists is a global lists i retrieved from database, everything looks fine to me but when i run this program, I found that the threads are inserting one records 9 times into the database(I have 9 threads in total), which makes me think that maybe i need to specifically assign 1/9 of a list to each thread? Is there another way to do it which doesn't require the splitting of the list, if not , how do i split it then assign?

View 2 Replies2008 Array Processing and Sequential File Processing
View 14 RepliesIm a college student and this is my first programming class, i am having extremely diffcult time with arrays and sequential file processing. Im not asking for the whole program, just something to get me started and hints along as i progress with it. Please help me get started on my program, its due in 2 days.
Here are the requirements....
1. The program must input any number of individual�s last and first names using two separate textboxes.
2. The array of names must be sorted by the last name using a bubble sort. You must code the sort.
3. The program must be able to recall the names from the file and add to the existing list of names so that more names can be added to, sorted, and written back to the file in sorted order.
4. Sort in ascending order: A to Z
5. All names must be displayed in a listbox in sorted order when the user wishes to see them.
6. In the listbox the last and first names must be separated by a comma and a space. Example: Smith, Mary
7. The user must be able to search for a name in the array, using the binary search algorithm. You must code the search.
8. Do not use module-level variables. Instead you may choose to use Static.
9. The program must be designed using Visual Basic 2008

I have a windows Forms app that displays data as it scans.Once you alt-tab or remove "focus" from the app and doing something else (open word) it stops updating. In otherwords it looks like the app has locked up.But it will finish the scanning as normal.But any updates from the scans being shown on the app window are not shown, that is until the app is finished and catches up.

Form A accepts user input, closes and calls Form B when user wants to see results. Form B starts calculations automatically. Meanwhile, it partially displays and can disappear completely leaving an empty window. The calculations can take some time. It seems as if a form needs code to stop running and be awaiting user input before it finishes drawing itself. Is there a way to circumvent this? Aside from the aesthetics, I would like user to see progress reports posted to status bar and without needing to press another button (so removing automatic start). Form B has only a return button for input.
I have tried various places for Me.Show and addressing the form's controls from the modules it uses.
The following code does create a form within a form and does place NotePad inside the child form. You have to manually start NotePad prior to execution (I work on that later) but the code does work¦ My problem is now I want to manipulate the properties of notepad i.e. focus, size, location, etc. but I cannot figure out how to reference notepad and its properties.

Ok, this might be something stupid that im not doing right, but here is my problem. Im moving from my 1st form, a small window, into my second form, that is full screen, but it takes like 4-5 seconds to load the full form. It sucks because during this 4-5 second load time, parts of the form at transparent and it just look bad. I think it might be because i have around 35 labels and a few other objects on the form. Does anyone know a way to make this not happen? Im in VB08.

I'm trying to make a form that takes user input 3 times, and each time compares it to the correct Answer... which is an array of {"C", "D", "A"}.Each time the user's input matches the correct answer ("strCorrectAnswer()"), then I'll add 1 point to intUserScoreCounter. I'm wondering why this code is returning an error (hilighted in blue)? Can I not compare a String to an Array?

'Handles Enter Answers functionality

I've been busily working on a solution for my JSP page problem using an AxBrowser instead of a WebBrowser .NET control. However - the problem seems to be that whichever approach I use, the "back to results" button on my work's JSP page produces nothing but an empty white page in the results frame. I've compared keystroke for keystroke in WebBrowser control, AxBrowser, and IE. The in-built solutions all fail, but the standalone IE works perfectly.Might the problem lay in the way the form is handling the processing of the web pages in the in-built solutions? Could it be a problem with Asynchronous processing?If so, would it be advisable to try the WebBrowser control in a BackgroundWorker setup? It must be something to do with my application, since IE processes the form correctly.
View 4 RepliesI have been trying to place a form inside a panel. This has been achieved by[code]...
In the IterationForm, I have values being calculated and displayed as and when an operation is being performed.
In the panel it shows only the blank form. I need to have those values displayed as well.
I have tried using MDI parent with my menustrip1, same thing, that is the form being displayed without the values.
I would like to place a form inside of a form, how would I do that?It would be like photoshop, where the tools form is inside the main form, or the filter form is inside the main form.
