I just started using vb.net express 2008 about 2 months ago.I wanted to design a gui application and the controls for 2008 express look a little plain.
1. What software can I use to design cool looking windows and gui?
2. Does the full version of vb.net come with a better gui designer?3. What do people use to design gui, if you want to have something nice that people would buy?
How can I enable the cool vista aero effects within my vb.net application? I wish to make portions of the form, or prehaps even the whole form, have the transparent glass effect.
I'd like to verify if an image control has an image loaded . If it does , I want to unload that image (and load no image) , but if the image control has no image loaded , I want to load an image . Is it possible ?
If ImageMY.Image.Equals(Nothing) Then ImageMY.Image = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile("C:ImageBlaBlaBla.jpg") Else
I have a search engine that will use a webservice to search through my database to find 3 specific things. I don't even know if it will work like this, but I have a dropdown list on my main page to select Product, Feature, Description. From what the user selects, the webservice should then go to an if statement to use the correct SELECT statement and find results for the search.
Will someone help me figure out how to fix what I've written to make it work? Please don't be too critical, I don't have a lot of experience. I have also been researching SQL Injection because I have a lot of code that is vulnerable so keep that in mind when you look at my code.
I can't get the blue squiggly lines to go away that are underneath the DropdownList1.Value instances on the WebService page.
WebService:
<WebMethod()> _ Public Function GetCompletionList(ByVal prefixText As String, ByVal count As Integer) As String() Dim Feature As String = DropDownList1.Value Dim Description As String = DropDownList1.Value Dim Product As String = DropDownList1.Value
[CODE]..........................
Default.aspx page - Here I need the dropdownlist to tie to the database somehow.
I was looking at making a program which can then build other seperate .exes, is this possible? For example the user types their mail username/password into my program then this builds a seperate one which just connects to their mail with their username/password.
I am doing a project on the CRM application which sending and receiving sms using the vb.net language. I am no where to conclusions of my project because I could not build the application. I have found many examples but the problem some of the examples some uses the sms gateway or the AT commands. I could not differentiate which one to use? I have a dateline to finish this project of mine.Most of the example does not look like a CRM application.
I have a little bit of trouble figuring out why I am getting these error messages. Here is the error messages and then the code will follow behind it.The code is taken directly out of the book "ASP.NET 2.0 Everyday Applications for DUMMIES". [code]
relatively new at using Visual Basic, and I'm trying to make a decathlon calculator. My question is how do I make a blank array, and after each person is done calculating their decathlon score it adds the persons name, school,(which are both in text boxes) and score(which is calculated into a textbox) to the blank array
I am trying to write simple database application and try to understand ADO.net as well.say I have 2 table
1. table emp with the following field (empId, empName, empPhone, salary, deptId)
2. table dept with the following field (deptId, deptName, deptLocation, deptManager)
emp table is link to dept table via deptId.so I try to build a form with 2 data grids the top will be dept data grid and below it is emp data grid.I try to do this with out using the wizard so I know the flow and understand how to link together step by step.
in the form load section:
dim conn as new system.data.sqlclient.sqlconnection(connectionString) dim daEmp as system.data.sqlclient.sqldataadapter dim daDept as system.data.sqlclient.sqldataadapter
[code]....
I am kind of stuck on what to do next, I think the next step is to creat dataview from my understanding before mapping it to the datagrid, but on data grid documentation it say it can only filter datarow, it can't filter data column on the dataview.
I would like to be able to display deptName, deptLocation, no the whole column on the table to data grid, and when user select a record from dept datagrid then the employee info (empname, empphone, empsalary) is display on the second grid (again not the whole emp column table).
the user can update, add or delete emp record from employee data grid by clicing on update button, on update button callback routine I need to put something like.
daEmp.update()
from what my understanding then I need to create update, insert and delete routine and attach it to daEmp so the data grid know how to sync with sql server, so when the user say add new record since the data grid doesn't have all the field display, i.e deptId column is not on data grid, how the table know what the dept id would be? I'd like to learn without the wizard 1st since once I know how everything is link then it is easier to debug since the wizard create lots of file and it's everywhere which make it very hard to understand what is happening for someone new to vb & ado.
Okay Is there a way In vb.net to create an exe from a predefined script, for example rather than writting the methods and subs into the codedom code could I just have a textbox that I could put a script into and then have that built? (obviously omitting button presses and things.)
Im not worrying about ui's at the moment just and exe (hello world style )
While I'm trying to build a solution after I've changed a little in its code it gave me an error and even when I've removed the code the same error appears.
"Unable to find manifest signing certificate in the certificate store." (That is the Error and it either stop building or run last successful build.)
I'm interested in building a GUI CAD software in VB.NET, but I don't know from where to begin. I've looked in Audesks online help but there are no instructions, neither tutorials on the net for building something like this. When I'm saying GUI, I mean a work area, where you can use blocks from autocad and build a plan/circuit/PCB or other stuff like this.I'll be glad to see is this possible, and what kind of components can be used.

I am working on a program. I created a database and used it to create a dataGridView in my program. I clicked the table adapter for the program and tried to create a new query.

I am building a autocomplete on my textbox. Really simple and it works really fine. But I like to do the next thing. When there is a match in the list and I will click on it. then i like to have a function.
