View 9 RepliesMultimonitro - Unable To Change Position If Theme Changed?
May 17, 20111.Multiple monitors are connection to one computer and they are extended.
2.My window spans to two monitors (Any window like notepad or settings wizard).
3.We change Visual Style From ON to OFF ( i.e. Changed theme from basic and high contrast to Aero or vice versa)
4.The window which was present on two gets shifted to either primary or secondary monitor.
5.This behavior is ok with normal application but I am developing such application which fails if window moves away.
6.I have added handler to check if user changes theme or visual style using :
AddHandler SystemEvents.UserPreferenceChanged, AddressOf UserPreferenceChangedHandler And in UserPreferenceChangedHandler I have checked if UserPreferenceCategory.VisualStyle changed and if it is changed then I have reset the window position back to old values before theme changed , but still it not reverting back to old position.
7.One strange behavior I observed is, it works if I set break point and step through code , but if I remove it then it's not working.
a. Added handler to catch user preferences changed event.
Private Sub RecordingWindow_Load(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
AddHandler SystemEvents.UserPreferenceChanged, AddressOf UserPreferenceChangedHandler
End Sub
b. Copied old position
Protected Overrides Sub WndProc(ByRef m As System.Windows.Forms.Message)
If m.Msg = WM_MOVING Then
' Console.WriteLine("Window is moving")
[code]...
d . This is additional code which i tried instead of WndProc
Private Sub RecordingWindow_LocationChanged(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.LocationChanged
_windowLocBeforThemeChanged = Me.Location
End Sub

Theres just one major problem i have. Whatever operating system you are using for your current computer (windows 7 in my case) the buttons and tabs and everything else (apart from the windows border... or whatever you all it which i made myself) everything has the modern buttons on it.Hes an in game screen shot :As you can see it looks totally horrible... even the start menu has the windows 7 blue glow effect...I recently found another application (universe Sandbox) and it has the classic buttons even though i am using windows 7.how can i actually make my buttons classic? (without making picture boxes of each button)
Can I Change The Target Framework Version In Express 2010
Aug 15, 2010I am attempting to write a program in Visual Basic Express 2010 that uses .NET Framework version 3.5 instead of 4. (The computers that I plan to use this program on only have .NET 3.5 SP1, and are painfully slow, so I don't want to upgrade them to .NET 4.)I have seen in the documentation that the Express edition does not have the option to change the target framework in the "New Project" dialog. However, when I go to the Project Properties window, there is not a drop-down list for the target framework, either.Can I change the target framework version in Visual Basic Express 2010?

Feb 29, 2012I am trying to make a user account SQL database work with Visual Basic 2008 Express for login purposes, i.e. usernames & passwords. Plan is to host this server so people can login to use the the application and verify they have a valid account. I would like to host all the account information in SQL due to the possiblity of hundreds of users at any given time. I also need the ability to add data to the database for users registering for the first time. The SQL server will need to be able to access the SQL Server databases remote via WAN.

Oct 16, 2010I tried to start using VB 2010 Express with a program I originally developed with VB 2005 Express that I moved to VB 2008 Express successfully a couple years ago. It uses a database file (*.mdf) that is on the computer ( not out on a server). When attempt to run the program in debug mode, I get the following error "An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file C:Documents and SettingsTomMy DocumentsQuizzing StuffQuestion Database 2010QuizQuest ionGameQuizQuestionGameinReleaseQuizQuestionDB.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share."
I first made a copy of the entire project folder that was working in VB 2008 Express and gave it a different name. In VB2010 I opened the project in the copied folder and it said it successfully converted the project. I am able to open the Data Source inthe Designer and see the database structure as I expect. I think the project is still using SQL Server 2005 Express (because it is what is checked in the list of prerequisites on the Publish tab).
Note, I have programmed off and on for many years, but fairly new to using databases and SQL Server.

I have a database with several tables, which I created using the designer. I am able to connect to the database and select data and display it in textboxes etc in vb code. What I have not been able to in code is to INSERT rows DELETE rows or UPDATE any data in the tables. I can do any of these operations using the Query Designer, but I want to do it in code. I can post some code if necessiary, but I thought it might just be some property that I had not set in the designer.

Jun 3, 2011Initially my app worked with excel fine, now it causes my computer to reboot only after Excel has been opened (two or more times). I have opened and closed Excel files 20+ times without running thru either of my apps (they all uses identical code for excel) and it has never caused a reboot or a crash.
run either of my apps and have the app control excel has become a crap shoot, it will reboot my computer. Adding to that I then have to do a manual shutdown because the reboot process after is unstable. (System doesn't respond properly). My code in this app is small, should make for a good example. I can provide the entire project to anyone who would volunteer to test it. (First I need to know how to send the project).

This problem is occuring because you are interpolating your image data to a new size, but along the edges there are no pixels to interpolate and .NET uses black pixels for these edges by default. To fix this you need to use an ImageAttributes class in your DrawImage call....
