View 1 RepliesMy main Application A starts a 3rd party Application B that runs as a console application. So I don't have access to the Application B source code. When specific things happen in Application A, I can properly launch a vb.net Application C that I built, which properly shuts down Application B, by sending a Ctrl-C signal to it, the same as hitting Ctrl-C in a console window. But I cannot have this occur on Windows shutdown because Application B shuts down on its own before I even have the chance to launch Application C to shut it down. Is there a way to keep some kind of control over Application B when I launch it, or any way to have it be last in the shut down of programs in Windows?

View 9 RepliesI've got a richtextbox control on a form and a menustripitem that allows me to change the font style. What I want to be able to do is to allow the user to type text into the richtextbox control; then if they change the font style using the menu only for newly entered text to change font, and any previously typed text to stay in the previously selected font. The problem I'm getting is that all of the entered text's font style is changed.

View 12 RepliesI believe that this is in the correct forum due to it being about creating an interface item, but if I am wrong then let me know and I'll try and bring this thread to the attention of the mods to be moved to a more appropriate forum. I am currently trying to create a generic navigation control with a similar style to the outlook navigation bar. I have figured out how I would be able to dynamically create the bottom part where you select the menu option, but I'm struggling to figure out how I would be able to create the top part, which can contain any user control that the developer would want.
So basically what I'm trying to figure out is, is there a way to allow for a developer to add controls to a specific area of your user control?If there is a way of achieving that then if anyone knows how to do this;In ASP.Net you have the login controls and with one of them, you are able to have different views depending on whether the user who is viewing the web page is logged in or not. Is there a way of achieving this in VB.Net for a user control that could be set up so that I could have the developer able to switch the view in the designer to show them the view for when a specific navigation option has been selected.
The one thing that I have thought of that could possibly cause a problem is having the capability of knowing when one of the user controls has been clicked, while I haven't figured this out exactly, I believe I should be able to achieve this by having an event for the navigation user control that provides the developer a reference to the control.
While I would hope that I have explained what I'm thinking well, its before my first coffee of the morning so I might have missed out some detail which would help someone to help me if I have then please let me know and I'll provide any details required.Also if what I'm envisioning is Pie in the sky, then let me know and I'll just have to make a base which I would just have to make a more bespoke system.

I am trying to make a style that only gets applied if the parent element of the element that the style refers to, has another specific style. Kind of like in CSS where you can do ".class1 .class2" to specify that the "class2" theme only applies if it is within an element with the class "class1". I do not wish to use any form of external DLLs or libraries for this task. I want to know if it's possible to implement on my own.
I've tried using MultiTriggers with no luck. I have a style that applies to all TextBlocks. I want the textblock to do the following: If the font-size of the textblock is 11 and the parent element's style is "PinnedSuggestion", set the foreground color to "#FF505050". If the font-size of the textblock is 11 and the parent element's style is "Suggestion", set the foreground color to "#FFCCCCCC". The conditions that I have tried to write to make this work, are as follows (the font-size condition is true, but the other one is not). The conditions are inside a style that applies to all textblocks in general.

I'm using ListView control, with SmallIcons style in VB.NET. Icons are loaded fine, but when I start to scroll ListView down or up from scrollbar (clicking from arrows), rowheight drops to about half from normal in next 20-30 rows below/above upper/bottom row (depends from the scrolling position). After 1-2 seconds, ListView is "refreshed" and scrolling continues normally. When focus in on the ListView and I'm moving up/down with arrow keys or PageUp/PageDown, everything is normal. Any suggestions, what is happening? SmallIcons size is 16 * 16. Is it compulsory to set "Blank icon" with SmallIcon size to all rows, when adding them or what? Wasn't like that in VB6, how is it in VB.NET?
View 4 RepliesI am creating an application and am very new to VB. I have 4 buttons on my form which is like my applications main menu. I would like that each of the buttons behaves in the following way when there is a mouse rollover: The Button back color is changed from the default to Red The Button text is changed to Blue, Bold, and increases in font size I would also like all the buttons to go back to their initial state when the mouse leaves.
Another thing, instead of me writing code for each of the buttons event handlers (Mouse Hovers, and Mouse Leaves) is there a way I can write this code once, maybe as a function and then always call it for any button that I create from here on so that any new buttons take on this behaviour.

View 3 RepliesI've written a program which I propose to give a local club, which sadly may be'attractive' to pirates so I propose to build in some sort of anti-copying feature.My idea is to hide a file in a folder somewhere in the club's laptop, then on program start up I'll check to see if that file exists and if it's not there, which it's unlikely to be on a pirates machine, I'll flag up a message box saying that if they have a legitimate reason to install the program on a different machine they'll have to contact myself.By way of nuisance value, pressing the 'OK' button on the message box will cause the machine running, what I'm assuming is a pirated copy, to shut down.I've been looking at the VB.NET forum and MSDN for ideas as to how to achieve this and the general opinion seems to be:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Process.Start("shutdown", "-s")

I have a fully working application which runs in the background while a user is logged in. What I need the application to do, is disconnect itself from the database, save the users settings and close itself when the user shuts the computer down or logs off.I know how to do those things, the issue I am facing is figuring out how to detect when the computer is logging off or shutting down. I thought about using log off scripts to do this but then it would be impossible to call classes and methods from my application as the log off scripts are not associated with my application at all. Are there any other methods of telling my application when the computer is shutting down and then run some lines of code?
