I'm trying to apply a code to a group of labels (actually all the labels but one in particular).I used to use:
For Each lbl In My.Forms.Form1.Controls
If lbl.name.ToString.Substring(0, 1) = "x" Then
'Code
End If
Next
I am writing an application and I do not know how to reference a group of controls inside a group box. I will include the code I have written so far and a picture with a detailed explanation as to what I am trying to do. Feel free to comment on any discrepancies that you may notice in my code.
Code:
Public Class Form1
' The following class-level constants are used
' to calculate the price of the model
Const decCOUPE As Decimal = 18000

I have a windows form I want to show in two languages. When the user clicks a language button it switches to the other language.
It works fine, when you click it all the labels change to the other language.
Only problem is labels inside a group box do not change.

How can I group controls in my Form?
I don't need groupbox or panels, just something in the code...
To make it clear:
I have one form, Form1.
I have 3 buttons: Button1, Button2 and Button3, and I have 2 labels, named Label1 and Label2.
I have 2 "groups", in group1 there is Button1, Button2 and Button3. In group2 there are the two labels (Label1 and Label2).
But how can I program that, that if I write (for example) "Group1.Hide()", then everything In Group1 hides (visible = false). And so on with group2.
I programatically add a group of UserControls to a flowLayoutPanel control.
sometimes I need to destroy that group of controls, but have no idea on how to do it.
assigning the flowLayoutPanel variable to nothing only erases the pointer, but the controls remain in the window.I have found a page in MSDN saying that the best way to destroy a control is to call the DestroyWindow API, to destroy the container window. But I don't want to destroy the container window.
I have 53 text boxes in my windows forms application. I need to save the "text" of all the textboxes into a single file. Is there a way, I can control all the textboxes as a single textbox group and use its properties.
For example: Can I write something like :
For i As Integer = 0 to 52
Textboxgroup.text = TextBox(i).Text
Next
??
I'm playing with a simple string replacement editor for editing VB.Net functions outside of VB. Is there a way to apply VB.Net code formatting to a string?
For example. The txtboxCodeEntry looks like this:
If strVar="dummy" then 1 else 0 Endif
I would like it to "autoformat" to:
If strVar = "dummy" Then
1
Else
0
End If
The formatting would match whatever formatting VB.Net does when you're editing code in the Visual Studio IDE.
I was using VB 2008 to code using applications. An example of something I coded was hangman. I was wondering if its possible to somehow use the application code and apply it to a form.So for example with the code below how would one go about putting into a form? If this isn't possible, what are the main difference between form/application coding? How would I go about coding hangman for example on a form, what are the main difference between the two??

Maybe if I knew the right termanology, I could find the answer myself.. I am going to run a fairly long list of "If"s that will determine if certain controls appear on the form or not. In it's simplest form would be:

View 4 RepliesI have a group of controls dynamically added to a forms with a name like "OptionID_#" where the "#" is unique number.1st I need to check if these controls are checked/unchecked, but am having a difficult time even finding them to make that first check.I thought controls.find might work, but Controls.Find ("Option ID_" True) dues not seem to find my controls.2nd I need to get the "#" from each of those checked options.I think that Split(conControl.Name, "_") should work to get me two different parts one with the OptionID, and the other with the "#".Still stuck on the first part though of actuall locating the controls I need.
View 9 RepliesBetween testing sessions on my windows service, I'm changing code (little tweaks here and there). For more detailed debugging, I've had the application send messages to a text file everytime it does something (executes a new procedure, catches an exception, etc).
I've been doing this for a while, but ever since yesterday, it appeared that the new code wasn't being used. To test this, I changed the name and location of the log file that the service would use, and re-installed it shortly after a new successful build. As it turns out, the service is writing only 1 message (about a timer being started - which is only supposed to happen after it's logged the start of the service) to the old text file. It looks to me like my service isn't using the new code in my Service1.vb file, Like the old code has been cached or something, and the service is installing from that.

I am programming in VB 2010 and have a question. I have some code that currently only applies to one text box. As you will see, I have sub setup to handle multiple textbox events. My question being, Is there a way to take this code and apply it to all textboxes that are being handled?
VBCode:

I have a form with many buttons on it and I would like to loop through all the controls in a group control and find out which button is clicked.
I plan to use the click event of the button and I know it's easy to create a click event procedure for all of the buttons but would like to avoid that.
The group control is called GroupFilterButtons.
So basically what I'm trying to do is write data from an XML file (a "save file") back into the form. My controls are in all different group boxes (makes it much easier for showing and hiding groups of controls dynamically). I thought about and am putting each control's Parent name into the file, but can't figure out how to get that parent name back into the DirectCast within a For...Next loop so it will actually cast the data into the control.

I went and created a tab containing a good amount of controls, most of which are contained within what I'll just call the top-level group box. Now I decide I'd like the text of the top-level group box to be bold, but nothing else. When I set the top-level group box's font to bold, however, all of the controls contained within it become bolded as well, which is what I don't want. I can set each individual control's bold property to false, but it seems like there should be an easier way to do this.
