Forms :: Create Tabs Copy Controls From Base Tab To New One?
Nov 3, 2009I have a tab (created in the form developer) that contains about a dozen controls. I need to be able to clone this tab w/all controls. I have no problem creating the forms. However, the controls don't copy. This is true whether I create the new tab with a string:
TabPages.Add(MO.Name)Or with a tab object assigned to the base form:
Dim NewTab As New TabPage
NewTab = MyBaseTabPage
TabPages.Add(NewTab)
In either case, my first tab has everything it should have the other tabs have, the other tabs have only the tab name.Basically, I want to be able to clone my base tab into n number of tabs.
Copy The Body Of An Email, Including Formatting, And Paste It Into The Body Of A New Email Such That Formatting Is Preserved?
Jan 13, 2010While I understand there are properties of MailItem that would allow one to programmatically create a formatted email, I would prefer the ability to copy the body of an email that is already formatted to my liking (bolding, italicizing, embedded pictures/tables, set margins, etc.) copy and paste it to a newly composed email such that this formatting is preserved.

How To Create A Similar Structure
May 28, 2010I'm trying to create an enumerable class, similar to System.Drawing.Color - My goal is to have places in the code where I can define a variable as the type of my structure, then be presented a list of static values to pick from.I'd also like to use this for a property of a UserControl.I don't know if I'm using the right setup here with the class, structure, etc.I'm just trying to mimic the Drawing.Color class.I'm creating a Public Class called Person.Inside it, I have two Public ReadOnly Properties for Name and Age, their corresponding Members, and a Constructor to create a new Person.Second, I have a Structure called Persons and it has two ReadOnly Properties: Billy and Sally.[code]In my attempt, I get the full freaking .net class library in my intellisense list. Using Drawing.Color, I get a nice pre-defined list of values to pick from.No extra methods.No constructors.Just values.

View 5 RepliesCreate EventArgs And Return Value Similar To FormClosing?
Dec 6, 2010This is for a WindowsCE project,
Windows WM6 does not allow you to hook in WndProc easily as this has been hidden, I've built a class that inherits from MesageWindow, which allows me to receive Messages as intended.
What I'm trying to do is create an event that will return a value Boolean bypassing base.WndProc(ref m);
basically saying I've handled the event it does not have to, similar to how the Form_closing event would work e.g e.Cancel will cancel he closing off the form.
I've not finished my WndProc function as of yet but you should get the picture.
Code:
public delegate void WndProcEventHander(object sender, WndProcEventArgs e);
public event WndProcEventHander OnWndProc;
protected override void WndProc(ref Message m)

Create A Small Paint Component( Similar To MSpaint But Not The Same Thing) In .net?
Jun 5, 2011I'm trying to create a small paint component( similar to MSpaint but not the same thing) in vb.net.I have a panel that holds the background image and a picturebox over the panel that I draw on. I'm using graphics to draw shapes and I have my own custom double buffer, meaning that I draw on the picturebox while the mouse ismoving and on mouse up I draw the final image on the buffer image and on paint event the buffer image replaces the picturebox image.also, i have set the form properties to enable double buffering
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.ResizeRedraw, True)
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer, True)
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint, True)
Me.UpdateStyles()
my problem is that no matter what i've tried the picture box keeps flickering. as long as the mouse is moving, the paint event keeps getting called and the image flickers like crazy what i need is more ideas(or pseudocode) on how to avoid flickering.
.net - Given A Large Number Of Objects, Create Multiple Forms In Designer For Them Or Use Code To Create The Forms?
Dec 29, 2010If I have a large number of classes, each similar to the other in certain aspects (they all share a common base class, but each does things differently), and I need to create Windows forms for each to allow easy changing of their values through a GUI? Create one matching form for each object in VS' forms designer, Or Use code to create the forms dynamically at runtime.
#2 makes the most sense to me, because a lot of these objects will share very common features of the form, notably "Ok" and "Cancel" buttons. But one object might need to draw a textbox on the form while another might need to draw a combobox. Not to mention, if I want to put icons on the "Ok" and "Cancel" buttons, I'd have to do this for each copy of the form in designer, and that sounds like it could get out of hand quickly.But is drawing forms through code sane? VS' forms designer is pretty sophisticated and designed to make life easier. Am I wise to consider ignoring its functionality and diving into the trench warfare of forms design through code? Or are there examples of automating form creation based on an existing object's properties?
Formatting VB Forms Before Loading?
Mar 24, 2011I am designing a yahtzee game in Visual Basic. I am wanting to save the form's background color and the picture boxes dice so they can be set the next time the form is loaded. The user can change the background color of the form and choose between several sets of dice. I want the last color the form's background color was and the picture of the last set of dice used placed back in the picture boxes of the dice the next time the user opens the Yahtzee game. I am trying to do this in a module, with generic collections of all the picture boxes on the form. Am I able to do this before the form loads?

Converting C++ Printf Formatting To / From String Formatting
Sep 30, 2010I have some VB .NET software that interfaces to a load of old (but sound) COM objects. The VB provides a GUI for the COM objects, part of which consists of setting various options on the COM objects - several of which relate to string formatting.I have a simple pair of VB .NET functions that convert basic %f, %d, %g formats to/from .NET equivalents using a large select case covering specific common strings, but they don't cover all formats.[code]Before I start diving in and making it more versatile with some parsing, does anyone know of a class (eg VB or C# .NET) that provides a decent ready-made implementation? Or perhaps some regexp wizadry could be used?

Forms :: Copy And Rename From Subfolders?
Oct 21, 2011I have an excel sheet with two columns. One column is the name of a file and the other column is a name that will be added to the filename once the file has been copied.
Example:
Column B = test.tif
Column A = find
The result will be = find_test.tif once the file has been copied and renamed......
All is good, however, it appears my program is not looking in subfolders and only in the main directory folder for the images.
What I have so far for the copy portion:
'copy the files specified in column 1 of the first sheet of the Excel workbook
'from the folder given by txtSrce to the folder given by txtDest
