Assign Controls In A GroupBox To A Thread?
Nov 27, 2010
1) Which one works better? BackgroundWorker or Multithreading?I have to do lots of processing in my application, I'm not too sure how the two of them works.
2) Can I assign controls in a GroupBox to a thread?Let's say I have to login to a certain forum twice with different accounts, so in GroupBox1 (thread1), I'll be logged in with username "asd", in GroupBox2 (thread2), I'll be logged in with username "zxc", and I have to do lots of processing (mostly html parsing) from there. Is this possible without stressing on memory usage? I'd like to keep my program memory usage under 10k.

I have recently started to try to convert some of the applications I have written in VBA in excel into stand alone programs. I don't have any formal programming training and I am learning the hard way that VB is really not very close to VBA!! I am trying to change the properties of radio buttons in a groupbox when a certain event occurs. In VBA I used this code:

I have a windows form with a groupBox and several controls ( textboxes, checkboxes, one grid, labels ) in the groupBox. I want to make the form resizable , such that the controls would resize themselves when the form is resized instead of overlapping each other.I tried docking and anchoring in several ways, but I am not able to achieve this.

I am adding a several controls to a groupbox dynamically, but I can only see one of them. I am changing the location for each one just a little so so they should all be visible. When I count the rows in "dtOptionGroupOption it returns the correct #.

I created a groupbox and then populate it with buttons during runtime. I also created a button, say Button1 to loop through the groupbox and delete those buttons.[code]...

i have a list of links on a form and when you click one, it will set a specific groupx visible to true in a set position. So I have about 8 groupbopx control on this form. When I drag one out of the way and another in the form in design time, it seems they stay inside one another at times if they overlay. I don't understand this. Then some will not show at runtime depending where they arer left from design time even though I set the position to be in the form. This is completely different from vb6. Why are they staying inside other groupbox controls rather than being independent?

I have the following
Private Sub ClearAllEditableControlsInGroupBox(ByVal GB As GroupBox)
Dim myControl As Control
For Each myControl In GB.Controls
[Code]....
This code doesn't work because the strings returned in the select case block don't match any of the cases that are coded. I need a better way to do this, I imagine there is a more efficient way.

How do I turn off the ability for controls within a groupbox to inherit the groupbox properties. For example, my groupbox text has a fontsize of 9 and bold. Every Label control that I put into the groupbox defaults to the same. How can I change that?

In runtime I'm programmatically changing the forecolor to all label and radiobutton controls placed in the groupbox.
The only thing missing is to set the groupbox text/caption forecolor, but as soon as I do so programatically all controls in the groupbox inherits the font type and color making the text hard to read on the Button controls placed within the groupbox.

I'm working on a winform which contains several controls like textboxes, radio buttons, datagridviews... All of these controls have been added to a main group box called gbDataEntry. My problem is when the user is seeing the form, I set gbDataEntry.Enabled = False but I want to enable some controls like DataGridviews so the user can scroll them. After disabling gbDataGridview I set DataGridView1.Enabled = True but it seems that the datagridview does not respond to this line. Why?

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:

i have a sort of problem when i try to add some linklabels in my groupbox. I used this
Me.Controls.Add(Groupbox3)
Groupbox3.Controls.Add(FlowLayoutPanel)
I can only add 4 linklabels no matter how big is the groupbox, i tried autoscroll but nothing. How can i do to store minimum 20 linklabels in a groupbox? Here is the whole code i used:
Imports System.Net
Imports DevComponents.DotNetBar.Controls
Imports System.Windows.Forms[code]....
Is there any way, maybe with a specific reference to put a control that records what plays wmp activex and to save somewhere on your computer?

Here is my setup:
Form1.vb - contains RichTextBox1 and BackgroundWorker1, which calls a the Control module.
Control.vb - calls Display module.
Display.vb - calls Form1.SetTextBoxText("text here").[code]...
My observations: When the Display module calls SetTextBoxText, InvokedRequired's is false. Also, if the BackgroundWorker1 (which is in Form1.vb) calls SetTextBoxText, it works. But if BackgroundWorker1 calls a module that calls SetTextBoxText, it doesn't work.

I'm trying to dynamically add a control to a form from an event that is raised from an asynchronious socket's thread.
In other words, when I get an OnDataArrival event is raised from the socket thread, I raise DataArrival event in my form. The form's DataArrival sub then tries to create and parent a control.
Whenever I try this, I get the following error: Controls created in one thread cannot be parented to a control in a different thread.I know a bit about delegates and invoking, and I think that's how to solve this problem, but I don't know where to declare the delegates and how to use them.
Ideally, I want a delegate/invoker to handle the DataArrival sub in the socket class so that everything that happens after that will be thread safe. Can this be done?

Here using VB .Net 2008. I seem to be having trouble getting group boxes to appear when I click a radio button.
For example:
CODE:
This indeed brings up the first radio button however I have other groupboxes underneath which with the same code will not appear when the radio button is checked.
Eg:
CODE:
The second groupbox does not appear and is directly behind the first groupbox. The Top code doesn't seem to be working either.

In main thread I create panel(s) (based on some configuration), and then in the next step based on the file type (like video, ppt, image...) I create appropriate controls (dynamically) to show on the forms.
The creation of the control will be done in separate threads (for each file). After creating the control, it throws an error when I try to add that control to the panel (which was created in the main thread), something like cross thread violation, control was accessed from one thread other that it was created.
Can some one please help me in this regard? In this scenario, everything - creating the panels and controls - will be dynamic. Nothing will be static.I tried some of the articles found here on StackOverflow (like, control.BeginInvoke() .. etc), but wasn't able to solve my problem.

In my program, I created a list of a class that contains 5 picture boxes, a button, a label, an identifier, and some other stuff. I've got roughly 65 of these in this list. I'd be stupid to hard code all that in. The identifier is a 2nd way of identifying which specific location I'm working on.
Anways, all this is created at compile time. Works perfectly fine.
I then manually start a background worker that pings a collection of components. Based off the success of those pings, the picture boxes are enabled or disabled. Basically a proactive way to see if a collection of devices over multiple locations are actually working.
It's the background worker that fails because of thread-safe calls.

This is the error message I am getting:
"Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'Panel1' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on." The reason I am getting this error is because I am opening up a new form and then calling these three things:
Panel1.Show()
Label1.Show()
Label2.Show()
why I get this error message because it doesn't occur normally if I open Form2 after closing Form1, it only occurs when I open Form2 after closing Form4.
