I have 2 forms, form1 is my main form and form2 is a "Do this or do this" form (Form with 2 buttons like a are you sure form). When the user tries to close form1 if their is more than 1 tab open, it shows form2 which ask if they want to close the whole program or just the current tab. How to revive what button the user clicks on form2. How would I need to do this?
''Form1:
Private Sub frmMain_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
If (tc1.TabPages.Count > 1) And (My.Settings.AskClseTab = True) Then
If frm_Closemain.ActionTakin = "Exit" Then
GoTo Cont

The problem: as soon as the form loads it becomes "Not responding" I believe this is caused by my do while loop, what other way could I go about doing this?

View 5 RepliesI tried to update the button text on a form from a backgroundworker.do_work event, and it failed, with the usual cross-thread exception message.However, by pure chance, I also tried to update text in a system.windows.form.toolstripstatuslabel also from this backgroundworker.do_work event, and it DOES work. Question: why is this? Is it perhaps because theres some kind of implicit shared behaviour with system.windows.form.toolstripstatuslabel?

I have two forms. Form A and Form B. Form A has a datagrid that is populated from a SQL Database Table query. When a button is pressed Form B is launched that allows you to add a record to the database table. I need for the datagrid to be refreshed and show the newly added record when I close form B and go back to the parent.

I need to know the proper way, or maybe I should say, the different ways to call another form from a parent or preceding form. I am currently using ex: formname.showdialog() to call my next form, but I am uncertain if I should be using that in every situation. [code] Whats the difference between these different methods? (ex: .showdialog() , .show() )I tried both of these to open a temporary form to retrieve a persons name from a database, so as the users progresses through my training program they can keep track of their scores.But, I also call other forms as I branch through my program, from the main page, to a secondary page, to a testing page, to a results page and then back to the secondary page

I have to use Form.Action to redirect to a script that will be picking up values from my page. It is worth noting that this script is external.My issue is that I also want the button that is clicked and has the Action hooked up to it, to also complete some functionality in the code behind first.Is there anyway I can either :In the buttons click event handler, can I set the Form.Action and then call something such as Form.Submit?OR Set up the Form.Action in advance and then somehow have the button posting back before the action takes place.

View 2 RepliesI'm building a form with just a combo box in it that contains a list of other forms that I made. I want to program the combo box so that if a user opens it and clicks on "Web Browser", that form with the combo box will close and the web browser that I made will open. Another example is that if a user selects "Media Player" from that combo box, the form with the combo box will close and the media player that I made will open. How would I program the combo box to do this?
View 3 Replieswhen closing the form, checkchanges() is run in order to check if there is data changes..in checkchanges(), i compare data in database and form..if data in form is not same as in database, it consider data has been changed..thus, if there is changes, user will be promt to save data before close..the problem is, when my form is closing, the checkchanges() always show no changes, even when i made changes..this is because, when data is compared (between database and form), the form is already commit changes in database..that is why , when data is compared, it is actually compare the same value...
For example:
*when form load*
database: employee number = 1009
textbox: employee number = 1009
[CODE]...
That is why checkchanges() always show no changes.because it commit changes to database before it made comparison..what should i do to prevent from commit changes when form is closing?
I have designed a complaints form for my work (free of charge just for my cv). I designed the form for the resolution 1280 x 1024. My problem is when a user with a smaller resolution say 800 x 600 uses it. The form will be out of sync with the screen as shown below (tested on my on computer). So I am wondering is there a way to test the screen size of the users computer then readjust the size of my controls according to the size of the screen. By the way all of my controls are anchored so that they stay in the same place.

I want it so when the "x" button is clicked a message box will appear saying "Are you sure you want to exit?" then if "yes" it closes and if "NO" it stays open. so my code is:

a = MessageBox.Show("Are you sure you want to exit?", _
"Vice Versa 1.0", _
CODE:...................
This should work, no? When i debug my project clicking "no" still exits my program. Is this just because it's in debug mode or am i missing something here?
Also no warnings or errors. Is there a way i can make my game pause when the message box shows? I only have it working to if the users presses "p" on keyboard. But also want game paused when message box shows, without pressing "p"
