Change Colors While Retaining The Look Of A Windows 7 Progress Bar
May 16, 2011
how I can make a progress bar change colors while retaining the look of a Windows 7 Progress Bar. What I mean is, default it show the green. However, setting backcolor and forecolor does not affect the progress bar while XP styles is enabled.
What I am trying to do is make the progress bar the red progress bar if an error is encountered. I have the error solution set up, I just need it where the progress bar turns to red if the event of the download is stopped by internet connection being disconnected.

sometime in 2007, I created a program for a few people that play a game using AOL. I had 75 buttons set up, and when you click on it a certain amount of times, the colors change... click once changes red, click 2 times changes blue, etc. Well, a few of them had lost the program and I had lost my project files when my old HD crashed. and I cant remember what the coding was for changing the buttons colors... One of them had the First one I made, which I had made updates to that (it was a beta), but I dont have the correct files to open anything to see what the coding was that I used..
I have the setup.exe, filename.application, filename.version#.application, and a few other files, but none of them that I open shows any kind of coding at all. Is there any way I can open something to view that coding again? or could someone explain how you can change a buttons color when clicking on it?
What I need is:
click 1 - Red click 2 - Blue click 3 - gold/yellow

I'm currently trying to write a program in VB.NET which fluidly changes the DWM window colorization colors in Windows 7.I first tried to edit Registry values directly, but I had to restart the UXSMS service. This solution was unsatisfying, because of the toggle of the taskbar.
I'm now searching for a function in a DLL such as user32.dll or themecpl.dll which can reproduce the behaviour of control panel when setting the window color.I'm now on IDA, searching for the adquate function (CColorCplPage::SetDwmColorizationColor seems good!).

<DllImport("User32.Dll")> _ Public Shared Function SendMessage(hwnd As Integer, wMsg As Integer, wParam As Integer, lParam As Integer) As Integer End Function

I'm Re-developing an old VB6 program that I wrote years ago.The program has a "feature" where is shells 6 applications 1 after another, the form hangs whilst it is processing all the commands.Is there a way in .net to "properly" queue a list of commands?I've seen numerous things about WaitForExit - but again this hangs the main form and would like to do it a bit more proper this time round.Can I use Backround Worker for this function or have I completely misunderstood?i can queue all my tasks in background worker and after each exit go onto the next app & report progress back into the main form.Is this the best way of doing this sort of thing?Is there any way to change how progress is reported.
